tuning options for an Auto R53?

Just wondering what my tuning options are on my automatic r53 2006 and is it even possible? I'm from Arizona so a place near there would be great. Have everything I want done, just want a tune for reliability.

Sure you have found it by now but yes you can get a tune. I would guess you could get it sent to you from RMW if there isn't a place nearby. If you have the Dinan package I would think it has a specific tune? if you have different cam/pulley or any other mods, getting a tune in person would be a good idea..

Any r53 tuner can tune it...most say dynoing a auto is more challanging due to the fact it cannot be locked in a gear to redline, but tuners do it all the time. As for tuning for relilibility, chat witj the tuner, and make sure they check the afr, and don't try to set any records....
