IMO let them do what they do, and do some tweaking of your own later.
or why bother having someone else tune the car?
it also might not be a good idea to let them "experiment"
with your car and a tool they are not familiar with.
i have had bad tunes by people using "other" programs and either they had no
idea what they were doing or the tuning tools they used where inferior.
just my opinion but be careful because it sucks to drop good money
on a crappy tune and find that you could have done a better job yourself.
you having efilive already, gives you the ability to check they`re work
but gives you little comfort after spending your money.
IMO
after reading this it sounds like i can put my old pcm back in the car and tune over the hp tune that is in it i was told (by the A$$ that tuned my car) that they would not work together and fry the pcm which is correct also can could efi to flash over any others ie. hypertech

You should be able to flash over it, if it's not locked.

If it's an HP custom tune, then make sure you write over it using full flash.

Don't they use a different seed with their custom tune? If so, you won't be able to flash over it using EFILIVE.

make sure you save the tune before you reflash just to have it,
even if it is not the best tune.
