Compare this to MS. After the initial installation the tuning is free - just hook up a laptop and tweak the numberical tables. You can even install an O2 sensor in the exhaust, and get some software (I think it's called MegaTweak) that will tweak your tables for you as you drive around (the closed loop feedback corrects the values somewhat, but you want them to be pretty close to begin with).

HOWEVER, it must be said that for a BONE STOCK B20 or B30, that the D-Jet does a darn fine job of metering the fuel out. If you are having problems with it, it will almost surely be easier to fix them (computer, wiring, 3 or 4 sensors, injectors, fuel pressure - not much there really). D-Jet (and most other OEM computers, really) just can't adapt well to modified hardware, that's where MS really makes a difference.
