How to Tune a Car in NFS Pro Street
“Need for Speed: ProStreet,” or “NFS: ProStreet,” is a video racing game from 2007. The storyline concerns Ryan Cooper, a street racer on a quest to beat Ryo, the man who disrespected him at his first race. Besides racing, players also need to purchase vehicles, upgrade them with new parts and tune them. Tuning in “ProStreet” makes it possible to customize vehicles to use in different kinds of competitions.

Tips & Warnings
If you have the money, use “Quick Tweaking” to purchase entire packages of car parts.
It's possible to create up to three separate configurations for each vehicle.
Keep the parts on your vehicles at around the same levels or there will be handling complications. For instance, first level tires and suspensions can't handle the power that comes from third level engines and drivetrains.
