Default 08 Vette, TVS 1900, auto

Had the opportunity this past Friday to tune one of the first (I think THE first) LS3 TVS kits from MTI. The car was an auto, with 1 7/8ths KOOKS long tubes, and made right at 400 rwhp on my dyno previously.

This go round was the TVS kit ONLY. No meth, no other mods. Tune was done with EFIlive's virtual VE, and then we dialed in the MAF. VERY conservative tune. 11.5:1 A/F and about 17 degrees of timing. Runs were made with an UNLOCKED converter as I was afraid of ripping the clutch out of it.

I would imagine locking the converter would be worth a few more. Meth wold be worth a nice chunk of power!!

Customer will be in the market for a trans and converter real soon, I do believe.

Enjoy!!

Very nice setup on that. How was the heat soak on that setup during consecutive pulls?

Heat soak wasn't too bad, but I didn't hot lap it either.

That looks great! Instant rip your face torque, I'm sure it'll be tough to get traction if he/she isn't easy on the throttle

Very nice results, especially considering the conservative tune, no meth, etc.

Ed, in EFI live does it have it's own virtual VE already set up or do you have to create one like in HP tuners?
