Default Tuning help

Hey guys, I need some help here to get me started and save me some time in the long run. I am gonna begin tuning my car tomorrow since I put the new heads and cam in and I need some advice for getting the idle smoothed out and such. I know I'm not giving you much to work with here, but I just need some basic, general advice on which tables to attack first. I put some stock 6.0L heads on and the cam specs are 222/218 114. Any and all help is GREATLY appreciated.

PS - this is just a baseline tune before the turbo goes on in a week or so, so it doesnt have to be perfect. I just want to get all the kinks out.

2. Idle Air in Gear: 60C and up to 8.6
3. under Fuel ( or airflow for HPtuners) Main VE Table: Multiply column 400 rpm by 60%. Multiply column 800 by 80%. Multiply column 1200 by 90%.
4. Ignition High Octane Table: Add 2 deg to all points 400 to 1000 RPM, .08 to .32 g/sec

You may also want to raise you idle RPMs if needed.

Timing is the key to make Ls1's idel.

Shoot for 25-28 deg of timing at idel.




All times are GMT -5. The time now is 10:07 AM.
