Had my 2006 Impala SS tune Yesterday
Since I had good luck with my Vette I figured I would take in my LS4 Impala SS down to CMS. Car shift great now and way more torquey. This car has some mufflers and a drop in K&N so no major mods. Ryne stayed till 8pm after a long day making my daily driver fun!
You can see this car has some pretty good low end tq for a FWD
Mustangs need to be on the lookout now!

So far it is still on. I kinda like still having the 4cyl mode to save some gas. These cars seem to tuned overaly lean from the factory. We were seeing 15.5 Afr on the stock tune. Which creates knock so you loose some performance.

hahaha... depends on your driving scenario...
I drive 50/50 city/highway... and around town on weekends and I got MORE mileage when I disabled it...
went from 18.6 mph up to 20.5 mpg...

WOW! That's insane. Right now I only get around 15.8 MPG's unless I do a significant amount of highway driving.
This really looks like a great mod to do. Again, nice numbers rzuff!

Cms can handle a LS4 no problem. The tuning isn't any different then any other LSx based motor. They also can handle the Internal Parts. These Impalas and Gran Prix use C6 Corvette heads so it's not a problem.

I really don't think you have to worry about warranty with the tune. It can be flashed back and the Impala aren't really what they looking for mod'd

Impressive numbers for a nearly stock impala! I live in Houston, TX and I'm having trouble finding someone realiable. I hope to get numbers as good as yours when my time comes.

You guys are getting great mileage. I'm stuck around 13.6 - I do mostly city driving and have a heavy foot but geezzzzz...
Maybe I should drop off my car to my mom for a weekend and see what she gets, lol.
