Best Tuner For My Needs??
Before I start, thanks to anyone who will take the time to help me w/ my question.
Just recently purchased a 99 Z that I was wanting to start modifying. I pretty much have a goal in mind of producing a street friendly 400 RWHP. I know with the LS1 that this is easily attainable. The list of planned non chasis mods are below.
TSP True Duals
Pacesetter Headers (Non Emissions)
K&N FIPK (Came on the car)
3:73 Gear
SF 2500 Stall
LS6 Mani
Patriot Heads
Crane Cam
80mm TB
I had ordered the Crane Cams Power max tuner, because it had most of the things I was looking for. I had it overnighted for today and went to use it and apparently Crane does not support certain production months of 1998 which included my build date of 8/98. What I am looking for in reprograming my PCM is ease of use and multiple features. I have had expieriance w/ some tuning software on the market with my other vehicles, but most of what I see available for the LS (HP, LS1 Edit, EFI Live) leave me sitting here wide eyed and totally confused. I get lost at this Xs that + This type software. What I am looking for is the following.
Control of tourqe management
EGR Delete
Idle control
Rear O2 Delete
AIR delete
Abuse Mode Delete
Ratio Change
Ignition timing control
Top Speed Limiter
Trans Shift timing
Trans Pressure Control
Fan Control
TCS Control
What I like about the Crane Powermax is that I could throw in one of there cams and have a preset program to work with. U guys tell me what u think will give me the control of the above mentioned.
