Yes, we have tunes set up for just about anything. Gas and Diesel. The Ctsv one is set up very cool. I us the custom os5 from Efilive on them, so they are exact.

I didn't realize you had to turn the inputs on manually... I knew they were there all along, but don't know how to activate them. "Bin file of the radio.." is this the firmware of the NAV unit or accessible through programming via Tech2?

Also, I'm thinking of picking up my own EFILive cable for tweaks in the future. Would you be able to send one of your 'baseline' CTS-V tunes via E-mail, for a fee? Yes, I want the added tables and fun features too.

I would thing the radio is accesible through the tech2...it is on most of the newer cars, well its not direct access but when your in the "body" section some of the stuff is in there....either way I'd still like to be able to do this.

Yes, i give out the tunes for free for anyone that buys EFILive from me. As for a price on Replacement computer and tune it is only $158.10.

Bin file means that i pulled off the flash and read it and minipulated it.

they should be able to help....not many mods available for the car though, the ecu restricts everything...but you can do exhaust and intake...I think they even came out with some headers now....good luck.
