Mike i've been working 24 hour shifts,..since thursday night. I'll be doingthis until next tuesday...I have little time to post, let alone time to talk on the phone, and give any sort of good advice. In the meantime, i'd write the most understandble post possible in the "tuning" section, with concerns. as I am NO TUNER. For that, i'd speak with the pro's.

What could you have plummed wrong? The wastegates are plummed to a good vaccum right?...the BOV's should be coming from the same source.

Not sure how much help I could actually be to you.

I figured you've been working mad hard lately, you could use a laugh.

It took me forever to find a stormtrooper's head with the correct angle...


I've got a few other ideas brewing. Stay tuned.

found a tuner!!!!!!!
xXx motorsports Pensacola .the only issue is they use efi live.i wish i had found out about them sooner,lm-1,hp pro ,mail tunes,diablo and all the study.
i am selling all of it!!!!! getting 60lb. injectors.and use a lc-1 w* my O meter for afr.2 bar pcm goes too.
next ,with any luck at all i can fix all the little stuff, build a hood and burn some rubber.
tunner says 600hp is a maybe @ 8 psi 60's are a must.
first one to ask turbo size, not brand


i still have a **** load of questions for you guys with this set up.
big Storm around the corner so i'll tune it after

Sounds like you found a good guy.

I would say that keeping the HP tuners or the Predator is a good idea, as either will allow you to datalog and/or make tweaks to the tune if necessary.
I'd also keep the LC1 for sure, as a wideband is a must in a FI application.

I can see no reason why you wont make over 600 to the wheels, V-Series made 615 with 7psi from a ProCharger....

Keep us posted.

yes, 60's are a must.

I'd keep the wideband but, if you wanna sell it, let me know. I need to buy one at some point.

Best wishes with the storm bro,...

i have been trying to tune my car for months.first diablo,then mail order,now hp tuners.allot of lessons learned on the way.i just ,NOW,Finally found a ls tuner 45min. from my house.
down side is they us efi live

i have a 1 bar and 2bar operating system lic(4 credits) . on the latest hp tuner pro package(4 credits remain).i all so have the lm-1 wide band(wired up), Lucas 42# injectors.my pcm is a 2004.

i would like to keep them all together and end up with a stock pcm for a 2004 ,lc-1 wb ,or like, to go with my moats O meter ,60# injectors.
i know this is not in all likelihood going to happen.that would be to easy!

i will look at all offers to get me there from here.
if i remember i need to put a number in

my stuff all together lets say?$1200.00 minis what i trade back and i'll throw in a hardened left out put shaft.

i am told the pcm will only work for 03-04.if you are just starting out on a c5 and need hp tuners and injectors you are going to make out good.

thanks mike in mobile






this is what i posted in corvette forum,i would rather keep it all needed or not.

that wife of mine is pretty sharp,when i told her $450.00 more she asked what about all that other stuff?
considering she is the only one that works, i will make her happy as long as i get to keep going



wish i met you in November before i started reinventing the wheel

what do you think?

sorry not an option
i must deal with the what have and who i am
i got sober on a drunk to Mexico,got my head together in about a year and came back to finish up raising four sons.that was in 2000 .life for me is pretty sweat like it is.i am just use to quiting way before this.as you know i started this f**king car last year.

i did get a good 30 min. log tonight with full boost threw three gears ....without any codes,backfires or misses
i just do not have the Patience for tunning.and they said it would be easy

the new plan is to go to xXx motor sports in Pensacola give the man the 450 and be done with it.

i do not need hpt pro or a lm-1,the 60#ers are correcting a learning error;one of many.selling the pcm was just so the 4 credits in it didn't go to wast.

i have a moats O meter i am using for afr so i'll need a controller to

give me some feed back i can use to sell this **** and get the right ****

you have know idea what it's like to be me ,

thanks for hangen in there,you guys on these forums are the only game in this town
