Tuning out codes Hey guys,
I'm going to be installing some MAC mids w/ ORY along with a Borla catback within the next week or two. I also plan on swapping plugs, wires, and thermostat while I'm working on it.
I was wondering if there is anyone local that can tune out my SES codes for the lack of cats and lower my fan temp for the thermostat. Is there anything else that needs to be tuned after adding that exhaust setup? I don't want to pay a lot for a dyno tune before I get my LS6 intake, just something to get rid of the codes while I save up.
Can anyone help? Know somebody that can?
Thanks

Mike Norris at Next Level Performance. 
He tuned my car after I removed my Cats, and he also reset the fan temps, removed torque management, adjusted my shift pressure, etc. He does a very good basic tune for only $150!
Plus if anything happens to go wrong w/ a tune, he will look into the problem and fix that problem, and not charge you a bunch of money. Most of the time if it’s something small he will do it for nothing.
He also responds to your emails/phone calls ASAP!
Here’s his number: 407-616-2518

I plan on getting a full tune after LS6 intake, but I was just hoping someone local had a laptop tuning program of the same year that could delete my O2's and adjust my fans for the time being.
I know there were a few guys on the V6 boards that tuned out small stuff like that for local guys for dirt cheap.

For a little more they will do 02's, fans, etc but not just 02's

But even for $40 i dont think its worth it.

For the simple stuff you just need to find someone who has EFI-Live or HPTuners with a full model year license for your model year. I do it for free on '98 F-body's, but haven't justified the cost of adding another full model year.
I don't know who has EFI-Live locally, but I know mrr23 has the '99 & '00 model years for HPT. Perhaps he can help you out.
