You have hptuners..its easy to go to 2 or 3 bar. Have you been tuning NA for awhile. I got my hptuners year or so ahead and got used to it. Mostly its just taking the afr down in the BE table . You set pe to pretty much 12.8 and be to like 11.8. You dial in your ve to make sure you are getting target afr. You dial back timing depending on your setup in the boost regions. You of course have to dial in for your injectors.
There are a few turbo tunes in the hptuners repository. Be prepared if you are a noob for a pretty long learning curve . You will find hptuners forum pretty much filled with pro tuners who like to keep things secret at thats their bread and butter.
I can tune my eagle talon turbo in minutes and run 160 pound injectors.I can dial in the injectors in seconds with two numerical values global fuel and deadtime. Our f bodies have whole bunch of places to enter data to correct properly for even 60 pound injectos and past 80 or so its pretty much hit and miss and tweak and tweak.
Tuning a big power FI car can drive you nuts. If you have pro tuners near you mgiht be best to use one. I have really no experienced FI tuners near me so pretty much had to teach myself. My car is running pretty good now but its had its moments.
Hptuners is not really very user friendly. Its more as said geared to pro tuners.Dyno is handy handy for tuning as well .You can tune on the street or track but its not as easy as dyno tuning.I will be using some dyno tuning next season when car is finished up .No dyno in my city is pain as well ,few hundred miles away to nearest one.
So if you have hptuners go on site and look at repositories and some of the how tos. There are how toos including video of how to convert to 2bar.3 is pretty much same.
