If you are talking about E38 ECU then you are incorrect there IS torque management.

Early LS1 ECU no.

Thats not just your opinion, it's fact. But that attachment isn't "M6 TM" it's Engine TM and just shows the amount of retard commanded to get the desired tq reduction, which as far as I can tell is non-existant seeing as all the tables are maxed out on a stock tune.

I've seen and used many write ups on A4 TM delete that forget these tables.

A4 or M6 these need to be zero'd out.

I've logged A4 and M6 cars with these tables stock and they pull way too much timing. M6 gets the signal off the CPP switch.

If you think I'm wrong, just don't post again because I really don't care what you do.
I won't say you're wrong. I havent logged my car with the stock tune so I can't say one way or the other but I'm gonna now when I get back in town cause I've been wondering about that. It seems to me that's just a reference table to determine how much timing will be pulled, but where is the table that commands the tq reduction? I would like to figure this out as much as anyone else so don't take my comments as arguments.

Out of curiosity though, if you really dont care what I do why tell me not to post again?

All I'm saying is that those tables give the VCM (or PCM, ECM whatever you prefer) the ability to pull timing in an effort to reduce torque. Zero them out and they can no longer pull timing.

Heres one more, nothing even to do with TM, these need to be brought out of the negative too. Mine are at 10 (not -10)

I'm just a dumbass though, I ran 12.6 with a lid, exhaust and my own tuning.
It's an '01 camaro with 93,000 miles. Mods? lid, exhaust. People say my tuning ideas are fucked up so I guess I won't consider it a modification and won't mention it.

Not trying to be a smartass but it works for me for some odd reason even though people disagree.
Well like I said, I'm not disagreeing with you cause I dont have any facts yet. That 12.6 is a good pass but a friend of mine ran a 12.4 with only headers and exhaust, stock lid, stock tune, stock everything else... so it's nothing amazing. And I'm currently running consistant 11.5's with bolt-on's and a tune (mine) so don't think because you ran a 12.6 that you are some amazing tuner... not saying you aren't... just saying

one thing i have gotten from this post is that i need to get a tune... The best i can run right now is a 13.2 with ls6 intake headers and custom x pipe with two dynomax bullet mufflers dumped... I keep gettn told that you dont need to get a tune unless you do something major like a cam or something bug internal wise....

Even on a stock car you will gain a little something from a tune. And any significant change in airflow will benefit from a retune to get the a/f back on track. My car still has the stock motor with all the bolt-ons and my stock airflow maps were way off, which means a tune would help a good bit with a full bolt-on car. I dont have any comparisons between my tune and stock but I had a dyno tune done by a well know performance shop around here and I still gained .2 in the 1/4 when I did my own tune so I would imagine I gained a bit more than that over stock.

A before and after dyno is always a good idea to see what you've done. Do you just want a tune to address TM?

You don't absolutely need a tune, but you will benefit from one. I'm going to do a log here in a few minutes to see if any timing is pulled with all the TM tables stock.
