Default The Godfather of Tune!!
Well, it took long enough, on my part as I am not computer savvy. Had my wife that is, help me with the master of tune Lew! We got this done and just starting the SS was a treat. I can't wait to take it out next weekend and burn the road up!! All I can say is All Hail Lew, Master of Tune!!!

You should notice a big difference. Those headers throw the fuel maps off something terrible.

Want to join the club after this weekend when my headers, and TEP trans are installed.
Just wondering though, will Diablew tune mess with the TCM reprogram from Triple Edge? Or will other provisions need to be made with the tune?

hahaha.. you're not at that point yet Mel...

first, you have to put on about 50 miles on the car...

then your first log I need, is a steady driving/cruising data log, so we can check your part-throttle fueling and make sure that's all dialed in first...

after we get done with that, then we'll move on to WOT fun...
