Default hptuners help.

I live in Shoreline but have been working on putting a turbo kit on my 3.8L at my dad's house in Marysville. I bought HPTuners Pro and have learned a few things, but I think I need some help. I have an Autometer wideband.

I want to get it safe enough to drive and then continue learning and fine tuning.

If anyone around here knows the program well enough to get it safe in a day or two pm me!

Thanks.

Can you flash a factory 3.8 blower tune in it to start. I have not played with a 3.8 yet

hmm...not sure. Are cpu's from FWD cars the same as camaros?

Main thing I just want the car safe enough to not blow the motor. Need a good AFR and no KR. I think im running a little lean right now, and that is obviously bad.

How much would you normally charge for something like this Ellis? ...if you were to tune a v6.

there is a list of my specs on my fQuick page HERE

I am not sure if you can to be honest. For some reason I thought it was a FWD , Brain Fart LOL

You should look into it though..

I am not sure on that WB you have there I have not used one from Autometer. Autometer is usually good stuff but I have not used that one.
