Default First Start Tune Recommendations
Previous combination was 226/230-113+3 EPS cam, hand-ported 241's, LS6 intake, and ported / polished throttle body. I tuned it myself with EFILive and it ran, idled, and started great. Over the winter I installed true duals, Fast 92, Nick Williams 92mm TB, PRC Stage 1.0 LS6 heads, and 230/234-113+2 camshaft. Just wondering if I should make any adjustments to the tune for the initial start or just fire it up and see what happens. Let me know what you guys think.....

I'd light it up, data log on start, and see where you need to make changes.

Yeah just start it up, and see what it needs. It may already be close. Just a bit less airflow needed due to the larger throttlebody

Thanks guys, will do.

Jesse - I'm still running the basic mail-order tune you did for me a couple years ago, with some fine-tuning & tweaks of my own. Thanks.
