Default OpenLoop tuning in Texas..

Have a combo that calls for more than a regular tune?? Have a cam so big, valves only close on weekends and holidays?? Then OpenLoop tuning is for you. It includes :

Full tuning of all parameters
Wideband tuning on the road, under load
Cruise and part throttle air/fuel set
A/F under WOT set

Its basicly the best tune you can get for your Ls1. We are offering it now for a special rate of $400, which includes updates. No dynoing is included, but before and after can be arranged! All tuning is done with a precision wideband, so a/f is dead on under all condtions. PM me for details or setup an appointment.

p.s Allow atleast one day for tuning, for complete cold and hot cycles

Man that is a great deal...especially with the way the Barametric pressure is always changing here in Texas, and screwing with our tunes. My car runs great in the mornings, but when it's time to go home from work in the evening and it's 100* outside with 100% humidity, it runs like dogshit. Open loop all the time,,,that's what I'm talking about. I'm about to try and venture into this myself, I just ordered HP Tuners yesterday, I sure hope I can get it nailed down as good as you guys.

Ive been doing some open loop stuff with big cams, and its not really all that bad. Get the Ltrim close but rich over anyplace reversion would be a concern, turn em off, and wideband from there!

Speed Density is where the fun is

Speaking of Speed Density, we also offer that service! I run a custom speed density program on our 2002 Camaro, which runs 5.9's in the 1/8 mile...yet idles and drives PERFECT!! Speed Density programs are alittle more involved, so price is on a case by case basis.

Do you guys ever return email or phone messages?

I've been wanting some pics of your C5 tranny/differential brace ever since I stopped in the store on the Hot Rod power Tour.

From visiting your shop while my buddy was getting tuned, I've got great confidence in your tuning abilities

I have had several customers gain 2-3mpg with openloop tuning. Should be the same with S/D...its just a matter of getting the air-fuel/timing perfect for each combo!
