Default Holden vs GM programs

what is the difference in a US LS1/LS6 computer vs a Holden model? Any reason to consider converting to a Holden setup?

I think they are the same. I know the programs are pretty much the same, other than some additional emmissions related differences in the tunes. I don't see any benefit to it.

Holdens have a MAF table that runs all the way out to
511g/sec at 12KHz while the F-bodies just flatline down
about 450 g/sec. You may not want to swap the computer
altogether, but there is a lot of interesting stuff you could
learn from looking through the tables, I bet.

I am pretty sure mine is better that the pro-tuner ones people pay for. And it can be downloaded for free from horist's website.

i have the maf less tune from a holden, its just like we do it. The holdens have the exact same operating systems as us, and they work just the same in our computers. the gts program is just a little different. ve is more spiky, and the maf goes to 512. we can do that on our cars with no ill effects, i always move the maf to 512.
