HAHAHA my LTFT tuning writeup made it in there. Cool!... It looks basically like a lot of cutting and pasting from some of the best threads from around the net. Very good stuff, and thanks to whoever put all of this together. I've actually been working on something like this myself, but unfortunately my time is very limited. Glad to see that somebody was able to do it.

Someone needs to add a section about getting rid of no-load bucking. Except I don't think anyone knows how to do it except trial and error.

This is an excellent compilation for a beginner like me who's always been looking for a fundamental "step-by-step" approach. Only thing I didn't see offhand was much on tuning for different injectors (although I may have missed it- I haven't had time to read it thoroughly).

I think it would be cool if the owner of the document or some folks here could maintain it and add verified info as it becomes available - sort of a "living guide to tuning the LS1".

Oh, and thanks to whomever spent the time and/or contributed.

Just out of curiousity are these step by step instuctions based on LS1Edit or HP Tuners? I mean the directory and sub-directory paths such as VCM Editor > Edit > Transmission > Torque Management, or are they the same or similar?

HP Tuners, I've never messed with Edit so it may be similar. Not sure.

Thanks Man!!


I tuned my car myself last year and never did the torque managment, what a dumb ***.
I have a 6 speed and didn't realize it was active untill wait4me helped out.

Thanks wait4me!
