Default how do i pull timing with ls1 edit?

What file do i pull the timing from in ls1 edit for nitrous use? I have the software but had some one else help tune the car I'm not sure wheer to pull it at? Would I change the high and low octane table? or somewhere else? Sorry if it's a easy or dumb question I'm trying to learn.

Change the high octane table.

Look in the LS1Edit documentation that came with your software.

You will not find any useful hints on timing, fuel or tuning information. Then complain to Carputing that the written materials that came with your expensive software are useless.

I have done this with no results yet. Carputing's response to my inquiry from 3 years ago was that their product is designed to modify your PCM and, therefor, it is not designed to "tune" your engine!

WTF????

If lots of people complain to Carputing about their lack of proper software documentation/instructions we may get better help...

Good luck.

I think it safe to say that the lack of proper software documentation from software developers has resulted in numerous PCM failures and damaged engines and transmissions.

Lets all ban together and demand better products!

when there are better products on the market, there is no reason to use ls1edit. Their GUI sucks da anus and their documentation is even worse. I suggest EFIlive's product... very good documentation.

I plan on switching to hptuners but they don't have the ls2 version out yet.
