Besides AF and ignition timing, what else is there to tune? What other parameters are there to tune when tuning for power (not drivability)? I went to the dyno and had lower than expected results, but I don't know what else to tune.

As you can see, all the motor runs were very consistent. 3 runs all motor and 3 runs with N2O. I am alittle upset that I only got 369RWHP when I was expecting closer to 400-410RWHP. I knew my car wasn't running as strong as 400RWHP from my track times, but I figured it was just that it needed some dyno tuning. As you can see from the graph, the AF is pretty solid, 12.8-13.1. The timing is all 29-30.5 as measured from Autotap. I have everything worked out, I was ready to tune, but I didn't see any where that needed it. Maybe I could take away some fuel below 4k rpm, but I was more concerned with the peak power. The graph looks good, just about 30-40RWHP low.

Re: Besides AF and ignition timing, what else is there to tune? Anyone? Those with LS1 Edits, what parameters do you actually tune? From the data I've shown so far, how much benefit in tuning would you guess I would get?
Re: Besides AF and ignition timing, what else is there to tune? TTT I'm interested as-well. I and some friends have Edit and we are always experimenting with it. I would like to know if there are some basic guidlines to Performance Editing since the places doing the programing really don't change all that much.

I thought there would be a LOT more knowledgable members who post in this section. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Sad]" src="gr_sad.gif" />
