Post Tuning Results so far with EfiLive....

I love this freaking program! So far Ive found that my injectors (30lbs SVO) were scaled WAY off...Corrected that and also set my MAF table back to a stock one I found on horists site. This made a WORLD of difference. the car would peg the narrowband O2s at WOT before, and because of rear O2 code issues never even found close loop cruise! Now they hover around .900 WOT and kick *** smooth driving at part throttle.... After I did this I decided to bump up timing 5% across the board on the High octane table. Reflashed and this gave even better performance. Still not an ounce of knock so I mapped dyncyl airflow vs spark advance and added another 5% to the lower 2000 - 4000 rpm areas. Throttle response is even crisper now. What fun! Still no knock and the car flat out hauls ***** now! I havent even hooked up the LC1 yet! I made 432rwhp through the Ls6 intake and exhaust before I had efilive, Im almost ready to get her back on the dyno again. Just from leaning the car out and adding timing Im sure I gained at least 10rwhp... It actually feels like quite a bit more... Im at around 27.0 degrees of timing WOT from 2000 - 4000 and 25.0 from 4000 to my 6800 rpm limit. Satisfied customer here!

Not to mention I'll finally be able to pass inspection.

What tuner tool did you use before?
How does it compare to HP pro?
I am using Edit, Auto Tap and LM1 wide band and I am looking to upgrade to something more user friendly with the capability to remap VE tables easily.

Actually I have have never used any other tuning tool for the ls1/6. I have been using efilive for 4 days now ... The car had previously been programmed with edit years ago for a cam only setup. The tuner just tweaked the MAF table and IFR table to get the mixture right with the cam. The first feature I used was to compare a stock tune to mine using efilive's compare feature. It told me exactly what and where things were changed from stock.
