Default tuning individual injector flow?

can individual fuel injector flow be tuned with the factory pcm and tuning software such as HPT or ls1edit efi live...? or maybe an aftermarket system like BS3?

Do you suspect some of your injectors flow differently to others? Perhaps you need to get them flow tested?

I dont know if BS3 can do it, but certainly it can not be done on the stock PCM, you cant even adjust banks of 4, I know the banks are adjusted by fuel trims, but we cannot make one side rin richer that the other unless you fudge the O2 switching levels.

I seem to recall some motors, maybe it was the
V6es, having individual injector scale adders or
something. But I think this is something that
would be better fixed by plumbing and component
matching; even if you -could- tune to relieve an
injector or plumbing mismatch, those effects
would have to be variably compensated per flow
demand and so on. Ick.

no the reason i asked is because ive read about cylinder #7 going lean when under boost and using the stock style intake like ls6 or ls1 intakes. im trying to sort through setup ideas and was just curious. i know there is the carb style intakes but i want to keep my STB and i dont think the carb style setup will allow me to keep it.

Yep, the PCM's from some of the SC 3800 series have this option.

You tune for #7+#8 cylinders. Not hard to do.
