thats funny i just closed the tab with that bottom link, i was wondering if those were any good

Im all for 3 bar if the resolution isnt going to be a big deal, if its going to come to better drive ablility with the 2 bar id stick with it but if not then may as well go 3 bar now and be done. Now i just gotta keep myself from turning the boost up haha

My truck runs like stock. No resolution issues at all. I was pleasantly surprised at how easy it was to setup up the base tune and how it fired right up. I know enough to be dangerous, but I am not a tuner by any means.

I will say that you need to make sure to get your injector setup correct other wise it will run like ****. Also make sure you don't have vats turned on or at least you have it set to the right value. it'll start for a second and then die, you'll waste an hour trying to check everything else, you'll set it right and it'll just fire right up lol.

When you get closer if you need any help, I might be able to point you in the right direction.

Not sure what each means. Yea ill be running 2013 gt500 injectors which im trying to find out all the correct info

on the hpt forums someone posted the stock gt500 map but i guess i have to convert everything so im still trying to figure all of that out. The GM tuning stuff is new to me. Im used to AEM, hondata, chrome, ecuflash from doing imports but my LSX knowledge is pretty much 0

lol, so was I when I started my truck. Import fo life yo.... or not, especially when you want to make some power without spending 20k.

For the Vats setting.... basically if it doesn't start toggle between them and one should fire it up.

I'm running deka 60's, so I my settings wouldn't be that helpful. Don't gt500's use deka 80's?

specs i can find show 55lbs@39.1 psi, all of the maps were posted up over there from a stock car, and i guess there is a conversion chart to convert it all to HPT. Hopefully i can figure all of that out

So HPTuners can make a custom OS from my stock computer and that will keep everything working like column shift and A/C? IF that's true, I might as well go 3 bar now, I didn't build a forged motor to baby it.

But if I'll lose some of that stuff, since I wont be boosting like crazy right away, 2 bar can do for now.
