Default Help with overall tune!

Well I've finally zeroed out all the differences between my '03 Silvy onto this avalanche, now I'd like to get an idea about what I could to improve the tune and also get as safe as safe could be...

Can someone with a 3rd Gen V8 plz take a look at my bin and let me what you think. Cheers!

You won't be able to get any closer to an optimal tune without scanning/logging some data. We need to know how the vehicle is running now in order to change anything... BTW, what are you trying to make better, performance? Fuel Economy? Thottle response??? We need to see some data logs to help with any one of those...

Drop the PE Enable>Enable Torque down to 1%, as it is a qualifier to enter PEmode.

Bring down the PE Enable TPS % to something more like 80 80 80 80 80 80 60 50 40 30 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 to allow you to enter PE sooner helping with power and staving off any KR that might try and jump up.

TM could be reduced considerably and it still be "safe". Reducing TM can make the Butt-O-Meter smile a little.

Well my friend has an '02 Avalanche, 6" pro comp with 35" tires and newly installed 4.56 gears.. so he wants some more umph off the line and also something that won't damage any transmission internals... the amount of rotating mass is just crazy! I'll get a data log of his ride loaded up soon once I install the tune and go for a cruise...

but overall what do u guys think? (I will be honest and say this is almost an indentical copy of a superchips tune, but with a few changes here and there to what I preferred.) With regard to the PE kick in, I will set it to the above mentioned and take a few logs. Problem is where I'm at is that the temps are just meeeaaan!! it's always hot/dusty/humid :/ not the very best environment to run too much timing

More performance and throttle response, but without removing too much TM
