Default Well I now own HP Tuners and got a few ?'s

I purchased HPT Pro and I am swapping my 2000 Silverado with wimpy 4.3 to a 6.0 and 4l80e. What am I going to have to get this thing going. In another thread it was mention to do a complete rewrite with 02 os. Where do I get that and how do I go about doing it. Please bare with me I am new to this tuning stuff I'm just trying to not screw to much up but am very anxious to learn. Thanks in advance

Also I bought a complete intake off of a 99 for the fuel rails and TB, which injectors should I use? The 99 or the ones that came in the 06, are they different and will the 02 tune need to be modified for them?

Yeah its all there on the pages man.

What your gonna do is pop the stock 6.0L ECM in there. Your gonna read the ECM once its all powered up and than your gonna play. If you take the tune off the repository, its for reference purposes only. It likely wont work on the ECM from your truck....you can copy the tables into your ECM. But don't license that file...you'll waste 2 credits.

You will do trans first. Than your gonna have to do some logging runs and play with your tuning. Its an art really...but with a little practice and reading you will learn.

Read through the stickies...thats the best source of info over on HPT.

A lot of guys over on LS1 are good at this too. I am just learning myself, but I have no trouble helping you if I can.

Umm Hptuners forum is full of people willing to help. Yes if it is some basic stuff that's been covered over and over and over and their is literally hundreds of threads on the subject someone may be asking about then of course people are going to tell you to use the search button.

I cant pop the original 06 ecm in there because my truck is a 2000. I was also wondering about if that would be a waste of credits but, some suggest to do a complete rewrite with the 02 os12212156. There for I believe I would have to licence the file?
