Tuning can be complicated. There's a lot to learn, and it takes a LOT of time to learn it. Pay someone if your don't want to spend the time tinkering and want the thing to run right.

Just want to give a shout out to GHuggins for a job well done. Never before have I had anyone, be as thorough as he has been, tuning my car. He really took the time to go through and get the VE, MAF...
It's unfortunate because it turns into group think with its members. Any discussion outside of their beliefs is immediatley attacked. Makes it hard to get them to think outside of that. Thus causing...
Camaro5 forum is choke full of backyard habbyists, backyard mechanics and supposed dealership mechanics who think they know everything. Giving technical advise to people there is like talking to a...
Sounds like he wants burnt exhaust valves. Someone should kindly help him with his tune, so he can do that.
I've found, with a manual transmission messing with this setting makes it harder to feather the clutch when taking off from a stop. I didnt like it at all. It can be too responsive, at least IMO. I...
Use a different browser.
I woudlnt do it. Newer firmware may not be compatible with older versions of the software. You potentially could lose access to things, HpTuners removed.
145075 This is a stock file from a 2014 Camaro manual trans, non DoD, non VVT plain Jane LS3
This is typically normal behavior for modern vehicles. It does this because there is a massive load put on the electrical system during cranking. The modules shut off during this momentary start...
lol thats ok, I only felt like an idiot for a minute haha :doh:
Oh no, dont get me wrong here. I dont agree with doing anything half-assed. I'm a rookie at tuning so I didnt know. If the right way, is to turn them off, then thats how it should be done. I was just...
Interesting... I only disabled the DoD in the editor. I did not disable any codes, haven't had an issue. Is there an underlying issue caused by not disabling the DoD fault codes? Its passed all its...
I own a 2006 Envoy Denali as well. I went through the engine, rebuilt it with new pistons etc. You're right, the stock timing tables neutered the damn thing. I wound up blending in the timing tables...
So the reason I noticed it, was because I was using BlueCats trans tool, and after I input variables into the tool, things like rev per mile were not the same as the stock calibration. When I input...
For context:
2006 GMC Envoy Denali 5.3L 4WD (4l60e) OPT GU6 = 3.42 rear gear
Would anyone know why my stock config file shows a 30.93 tire size and a 4.10 ratio in the gear and tire wizard?...
Circuit low faults are generally caused by excessive resistance in that circuit. Potentially a bad sensor, a pinched wire in the harness, or spread pins in the connector from probing. Also,...
Yeah because an update never changes anything right? If your so sure what's causing your issue, why are you asking for help? Pretty contradictory, especially when you say you're just not...
Are you running any anti virus programs? Those could potentially block you from running it.
Just guessing here, but adding 20% to BRAF seems excessive. If that's what you did, I'd probably lower that some. Might be why the rpm is hanging. Just a guess though.
If there were a fault code, it would throw a CEL, and the remote start wouldn't work at all, until the CEL was cleared. Not sure if he was asking a question or just making a statement about his...
that sux..
License is not tied to any PC or hard drive. It's tied to a vin and the specific HpTuners programming device.
Ahh ok, I didn't realize this was a common thing. Probably why OEMs recommend using a battery maintainer, not a charger, or trickle charger for programming. Them things are spendy though.
If the write calibration timed out, try a new USB cable, and attempt a write calibration again. If it is indeed bricked, it won't work and you'll have to take the steps to unbrick it as TheMechanic...
