    tuning 09 cobalt ss/tc with mods

    im tuning a customers ss/tc the mods it had is
    * AEM C.A.I
    * injen upper hard piping
    * hahn 3'' exhaust
    i tuned it a bit. but i think i can do it a lil better. I tuned the Lambda at .88
    the Timing at 15. and i changed the Intake Cam. this is my first time messing with a ss/tc and i was wondering if i can do more with the mods

    The fuel trims are horrendous.. #1 is get that inline. #2 is use a correct CFG file to log it

    so i have to make sure it stays away from the negitive right? ahd what is the CFG file?

    also when my timing advance goes to negitive that means i need to adjust the timing advance to where it never hits in negitive is that correct?

    Why dont you use the file in the repository as a guide? I wouldn't tune someone else's car as a guinea pig

    the stock parts tune would be a perfect place to start since it will be pretty conservative for mods

    There are CFG's posted in the Histo and CFG thread, sticky at the top of the section.

    Others are right tho, this is a different animal then any other fuel injected car, def do some research BEFORE touching the car. Especially since it isnt your car.
