tune by big name tuner shop, for your review

[backchannel]

Got another jewel. This is from a popular tuner.

I want sooooo bad to say who this is from. I've tuned several cars that this guy has tuned. They all look the same. Not only does he do what he does in the PCM, but all the CTS-Vs I'm tuning that he's tuned, he takes the SC bypass solenoid off and plugs the line!!

Attachment 35349

how is he not seizing the rotors?

Got a tune from a Individual who's been tuning for 25+ years for a 2006 C6 with a maggie at 9lbs of boost. Done a comparision to a stock 2006 vette and the MAF sensor wasn't even touched

Had a C6 Z06 with a Procharger recently, same thing. Stock MAF table. WTF?

[edcmat-l1]

Creech?

No, but same school..........

how is he not seizing the rotors?

I don't know. I was thinking the same thing. It has to drive the heat up like crazy.

I won't say names, but before I knew anything about tuning I would recommend him, don't do that anymore though. The guy is semi retired, sold his shop and just does Mail orders out of his house if thats a hint

Question. Tuning Technique. PE. Who uses MAP, who uses Throttle to primarily control it?

I find the stock MAP works best if you have full throttle response. Enabling PE at like 70kpa or higher i find leaves it open for knock at quick throttle jabs.

[DSteck]

On boosted setups, I switch to MAP... Especially with turbos, since the same throttle position can be wildly different MAP values.

Wow some of these are nucking futz. It's amazing what a piss poor job people will pass off for good money! I'd be ashamed.

[IDRIVEAG8GT]

Hey is that numb-nut Chuck Cow still trying to keep in the tuning game? I made him look like a fool on the G8 board, and then he proceeded to call me out on the size of my toolbox in one of my signature photos. I was highly amused.

[DSteck]

He's got a huge following on Corvette Forum.

"Some" Vette owners, they'll buy anything from anyone who speaks bullshit fluently.

[realcanuk]

And some won't...

I will say that Chuck originally tuned my car and it ran flawlessly.

Yeah probably because he didn't change the MAF, VE or spark tables. I've seen that in some of his tunes. Hey at least it won't destroy the motor. Just the wallet...

I'll disagree. We installed a supercharger and all of the above was tuned and changed. Everyone is entitled to their opinion so I'll end this here.

I am sure with every tuner and shop, there are happy customers and some that are not. Its part of the game.

Dyno or street tune?

Dyno or street tune?

You probably already know the answer to that.

[realcanuk]

I was at the shop for 4 days while the work was done. In total I would say we spent 4 hours of street tuning and about 3 on the dyno. He definitly spent the time to make me happy. I know ! He doesnt have a dyno ! We drove mine and another vette to the shop of his friend and spent till 2am on that dyno.

[realcanuk]

By the way, I am not pushing for any one to like or go to Chuck. I have no interest in doing that. I was just stating that for me, it all went well.

[mowton]

That is good....

[LSxpwrdZ]

I'll have to get into my shitty tune folder I keep mad upload some stuff. It's amazing some of the stuff I see come in.

[MikeOD]

...this car is sitting in front of my house waiting for me to re-tune it this week. Heads/Cam/headers/exhaust and a Magnacharger on an LS6 CTS-V.
