    New User, I have the .hpt file and specs. Need help with Idle

    I am completely new to tuning and don't know where else to get help.

    Firstly, I apologize if I have not followed proper "tuning forum etiquette" by posting an annoying newbie question in this section.
    -
    I have just recently installed a new engine in my 02 Trans Am and I am looking to tune it up myself. I previously had it tuned for the old engine when I upgraded the heads and cam. I am still running on the old tune. I have posted this tune for whosoever is kind enough to look at it for me.

    Here are the new mods I am running with.
    -
    427 cubic inches, up from the OEM displacement
    Comp Cam LSR camshaft, part #54-471-11
    LS3 intake manifold
    LS3 aluminum cylinder heads
    11:1 compression
    92 mm throttle body
    42 lb 2010 LS3 injectors
    3:73 rear end gear ratio

    For now I am having trouble with the idle. it idles about 1200 rpm and when I put it in gear it dies. Also, can I get some quick tips on how to begin tuning this stuff? Thank you.

    First, you're in the wrong section. You need to be in the GM Gen3 section. You surely will find help there. But first begin by reading the stickys in that section.

    Can you answer me this? Am I posting enough information or should I put up a .cfg file as well?
