    Just tune it the way it is or goto repository and get a stock SC file and compare and copy over the differences to get a head start.

    No, no, no, no.


    A stock jbody is alpha-n, gm ld9 reflash is speed density. Copy over will not work.

    What year is your car?

    You can have the GM reflash loaded on your car by 1 of 2 ways.

    1. Have a GM dealer load it on your car (since you do not have the GM charger you could have a hard time with this), if you have a GM contact you could likely get this done for under $100.

    2. Get a copy of the GM reflash and flash it to your car with HPT. This requires your car as it is now to have credits, and the GM reflash file to have credits. So 4 credits.

    This will give you the best option for tuning (without going standalone). You can tune your car on the factory OS, but the GM reflash is much better.

    Yes then you flash the GM reflash to your car. You will then need to set that file up for your car. injectors etc.. Also that reflash is setup to work with a 2 bar map sensor. Stock we have a one bar map sensor. If you do not have the 2 bar map the car is not going to run right. So get a 2 bar map sensor also.

    Ok thank you.. Isn't there a way to fake the 2 bar?

    The 2 bar fake is for when you running ALpha-N, and truly your only faking your self in doing that.

    Get a 2 bar map sensor, you will thank yourself later for it.
