    2k rpm whenever car moving

    Hey everybody
    New here and have a issue i hope yall can help with

    car
    2012 Camaro ZL1
    416 stroker joker ported heads and blower
    Manual Car


    Ive had this car for a few months and cant figure out in the tune how to lower idle when car is moving. Whenever coasting and/or car is moving the rpm will not drop below 2,000 rpms until i come to a complete stop. Double check and no vacuum leaks. Purchased hp tuners for car to try and figure this out. 3rd owner of car and second owner was a good friend who had the same problem but never looked into it. Any suggestions would be great. Ive been doing a lot of searches and can seem to find anything. Im new to hp tuners. My other car runs on ms3 pro.

    attached my tune and a log of driving around if that helps

    Try reducing your min airflow table in the RPM range it is happening. Either compare the table to a stock tune and see how much your off or take 20% out and try it.

    Thank You so much, I was able to find a stock tune for a 5th gen and copy a lot of the idle info over. I'm not sure exactly which change in the idle fixed it but the car runs the same but drops down in idle and coasts like a stock normal car now. I don't know why i didn't think about that. Just made this car a million times more enjoyable and streetable.

    thanks again

    Just for future a lot of things were jacked up in that idle section. Main ones were airflow max and throttle follower torque that would cause it to hang during coast like that.
