    LS7 throttle pedal sensitivity

    I have a 2009 Z06, its very modified. One of my issues is just touching the pedal gives you 3000 rpm. I would like to make the pedal less sensitive.
    I cant find a setting to do that.

    here is a log i did just idling with a few revs
    and my program.

    Can anyone help me with this?
    thank you
    Steve

    He posted it.
    2016 Silverado CCSB 5.3/6L80e, not as slow but still heavy.

    If you don't post your tune and logs when you have questions you aren't helping yourself.

    You can increase your tb size, have the missing baro torque tables added and then adjust them for your more actual airflow and adjust your rate limits back more to stock. You can even change your idle spark advance and upper rows of your main spark tables to slow the rev. I suggest just increasing tb size up to something like 7900 or 8100 and then lowering your braf table some. It's all up to you. I'm also not sure why you have it idling at 1100. You should be able to idle it down to 850 or so with some tweaking...

    Hi Greg,
    I appreciate your reply, however I'm new at this, and I really have not learned that stuff yet. (baro torque table, tb)
    I have a GM stage 3 cam, I think that's why the guy set the idle so high.

    another strange thing the car was doing is when I would roll up to a stop light, trans in neutral but still rolling, it would idle up to 2500ish rpm until the car stopped. do you see anything in the tune that would cause that?

    thank you
    Steve

    Sorry lads, I really need to hijack this one just quickly. GHuggins, what is the general direction we need to take when adjusting these tables? Screen shot attached for example... Is it as simple as modifying the tables at the appropriate baro reading to match up the logged cylinder air?

    I'll go ahead and tell ya, if you lower it on your boosted setup be ready to make some white knuckle race maneuvers and stay away from wet roads cause even light throttle can be interesting - especially that much I've always just increased them based on added airflow and make the changes in the same areas on all of the tables. Going lower in the tables is like going lower on the TB scaler and vice versa for reference If it's indeed as simple as plugging in the new cylinder airmass's for that given throttle, that would be nice and simple to log and correct, but would still require correcting for scaling...

    Three things causing you issues : 1- Tip-in limiting ( ETC limit 1st, 2nd,3rd and 4th ) change to stock setting
    2-ETC Area Scalar back to stock setting ( if your throttle body is stock )
    3-Base Running Airflow
    I would 1st start with the Tip-in first and see if this solve the issues

    I'll give it a shot, thank you.
    I also watched this video

    and i adjusted the timing like he did.
