Oh I am taking pictures...my laptop went Kaput.........
GMPP doesn't use this type of TPI system so that is a no go........Matt can fix it but it will just take time. He keep checking the vacuum, timing and fuel/air rations everytime he changes something to make sure it is within range so he doesn't grenade the motor.
Most tuners of LS, Honda etc...have a base line safe tune that they adjust based on each individual motor....Matt doesn't have any TPI tunes and especially for this motor. He is a moderator on alot of tuner forums and he has been asking if anyone has used this set up to no avail. That is why we called Street and Performance but their tunes are just base tunes that still have to be adjusted...
Street and Performance said they will adjust the tune....problem is they want the chip back each time so either I pay overnight charges and the wait time or just let Matt do it...I'll save the shipping back and forth.
It was quite funny..he has the idle smooth as glass and I had this funny look on my face...I guess I had a " I don't like this " look because it had zero lope...He just started laughing at me. He changed some parameters and took the lope out of it just to see what I would say....he knows how I like the lopey sound.....He thought that was funny.......Of course he changed it back to where it should be. He explained that he did that to show me how changes effect the way the motor ran.
The good thing about it is that he can tune, change things or whtaever you do and make it run optimally but it just takes a little time....
