Default Got LS1Edit today.. Awesome product!!!!!!!!!

After waiting too long for someone else to finish up my program, and with my new cam, etc. being installed next week, I decided to take a chance and spend another $600 and buy LS1Edit. Best decision I've made yet. I was able to upload the current code from my PCM, which is a custom tuning by Steve Cole, loaded via powerloader. I can see all of the custom tuning done by Steve, and can now change and tweak at will! I am very pleased. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PRODUCT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

sounds great!

$600.00 is out of my price range.

I'd buy it if the price was a little lower. :cry

Hey neverenuf:

When was your pcm programmed by Cole? I was worried that my pcm might be locked by Cole, but maybe he does not do that. Just a quick flash would take care of it anyways, but am curious. :D
:cheers:

Check out the Carputing site, there's a decent description there. It's not "performance tuning," but it does allow you to finally do your own tuning. There's something of a learning curve but I think the real stumbling block will be in measuring the results of your changes. The tighter the change, measure, evaluate loop is, the more agressively you can use a tool like this. For most guys that don't have unlimited dyno access, your only measurement tools are going to be timeslips and the on-board sensors. (I say that like there's not a lot of data on board :rolleyes: )

Very cool stuff. :cheers:

BTW, there is now a PCM forum over at http://www.LS1Tech.com.

(I still want spellcheck back :smash: )

I agree completely with Topless Texan. We've been working with the LS1-Edit for about a month now, and while many changes are reasonably straight forward if you have good wideband o2 info, others are very tricky, and can make things much worse than they were. Ken and Dave's warning screen should be taken seriously if you go out on your own with this. Try and work a deal with a local speedshop with a high end dyno and wideband o2, plus autotap, or a scan tool to plan on taking yours or theirs autotaps, diagnosing the output, and making SMALL changes at a time and then driving the car to allow the computer to adjust to the changes. I can't stress enough how powerfull this software is and... how quickly you might also be buying a new PCM. Getting agressive to try and create an end all perfect program based on multiple factors, will almost certainly make you sorry.

It's a blast working with it, just take it very slow, and verify what the results were before making additional changes.
