Default Best place for email tune?

Hi everyone,
I've installed some mods on a C5 Corvette,
Comp Cam 54-426-11 (7) with grind number XR275hr
Lifter kit
Timing Set
Push rods
Valve springs
90mm throttle body
LS6 Intake manifold and injectors
Long tube headers
Straight pipe with x x pipe
Varanam intake
and so and so


I want to rev it to 7000 rpm and modify the throttle response, because on the car you have to push at least 30% of the pedal to get any revs in the engine. I want to get something like the feel of the throttle cable and get it tuned properly

I have Hptuners, logs and map file

Thank you

East coast supercharging in New Jersey. They are a vender here. A Dyno tune would be best. I'm guessing there are not many corvette shops in Madrid. After mail order tune is installed, data log idle, cruise, part throttle acceleration and full throttle acceleration. Send the files back to ecs for fine tuning.

I recommend Corvettes of Westchester. Chuck Mosello has an OUTSTANDING mail order tune.

Like Marty recommended; The best way to get the tune proper with all the mods that you have, would be a DYNO TUNE.

Chuck can help you out there also!! Write him or call him and ask about EFI Live Auto Cal and this COW BOOSTER,Throttle enhancement tuning.

You will be very happy with his work!

General Inquires: inquires@corvettes-of-westchester.com

Engine Calibration / Technical: Chuck Mosello corvette-doctor@corvettes-of-westchester.com



He has a wide band capable AutoCal and with that tool, you will have an in the shop quality tune without removing the PCM from the car that you can fine tune the PCM for best performance and efficiency any time you need to just by E-Mailing the Data Logged Files back to Chuck for fine tuning adjustments. Then you just flash those recalibrated tuning files into your PCM.

Chuck also will do a Throttle Booster mod to your PCM.

Please have a look at our AutoCal package with serial wideband.

Using our remote tuning tool, can perfectly tune just about any vehicle from 1,000s of miles away.

I went with Patrick Guerra w/ an EFILive Autocal. In your case, since you already have HPTuners it sounds like, he can do email tune support for $300. I've been very happy so far... my car made 390hp/375tq with air intake and headers/x-pipe. IIRC I'm on tune revision 6 or 7 and he's always been quick to send me any updates or changes I've requested (same day or next day).

Yep. ECS will get her in the range before final dyno tune. That's what I did.

I wouldn't even bother with a email can tune. IF you are going to ($$$) pay for a tune get it dyno tuned and street tuned. Just my .02 cents.

Its an EFI Live Data Log and Flash module. You connect it to the OBD2 port, data log the the PCM, down load that data to your computer and send the data log file to the tuner where he uses the data to improve your tune.

He send the improved updated data back in an e-mail, you put it bak into the module and then flash it back into the PCM.

You do this procedure as many times as you need to.

YES Bill.... The ONLY way to fly!

The AutoCal is specially modified at Corvettes of Westchester to make use of SERIAL WIDEBAND data from

an Innovate or Tech Edge wideband. While most NA tunes or bolt on cars will tune great without it,

when you're remote tuning a CAMMED or SUPERCHARGED vehicle this is the ONLY way to fly....

Just ask Matt from South Florida.... AutoCal, wideband, Chuck CoW Mail Tune on his HEAD/CAMMED C6 ZO6.


GO, MATT GO!!!

The special TODAY only is $903. and while it's totally complete, the innovate wideband and the autocal serial wideband modification.

The Innovate LC2.

It works well with EFI LIVE and is both reliable and inexpensive.

Several wideband configs are possible with EFI LIVE, but I've had plenty of success with the Innovate LC1 & LC2.

Call any time.
