Default Using LS-1 Edit, elevation matter?

If I had my car tuned at 2300' and use the car at sea level,
will the tuning be good at both elevations?

I was thinking of having my car tuned in Las Vegas, elevation
approximately 2300' and using the car in LA, at sea level. Would
my car need to be retuned at sea level?

Thanks in advance.

The LTrims will relearn themselves, but WOT settings will be off ( running lean ) at sea level with the extra O2 in the air.

:iagree: I had mine tuned at sea level, and it was rich here at 5,500 ft. I leaned out the power enrichment by 2% and gained 13 HP. :cheers:
