Default OBD Reader?
Hopefully I’m not reviving a dead horse but I’m new to the OBD purchase info. What would be the best bang for the buck OBD Reader that will also allow me to relearn the exhaust valves? And whatever else I should but don’t know.

TIA,
MJ

What do you mean by "relearn the exhaust valves?"

If you are speaking of the NPP exhaust system there is no “relearn”.

I was under the impression that there’s a procedure to sync/adjust the exhaust valves in the exhaust. In regards to opening and closing?

No such thing. They open at a certain RPM which cannot be adjusted. You can add a Mild2Wild switch if you want to manually open them sooner.

I noticed you usually post in the C8 section. Are you aware this is the C6 section? It looks like the relearn applies to the C8.
