Default 2011 gs tuning

So I have a stock gs auto and don't plan on any engine modifications, however I am interested in a mail order tune for transmission and engine. I know it won't gain anything as far as power but what things should I change for the engine and transmission? I know the throttle body/ gas pedal has a delay..i would like to changes things like that. Thanks

Sounds reasonable. Ask a good transmission tuner. Maybe subfloor@centurytrans from the 2008 at thread a few down in the thread list. Not sure if Phil@tampatuning does those but he does good tuning.

I can definitely get you hooked up with a correct version programmer and custom tune for your Vette with one of my package deals (includes the programmer, plus my custom tuning service at a discount)... I've done a thousand of those over the years...

With the custom tune, you'll gain even better/quicker throttle response & acceleration, stronger/harder pull, smoother & quicker power delivery throughout the rpm's, better tranny performance/shifting, etc...

I change a lot of things... a small sample of just some of the things are: disable engine torque management, adjust part-throttle fueling/timing, WOT fueling/timing, knock retard settings, throttle settings, tranny shifting settings (pressure/firmness, shift points, quickness), etc...

You can email me directly at: diablo DOT help AT gmail DOT com

-Thank you!
