So what is a Custom Tune? Well it is NOT a preloaded tune that will find on your SCT X4 programmer when it shows up at your doors step. Our Custom Tuning @ RDP Store is the closest you can get without having your car on a dyno. With our years of GM tuning experience we can tune your car remotely (via email) based on the modifications you have, the type of fuel you are running, the area you live, type of driving style you have and much more.

Stay tuned to this thread for an overview on what this very simple and extremely effective process this is. This is the single best modification you can do to you Corvette. It is the foundation of all your modifications to come. For now lets take a look at the very powerful SCT X4............

Hi SIr

When i do the tuning its done from 30 years of working on the dyno tuning stock cars to 3000hp pro drag radial cars, any time we do a tune for a customer its custom tuned to suit the vehicles modifications as well as the driving style that the customer wants, also all our tunes come with a Free Lifetime Tune Update Policy which means if you add more items to your vehicle or move to a different octane of fuel all you have to do is send me a email and let me know what your doing and i will update your tuning for you for free.

If you have any questions by all means feel free to give me a call sir on 440 358 5500

Thanks Steve

Steve!

How many C7 have you tuned so far? Any numbers and what header, intake and tune is running the best?

I had Steves remote tune on my 151LE with kooks and cai intake and ran really well and definitely pulled harder in every gear.

Thinking of going with the TSP Headers, Halltech or AFE and a remote tune..

i literally have nobody near me I would trust with a dyno tune....sucks

i could have it dynoed before and after headers etc.. though....

100's of them sir, in all forms of modification levels from basic bolts ons to supercharged built motor combinations, header wise we normally either go with kooks or arh as we have seen the best results from these and air intact wise mainly the halltech and we have used a few corsa units with good results as well and remote tuning these is simple sir

What would you charge if I already bought the SCT X4 handheld? I bought it last year to use as a data logging device. I just have a few simple bolt-ons but I think there is more to be had out of this car. Especially in the mid range. I'm not looking for a dyno number. I just want results at the drag strip. I have a C7Z with the A8.

Please advise. Thanks!

John

So one might ask once I get my SCT X4 is Dyno Steve's custom tune already on there? That is a very good question with a simple answer, No. Below are the first steps you need to take to get that amazing custom tune from Dyno Steve. Because this is a "Custom" tune taylored to your car, your driving style, where you live at. Dyno Steve needs your stock file out of your car and that is what will be modified.

How to Download your stock tune File

1. Once receiving your SCT X4 please plug it into your laptop and software will automatically load, once loaded please go through the hand controller and go to check for updates (this may take anywhere upto ½ hour to process)
2. Once updated take unit to your car and plug into the vehicles OBD2 port and turn ignition key on.
3. Then go into vehicle information on the SCT X4 and then select Upload Stock file
4. Once uploaded turn your turn off and then take the SCT X4 to your laptop.
5. Download from the SCT Website the Device Updater program and load this onto your laptop, this is the direct link to the download for the device updater
https://www.sctflash.com/support/kno...e-my-x4-device
6. Once installed connect your SCT X4 to your laptop and then open the device updater program
7. Once opened go to Get Stock File from Device and then save file to your desktop
8. Once file is saved to you desktop email this file to me at dynosteve@rdpmotorsport.com with a complete list of all modifications done to the vehicle and what octane fuel that you are running.

Hey Steve, sorry for the delay in getting back to you. Busy, busy.

Can you please tell me the difference between your tune and the "pre-loaded" tune that comes from SCT with the X4? I don't need specifics but what kind of things are they changing in their 'canned' tune versus what you will be doing? I have a Halltech CAI, Katech Ported TB and Borla X-pipe currently. Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks!

Ok. One more question. What are you doing with torque management? I've heard some guys blowing up their A8's once this has been deactivated? Please elaborate. Thanks!

Its adjusted in the tune ti suit the mods that you currently have fitted and i dont turn it off fully, but that being said i know of alot of people running 0 torque management and never had a issue with the A8 and honestly i havent even heard of anyone having this issue before (obviously unless it was tuned badly or driver abuse)
