Some tuning changes coming

[Slowhawk]

Looks like as of now I got 1 day every 2 weeks for open new tunes. The other week will be for retunes and tunes for parts bought through us.

This year I'm pushing the shop more towards building cars than outside tunes. We are already booking out 2 months for work and it's not even busy time of the year yet.

WOW!!! Its crazy because I still float around on the classifieds on ls1tech and a lot more cars have your name on them crazy. Good to stay busy.

It is nice but crazy. Our market is shifting to newer corvette's and 5th gen's. Then a few CTSV builds too. I guess the economy is getting better.

Well that's good to hear. sounds like we're gonna see some cool new era cars at dyno day. It would be good if there was someone else in the area that tuned the other LS's and especially LT1's... I thought about focusing on learning LT1 tuning a lot and offering to tune some cars but I just don't have the time now. Oh well.

PS the hacked 5.3 swaps, my buddy picked up a well abused LS car with a quick 5.3 swap done to it. Looks like the previous dude blew the ls1 and just stuck a 5.3 block in there and slapped it together, no retune...

I have been noticing that too. I think the price on 2010-2012 SS have come down alot since the 2014 models have come out. My friend down here has the first 2011 Vert in Florida. Has some nice mods and very low mileage. They only want to give him 26k for it. He wants a new C7. Good luck again. Glad to see the shop thriving and doing well.

Now get that T/A done for the spring! I want to see 4.80s out of that thing!!!

I want a 1LE 5th gen. Bolt ons and slowhawk tuned, done.

There are some shops around that can do some tuning. Really wish they spent the time to learn it better so I'd feel confident sending people there way.

For LT1's. There is money in that tuning. We get at least 1 call a week for it. I can't recommend anyone for them because we know of no one.

For the dyno day. There will definitely be a lot more 5th gens here along with Vette's.

Sad to say but our focus is mostly 5th gens now. 4th gen is a dying breed. We still do a bit of them but since the prices are getting lower, not too many people want to build the cars right due to budget.

So since tuning changes . Can I have some info on my tune.

I need to know injector size you have for my tune .( you had installed injectors I have no info on them )
2 is my pcm locked if so have it unLocked
3 is my tune with cam able to run other than speed density mode.
That way if i need to have a tune other than your's i have info need to get it retuned.

Why would you ask that here?
The simple answer would be the other tuner would read it and make changed as needed.
It's SD because it has issue's. Pretty sure the issue's were around the smoking issue which was fixed. Car should of been retuned after that but never seen it.
So the car probably needs a full retune.
I never lock them but IF the other tuner can't read it with there stuff I will gladly burn it back to a stock comp. so they can..

I I just found out you have no time to tune let alone lt1

Second you never even ask for it to come back even after last spring Dyno day. When I said it rich at Idel.
You neve told me any info on injectors other than red top ls1. No flow rating .
no I not even talk to another tuner . I am just keeping duck in row since your focus is on 5 th gens and newer now





But if you upset about it
