As someone who lives in Europe, what's the best way to get a tune?
I'm not familiar with tuning for this platform. I had a BMW M235i previously and I simply flashed a remap in 10 minutes by connecting my laptop to the obd port and the tuner did the rest remotely. How does it work for Camaros? I don't have any local tuners, or any tuners countries nearby. I plan on doin headers, pulley, intake, throttle body to my ZL1 and tune of course, I just don't know where to go from here.

The same would pretty much be the same with this platform. You should purchase hptuners and hit any rep tuner up to remote tune it for you. Rickifast does mines, but there are plenty of good tuners throughout the forum.

yep get a HP Tuners MPVI2 from a remote tuner and a AEM 30-0334 gauge. being supercharged you need a wideband o2 tune.

As a previous Mustang EcoBoost owner, I had a device (Accessport) which I used to datalog, export datalogs to my computer and emailed them to my tuner. Then he would send the updated tune back to me, I would transfer it to the Accesspot, which I would use to flash the tune to the car. This would happen 4-5 times until the final tune was flashed. Is it a similar process with the HP tuners device? I am really interested, but first I need to know what the real benefits would be. Last edited by MakCamaro; 06-14-2019 at 04:54 AM. |

it will void the drive train warranty. works the same but with being forced inducted you need to use a wide band o2.

It’s not forced induced. It’s naturally aspirated. Mine is the SS, not the ZL1.

o ya i was thinking you were the original poster with the ZL1 but you still should use a wideband o2 no matter what.
