    New to HPtuners v6/e67/OS turbo questions

    Hi i'm new to hptuners. done a few tunes on megasquirt/tunerstudio. ive been reading watching videos and exploring vcm editor. I have some questions regarding turbocharging my 07 uplander 3.9 v6 flexfuel e67 ecm. my research has led to me to the conclusion that SD tuning is the way to go and to ditch the MAF. That being said the majority of hptuners information I have found pertains to the v8/ls engines not a v6.

    1. Do I have to upgrade to a "2 bar OS"
    2. Is SD tune the way to go?
    3. How do I tune the "main" fuel/Spark table in vcm editor
    4. consideration if choosing to use maf sensor in turbo application.

    Thanks. -James

    Do you have the file you would be using?

    Ideally a 2 bar OS would be used, can make things easier.

    Are you just using this computer or are you really turbo charging an uplander?

    If you don't post your tune and logs when you have questions you aren't helping yourself.

    I am not sure how to convert to a 2 bar OS I am able to modify map linear to 200kpa if that works in stock OS. Yes I am actually turbocharging a chevy uplander going for a sleeper vibe

    Post your file here.

    A turbo uplander sounds cool, hopefully the transmission holds up.

    VERY FEW E67 files have a 2 bar custom operating system available, most would require use of the VVE calculator.
