    2011 ctsv tuning help!!

    Hey guys so I?m totally new to the hp tuners world but I got a 2011 ctsv that I?m doing a stage 4 cam with springs headers a 10? lower pully and I already did a 2.4? upper. I upgraded the fuel pump to a dual 300 lph and 1500cc injectors. I?m gonna port the blower and add a 102mm throttle body. Does anyone have any advice on what I should do for the tune? I just got a mpvi 3 with 2 credits and have saved I think 2 log files so far.

    Two things. First, if you are new to tuning you have a lot of reading and watching to do. Second, being new to tuning and with the amount of Mods you are doing I don't recommend you try to tune it yourself. Too many variables to get right.

    I suggest looking for a remote tuner on here. There are several really good one on here.

    Watch Cringer (SilverSurfer77) and Goat Rope Garage videos on Youtube

    I suggest the following for remote tuning:

    With that pulley combo you'll blow it up. Fact.

    Blow it up how? To much boost for the motor or overdriving the blower to much?

    With that pulley combination, you will be at a 4.17 ratio and spinning the blower well above a safe range for the blower.
