[Monty]

Hi, i am a very nice person, i love to help people, will do most anything to help someone as long as it falls under the law of God, i like to smile and wave at people, most of all the people who seems to be having a bad day, i want them to feel better, really like making people smile . i really don't know much of anything other than God and His Word, and to drive i can drive alright, been driving since age 4 mom and dad owned a used car sales, i try my best to know everything i can, but hardly ever know anything, besides God's Word, but i already said that didn't i I Love God so much now for some reason hardly anyone likes me, some people seem to get mad at me, not sure why, it makes me sad that they get mad at me but i still .. most the time people tell me "just leave me alone" or "get away from me" or something mean like that... but its ok, i still so, did i say im not so smart, but i really like to try to learn all i can ? well some people call me a know it all, im not sure why, as im always asking people questions about things i don't understand, and that makes them mad too, not sure why about that either, but seems it would make them happy to help someone, but guess not... my name is Monty and i have lots of questions and need help S'agapo HUGS ev1 P.S i think why some people get mad at me is because i talk about God to them.. but its ok He still gave His only begotten Son, so that they MAY live.. its up to the person to take that step toward the Son, our, LORD Jesus Christ for there is only one way to the Father and that is through the Son seek and ye shall find, knock and the door will be opened unto you

Hey guys,

I'm Kyle, very new to the tuning world. i have a 07 cobalt ss/sc that i've done alot of work on. Used trifecta for my tuning but i want to do it myself and heard alot of good things about HP so i figured i'd join the forum. When i say new i mean i don't know what you guys are talking about when you say credits and stuff. That is like speaking japanese to me.

[Billdog350]

Hi everyone, been tuning vehicles for over 10 years including burning eproms for my old TBI 350 silverado, 1994 Camaro Z28, 1997 Corvette, 2007 Corvette, and 2003 Silverado...plus many more.

Been using EFI Live for years but with my latest purchase of a 2012 Chevy Cruze 1.4T, I'm looking to switch over since buying the EFI cable will be cost prohibitive.

If anyone knows where I can get some stock or modded ECO tunes for my car, I'd love to have ability to upload an econ tune and perf tune depending on my mood (though admittedly I'd have the econ tune in most of the time).

I was gonna ask if anyone has had any good results with the HP Tuner with this particular car and a 2006 Grand Prix GXP. Please Let Me Know. I am interested in this tuner and possibly may get one. I am looking to start a tune shop. Anyone have any advice? Thanks.

Hey, Name is Bryan. Finally picked up a forced induction car. Already has HP tuners, Figured i would join the forum to try to learn some of this better. Not gonna lie its kind of intimidating.

[BoneyBenny]

Hello everyone! I'm a total newbie to computer tuning, but have been a hot-rodder for decades.

I'm an old fart who has hot rodded everything prior to computer controlled cars, and looking forward to learning how to nudge some extra ponies out of newer cars.

Lucky me, I have an older POS beater for my learning process. I might be intimidated changing parameters on a nice car, but not on ye olde rusty bucket.

Anyone else in the Cleveland area?
