    Tuning G8 GT

    I have a 2008 G8 GT. 6.0L A6
    I am tuning it for my little lunati cam and I am needing to know what all tables will need tuned to get the most out of the cam. I tried looking around but could not find anything that I could use or understand. Have it idling decent enough it doesn't stall or anything unless you stress the engine. I can live with it until I correct fueling. But I have the VE tuned and I am onto tuning the MAF. But I have no clue how to tune the MAF... I can't find anything I can follow along with to know how to do it. So can anyone point me in the right direction or help me out?

    I know it's been a year for your replies, what I ended up doing was paying to get a tune. I gave up on tuning until recently. I've been reading and reading more and more.

    No one local does anything like this so I can't do hands on learning which is way easier for me.

    The only issue with my tune right now is the RPM fluctuating when I come to a quick stop. The timing jumps around a lot and does this for a couple seconds and then the idle levels out. I just have no clue what table to modify

    Meant to update this. It was actually in the transmission tune under torque management. Changed the enabled temp for the Limit TqMgt to 493. Fixed the issue immediately
