Alright, So, I'm Fairly new to HPTuners, I've been reading the forums off and on since I got my CTS-V ('06 LS2), More since I've got my Pro Interface.
I've been looking and I can't seem to find a thread where the Basic Methodology is stated clearly. Yes everyone comments on the newer guys posts giving advice (which i love, thanks BTW for that) but there's no real step by step examples. I'm sure some of this is due to tuner preferences, what some do now others do later, etc.
I know enough about engines/tuning to know that you want to start with mild Spark advance, tune in your VE/fueling, and then work out the advance from there with knock sensors/det cans, Then tweak the fueling and timing till it's all fairly safe throughout. and finally do your idle control and warmup/overtemp enrichments.
So, in HPT Jargon (not Megasquirt etc) What would you all say is the NORMAL, BASIC tuning structure to go by?
thanks in advance for any feedback you've got for me.
