    First v6 supercharger car

    I'm having a heck of a time figuring out a good set of channels and configurations to run tuning this car. I have a 2006 pontiac grand prix gt that I have put long tube headers and 3 inch exhaust cold air intake ngk tr6xi plugs. And before I go to change the pulley or any other mods I wanna try and nail down this tune as much as possible before doing more. Will have a wide band installed and running through a pro feature set

    There isn't much to log on those cars.

    Your basic channels list is kinda all you need. RPM, Speed, Injector pulse width avg, Knock retard, Cylinder airmass, MAP, MAF, o2 sensor, Commanded AFR or Lambda (eq ratio), Spark Timing, IAT sensor, Coolant Temp.

    I'm sure you could add more stuff depending on what you need to see.
    2016 Silverado CCSB 5.3/6L80e, not as slow but still heavy.

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

    Here are my channels, these are for a 2005 with an L67. Might get you in the right direction. You can discard the EQ error - 1 charts you won't need them.

    Point to remember is that fueling is dependent on the W body 3800SC vehicles by the MAF sensor readings. The fueling tables are only used as a backup

    I've always wanted to try tuning my car, but I never had the resources or the courage to get it done finally. But I documented myself on it for a long time, so I can help you out a bit. Authorized tuners or tuning workshops belonging to the carmaker are probably the safest choices and the most expensive. So that's why doing it in a private arrangement is perhaps the best choice. The easiest way to boost horsepower is chip tuning. You can switch from a fuel-economy mode to a fuel-consuming mode by increasing the engine power. Also, you'll need to ask a specialist about the car keys, since I'm pretty sure you'll need to get them replaced.
