    2014 Caprice PPV tune Newbie be gentle

    Allow me to preface this by saying I've never tuned before. This is my first attempt and I wanted to bounce it off of you guys before I upload it and break something. I have a magnaflo cat back and a k&n intake. I'm trying to understand how to do this before I put on my heads, cam, headers, ect. Feel free to make any changes or pm, I'm totally new to this so I'm open to any and all knowledge

    What did you change with the injector flow rate?

    You are never suppose to touch that table if you didn't change injector size, return that to stock.

    The PE EQ ratio is stupid rich, return that to stock. Take your time and read/understand the table before you make changes.

    Just do the math. 14.68/1.440 = 10.1 AFR. That is way too much fuel. You need to be commanding around 1.200 for a 12.2 AFR for starters.


    There is tons of other stuff you can do but I can't sit here and type a full page report on things to change. You'll figure a lot of it through readings. Those vehicles respond well to transmission tuning and torque converter settings.
    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.
