A buddy of mine with HPtuners will upload the 2.4L tune for free but i just need the file. If any of you have a tune file that I can have so I can give to this guy that would be awesome. Im gonna put it on my flash drive and run it over to him and hes gonna just plug it in my OBDII and do it. Thanks

 

Your car doesn't work like a computer. Your not downloading a flash upgrade from the vender and flashing your motherboard... you need to tune your ECU to your engine, driving style, and environment...

In otherwords, you need a tuner, not a file.

 

so what is the difference between that and lets say vectors option to have a tune file sent to me for a smaller price than the ECM itself

 

need help? my 2.4 is fully tuned by me and 06blackg85ss

vectors is a canned tune..but needs tweakin and wud need to be logged so u can adjust with hptuners

 

any help would be awesome, i have a guy that has HPtuners but somehow I would like to get a "box" tune or some file or something that has a general 2.4 tune.

 

auto or 5spd?

 

5 speed, mods are in sig, CAI, CA v1 shorty header, megan catback

if u can get me ur stock tune i can help adjust some things to make the car run better...i dont have a 5spd tune..mine is auto.. wut year..i mite i have to look thru my files

 

2006, i dont even know if i can get you my stock tune lol, arent all 2.4L cobalts stock tuned the same?

 

yeah its better to get the stock tune but i mite have a 2.4 5spd 06 tune somewhere on my computer

 

even if someone sends you a file to base the tune off of do not just flash that tune to your car. use the compare feature and copy what differs even then every car will react different with a tune

 

hmmm

 

agreed...this is why you would want to send someone your stock tune and they can adjust the tables..this kid who wants to tune you..he know what he doing? if u can get that stock tune lets us know

 

If you want to get a basic tune start click my signature. That will walk you though the basic steps. I still use that as a starting point on every LE5 that I tune. It will get you in the right direction but you can taylor the tune to the specific car, this why. Also make sure you have a good config file to log the car with.

 

ill try to get the stock tune, i really dont want to try and tune it myself and possibly screw something up

 

hey ill see if you can get my tune from paul so bullet can look at it as well as me

 

im sure we all can help u out...but we wud need ur stock tune first

 

Even if we get his stock tune, unless you have the file unlocked you will not be able to save changes and send them to him. We can send value files and reveiw logs. But we can not save any info to his tune with out forking over the cash are selfs or having that model year unlocked. Yes we can help but having his stock tune makes no real differance to me since I can not alter it.

Kyle, like I have said on AIM I would like to see how Paul tuned your car.

 

so would i lol so i can see what he changed and look whats up

 

Yeah I know. But at least now you have the ability to reveiw tunes and see what is going on

 

yupyup

 

sooooo... what is your advice on what i should do next to get this done?

 

get me ur stock tune and ill help u out as best as i can

 

awesome, will do. ill have it tuesday
