How does it actually work? We modify the calibration ourselves?

Yes, you read the calibration from your PCM, then are able to edit various things. When you're done you write the changes back again. The VCM Suite software also includes scanning capability that allows you to read engine parameters and DTC's to assist the tuning process.

Tuning LSJ finally is hear. Will you guys be coming up with some base line settings for some of the pulley sizes, intakes, exhausts and injectors? I am new to tuning so I will need some help. Do you suggest getting a wide band O2 sensor or any other sensors to help in the tuning?

I went through you site briefly and did not see anything specific to the LSJ. Will you be updating that when you release it.

Anyway I would like to thank you guys for cumming up with this new tuning software. From what I saw on the Web it looks grate.

Lmao, I remember reading that ages ago, was like a 20 page PDF.

Anywho back on subject, I would also like to know if you guys offer any type of pre-configured settings for people that are new to tuning, depending on pulley size, iinjectors and what not. I have no idea how to use something like this :/

Also, IIRC the software is in beta 2 for the LSJ? About what time would a public release be? Also for about what price?

We don't offer tunes as part of our software, we leave that up to the users, tunershops and mailorder tuners that use our software.

I would highly recommend getting a wideband O2 sensor for tuning along with our MPVI Pro interface that lets you log the wideband data right alongside the vehicles OBD2 data. For boosted applications it is especially important to know you are not running lean.

Our forum has a 4/5/6 cyl tuning section at the moment, if we see demand for a seperate forum for the 4cyl's or specifically LSJ's then we can do that.

It's great to have you guys aboard, I think I speak for all of us when I say we greatly appreciate all your time and contribution to the Cobalt community.

While I myself am pretty cluless when it comes to tuning (although I'm slowly, slowly learning lol), I really hope tuner shops will take advantage of the software and start making custom mail order tunes available.
