Stage 1 Custom Tuning

Has any tuners started tuning with the new map sensors from the Stage 1 kit???


Im very curious to what numbers we can be seeing with new map sensors and custom tune.

Stock map sensors +custom tune=or- bolt ons=295-330 HP

new map sensors +GM tune=290 HP

New map sensors +custom tune+or- Bolt ons=???????



If we get some numbers. those stage kits will start selling like hot cakes

Lots of torque up to 400wrtq at 26 psi. HP could be as high as 360 whp at 24 psi under ideal conditions. Turbo flows 36lbs/min SAE at 24 psi. I have 345 whp at 34.5 lbs/min airflow.

The tune didn't start as his own.

Yep, but this tune has absolutely nothing in common with that other guys tune and it runs a ton better on the street. I was seeing up to 10* or KR on the street with that other guys tune that is why I decided to tune it myself. It is faster now than it was last time you rode in it.

That's alright. Anyway. I would stage tune mine if I can get the parts for less than $600. Those sensors and the ability to tune for up to 29.5 psi without blowing map sensors is worth it. In another thread someone with Trifecta's tune at 24 psi blew his sensor. I guess Vince's trick to fool the ECM into thinking it seeing 20psi all the time does not really work.

It just so happened to happen right after he installed that tune. Yes, some have blown sensors even stock but he had no history of blown sensors until he installed that tune at 24psi. Sportredss has blow out a ton of maps with his BSR tune.

Unless I'm mistaken, the stage tune is a new OS. The BEST way to go about it is to get stage (1 parts + GMS1 tune) / HPT unlocking and updating program X Custom Tune = BIG numbers

It is a new OS but it can be read and changed using the latest HP Tuners Beta software.

It is under $600...and actually if you know someone at a dealership they may even be able to get it much cheaper. Unless you mean after the GM flash... go find some gm tech friends quickly

The HHRs see 20-22 psi IIRC.
