I know that tuning is doubtful, but is it only doubtful on the 05s and 06s? I kno that the 07 uses a different cpu, so is tuning more likely for an 07?

 

not to be an ass but our cars dont use a CPU

 

U kno what i mean, ecm.

or whatever the hell its called, lol.

 

Last HPT said that it is feasible to conduct work on this E37 (I think that's the ECU designation, correct me if I am wrong). No ETA on release.

I can only hope.

 

HPTuners basically said no to us wiht tuning the ECM its self ,BUT we do have standalone piggyback units that will be able to hold us off untill someone does make a tuning software work with the CAN-BUS style ECU.

Megasquirt (not sure on our cars)
AEM F/IC (works well but limited on Timing ADV.)

i am forgetting some so every one chime in and get the ones i didnt.

 

there are some who are using the smt-6 i think. i know yellowshowbalt has run that on his if i remember right...

 

Cant i get tuned at a dyno shop?

 

yes, if you have STANDALONE, there is NO WAY to tune the 07 ECM its self because it uses CAN-BUS and no one has released the coding to do it.

 

hey guys/girls i knowsomeone who has software to program ecm's or the computer to tune it but i dont know if they have it for the cobalts yet i will ask and get back to you guys

 

i can 99% promise that ur answer will be no.

 

Why do they have to make these things so GOD DAMN complicated.

 

They don't want you ******* with it. That's why.

 

I went with the AEM FIC

 

Hows that working for you? and what FI set updo you have?

 

65lbs fuel injectors i haven't wired it in yet but the software itself is very easy to tune using i believe.

 

the layout and mapping of the software itself is not difficult to understand at all. And if you ever want to go back to stock you just simply unplug the unit and your ECM returns to stock.
