TVS 2.4 Ion Build

So far I have:
Harrop Eaton TVS (HTV1320)-LSJ Supercharger
OTTP Throttle Body Spacer and Buick Rainier LS4) 3" Throttle Body With Meth Injection and DevilsOwn Kit
Pacesetter header
Header-back 3" exhaust Magnaflow Muffler
OTTP Ported cut and polished stock intake manifold
OTTP Dual Pass Endplate
OTTP T-304 Stainless Steel Intake Polished with filter
OTTP Heat Exchanger Kit
80lb Siemens injectors with OTTP harness
AEM UEGO Wideband

Picked up mounting brackets and bolts, stock h/e, hoses etc. Thinking E85 as the TVS on an LSJ needs more octane and with my higher compression timing is going to be an issue.

Just waiting for my car to get out of the body shop stupid women hit me. Then I have to find a Tuner or buy HPTPro and try to work at it myself.

SS/TC FE5 fronts and rears, and a little something from Canada Eh? Wheels I traded for some 16s I still have to paint them. 235/45/17 Falkens. Should be my winter wheels. Fronts should settle more 2finger gap, rear 1 and a half in rear but ***** is in the trunk.







Stupid driver!


SSBC Fronts and Rear Brakes are next on my list...


If anyone has a 2.4 Auto Tune I could use as a base line that would help a ton!

Can't Wait!

Not built and automatic.....

Anyone selling HPTuners? As I have been told by all the tuners friends etc that I can they don't feel comfortable tuning it, and I also realize it is better to have my own so I can datalog and fix issues.

I still would like a baseline tune automatic 2.4 to work from.... even manual just so I can get some starting parameters. I know someone being a former J owner that tuned and worked for Rouch but if he gets back to me I would stop like to have something to start off with.

Thats not too far, and even if he can do an initial tune so I can get the car running I am broke as hell so I'd rather not buy a whole unit if I dont have to.

I have a yellow solid engine mount if your interested? If you can have him PM me that would be awesome. As soon as my car gets out of the body shop I want to install and tune in a day. I'd pay him and if anyone else wanted to join I'd buy pizza and beer lol.

In due time, but the 2.4 is actually quite ready for boost according to GM Build Book numbers.

Still would love to have an HPTuners 2.4 tune, Auto would be great, once the car is out of the body shop install and tuning are killing me to get done, having all the parts and not being able to have my car or put them on...

I have DevilsOwn Meth Kit and nozzles for it and NAWWWZZZZ in the TB Spacer!
Cut open and ported with dual pass OTTP Manifold, 3" header back with Magnaflow muffler, picking up 1 maybe 2 Moroso Spiralflows


mmcgee are you running an HPTune? If you could get it to me that would help me with a baseline to go off of!

Picked up HPTunersPro today, realtime and datalogging FTW!!!

So I am installing this right now and would greatly appreciate anyone who can help me out by shooting me their HPTune I've seen threads about the different injectors and tables on RLF and any local MI guys I am in Waterford if anyone is available today or tomorrow to help out or who has tuned using HPTuners.

I need a intercooler pump and bracket so if any MI guys have either I'd like it ASAP.
