DISCLAIMER - I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CHANGES YOU MAKE TO YOUR CAR

Ok, let me go one thing at a time..

The rev-limiter
Engine>Fuel Control>Fuel Cut-off>RPM Limits
change the Fuel Cutoff RPM P/N vs. ECT to your desired rpm
change the Fuel Cutoff RPM vs Gear to your desired rpm
change the Fuel Cutoff RPM 1st Gear vs. Time to your desired rpm


Eliminating the rear O2 sensor
Engine Diagnostics>DTC's
for the following codes, uncheck the SES option and set the ERROR MODE to 3-No Error Reported

P0036
P0054
P0136-P0141
P0420

I believe thats it, all the ones you want to turn off are labeled HO2S..........sensor 2

For those without a cat, also turn off COT (set the values to 0)
Engine>Fuel Control>COT Lean Cruise>COT Adder Max
Engine>Fuel Control>COT Lean Cruise>COT Adder Min

Now, I use another couple tricks.

Limited boost in first
Engine>Torque Management>Supercharger>Max Boost 1st Gear

Labels 4000/4250/ 4500/4750/5000/5250/5500/5750/6000/6250/6500-8000 (at 100%)
Max Boost 40/45/55/60/65/75/80/85/90/95/100

Torque Management
Engine>Torque Management>General>Spark Retard vs Torque Reduction
set all values to ZERO
Transmission>Torque Management>Abuse Mode>Trans Abuse Mode Torque Reduction vs. RPM
set all values to ZERO
Transmission>Torque Management>Torque Reduction>Torque Reduction vs Torque vs Shift-Normal
set all values to ZERO
Transmission>Torque Management>Torque Reduction>Torque Reduction vs Torque vs Shift-Performance
set all values to ZERO

these are simply ways to accomplish a goal.

 

Thanks. I want to save this, lol.

 

also, for people with 2007's the torque management does not apply. the option for this is blank under the transmission section of hpt.


thanks doc!

 

good to know. Thanks doc.

 

Wish we had something like this for the 2.4's

Good job Doc.

 

How hard is it to tune for 60lb injectors via HPT? I want to buy it and learn it but i'm kinda scared and intimidated.

 

It isn't easy to accomplish on your own. There are companies/people that have pioneered this and most of the tuners use these as a baseline.

 

Like Doc said, the basics have been done by many already. Your best bet is to check with either Cameron or Steve if/when you get HPT. I think they both may have basic 60lb tunes for you to futz with.

 

Thanks guys.

 

For those people who are worried about their MPG i suggest reducing boost in 1st gear. I have mine set similar to Docs and i easily gained 2 MPG without planning on it. Changed it back too 100% across the board just to make sure it wasn't the weather and my MPG instantly starting dropping off.

What does zeroing out all the torque management stuff actually do for you? Quicker throttle responce?

<--still an hptuners noob guided by the wings of the one and only Denny

 

wow this program seems to be what i needed... is there anything it doesnt do. will it work on the wifes 2.2 and my 2.0 or just my car. wow ive got so many questions right now i dont know where to begin.

 

you can't tune the 2.2 with hptuners

bump cuz my question has yet to be answered

 

I second this, I would also like to know what exactly it does.

 

very nice job doc. what is available for the 2.4 from hptuners?

 

think of torque mangament as a form of light traction control.

 

nice post, but even with the disclaimer, I'll bet some noob says it's your fault his car blew up

 

There is alot for the 2.4 also. BUt I dont think anyone has made a right up for it. I am still playing with my tune.

 

do you think they will eventually make something work with the 2.2 i can wait if they are gonna do it, but if not then ill find something better

 

I think eventually you'll see something but it won't be for a long while. Good luck in finding something better

 

ive got friends that do alot of stand alone systems for all kinds of cars and are very very good at it. its not hard for them to find out what works on what and what doesnt so it wont be hard to get something to work.

check out the electromotive tec3 it would wok wonders on this car

How much torque does the stock ecu manage? Ok.. Say you eliminate TM on a stock car. How much torque would you pickup?

 

I would like to know this as well. Is it harder on the tranny to zero out all the torque management stuff? What other little changes can be done to the gm stage 2 tune to get a little more power out of it?

 

anyone know?

 

add this to the list if u like

adjust computer for 60lb injectors
engine>fuel control>general>flow rate vs. kpa

50.19823 50.73302 51.26297 51.87334 52.39167 52.90515 53.41282 53.99993 54.49694 54.99105 55.47934 56.04514 56.52471 57.00041 57.47223 58.01769 58.48176 58.94196 59.39828 59.92629 60.37486 60.82150 61.33692 61.77580 62.21177 62.64387 63.14476 63.49257 63.49257 63.49257 63.49257 63.49257 63.49257


Ive found this to work extremely well and the long term and short term are just as good if not better then stock

if you were all wondering also I found a spread sheet in another thread that produces these numbers

hey doc you forgot one..... I managed to throw this code while finding all the codes to throw that pertain to removing the cat and the 2nd o2 sensor
P2AO1

 

Thanks. I haven't run into that code yet, although I haven't had a lot pop up.
