      it is extremely informative. I needed a writeup like that badly to help get me on the right track.

      Do you think the tranny stuff would be the same on fbodies? That was on a regal so I am not sure about the torque management tranny stuff he did. I is pretty similar if not the same for us fbody guys I would think

        yeah I been digging around and saved that one as a favorite...


        this might help you on torque management it for an ls1, I believe.


        DISABLE ALL TORQUE MANAGEMENT

        Your a hardcore racer now why do you need a computer to tell you how much power you can have.

        1: Open your editor, go to Edit>Transmission>Torque Management.
        2: Set Abuse Mode Enable False
        3: Set Abuse Mode RPM, Abuse Mode TPS and Abuse Mode Speed to 0
        4: click over on Abuse Mode Torque Reduction vs RPM. I am referring to An A4 camaro SS here so dunno about anyone else. Set all values in Normal to 0.
        5: You should now have NO TORQUE MANAGEMENT.

                  I emailed the writer to change it but no update as of yet...basically he says that putting in a positive # intot he time vs rpm adder will richen the mixture...the exact opposite is true.

                    I reset my fuel trims when I was tuning, do I have to turn learning off now or how does that work? Will it just learn the fuel trims and then take care of itself?
