  • Narrowband tune...

    yes I know ideally a wide band tune is the best way to go...

    But wondering what I could get away with in adding timeing, any tips on fueling?

    obviously will run a higher octane... Any thoughts/advice will be appreciated...

        That seems pretty lean to me. I'd stay around at least 900 until you get a wideband.

Stay on the rich side until you get a wideband, then lean it out to where it should be for best power.

              viper & 98Camaro.. how long have you guys been tuning cars? and what kind of backround do you have in tuning? just out of curosity.

              oh yeah do you think tuning my car will get my 1/4 mile mph above 90?? I consistently run 89 mph

                          I have a laptop & a jumpdrive that will be in my car so it should be no problem [img]smile.gif[/img]

                          I have one quick question.. you know how people buy 160, 170 & 180 thermos? Can I adjust my car to keep my motor at 160-180 degrees with my stock thermo using the tuner?

                            You can program the fans to come on at a lower temp, but the thermostat is mechanical.

                            If the fans are changed to come on at 195 and your thermo doesn't open until 195 then your fans are going to run almost constantly.

                            I have a 180 thermo in mine (160 is too cold for these PA winters) and my fans are programmed to come on around 200 now.

                              nope the thermo is opened by water temp, just get a 180 or 160 there only like 11 bucks i think
