Learning to Tune Need HELP

[f85gtron]

Assuming you haven't already, You'll need to install and setup the proper .adx file for your ecm in tuner pro.
Adx=tells tuner pro how to connect to ecm
Bin=software that runs ecm
Xdf=tells tuner pro how to interpret bin

Hope this helps. Its confusing at first, but one day it will make sense.

Thatnk you f85gtron, I have a bin and ADX but no XDF file. do you know where I could source an .xdf file for my car? Im going to start looking so I may have one found before you reply, I don't ant to seem like a total lazy person.

reccommend you use this definition for tunerpro: http://fbodytech.com/eex-tunerpro-definition/

and this datalogger: http://fbodytech.com/eehack-2/download-eehack/

i probably wouldn't bother with tunerpro for datalogging that lt1 unless data tracing is something that you need. my tool is built specifically for your lt1 and does waaay more

Thanks Steevo, I'm downloading it now

You are in the right place. I have been lurking on here for quite some time trying to learn how to do things to my tbi truck. The LT1s are a bit tricky, because they flash like a newer vehicle rather than swapping chips. Let us know how you do, I have an LT1 I want to swap into a truck someday. Learning Tunerpro well takes some time, try not to change too much at first until you're comfortable with the program, and always save the clean bin that's not changed from factory settings. You will need it at some point. Best of luck!

Russk1981 that's the plan, I need to be able to tune simple stuff first like removing the Egr, AIR, EVAP, tune my fans to come on sooner, and tune for the gear swap in my car. Then I can earn how to tune fuel etc when I do my cam swap
