We have not forgotten about you guys, in fact it is funny you just now posted as we are tuning a turbo'd Saturn Ion redline on the dyno right now....
Just a little R&D action, but we're on it.

Thanks

thanks mike. tuning a redline is pretty cool, however i hate to be the guy that says "but but but" but...... the redline's already got tuning... :( it's the e16a guys that have been hung out to dry thus far, and whom are itching to take full advantage of the extra .2L and 10:1 CR on our motors! :)

thanks for your update, please keep them coming - we're definitely rootin' for y'all! :)

Mike, any updates? I would really like to know how this is going. Even though that should be a 2.4 up there :twisted:

We made 300/310 with a mocked up turbo kit on the car at 20psi....they are actually getting a T-60 for the car now, and we will retune it in the future, looking for ~375rwhp....

Good shit. You were running 20 PSI threw the stock block? How were your IAT's, how much knock retard were you seeing, how much timing did you add or retard?

I couldn't stick around for the end of the dyno session, as it was getting late, so I'm not sure on the specifics of the tune.

KR was not an issue, as we were not leaning on it too hard.

Apparently there are people running even more boost than that on the stock blocks and they seem to hold up....just keep detonation at bay!
IATs were acceptable, as the car has a huge air to air IC up front.

Thanks
Mike

Well Im throwing my question into the ring. No longer have the vette or gto. I have a 06 balt SS/SC stage2. Any news is to a tuner being produced for this 2.0L
I know HP tuners has software for it, but since I have had your tuner for the last 4 cars I would like to stick with it. It is a lot easier to use compaired to the HP software.

HP's software is not to bad to use, but yeah it would be nice to have a tune made by a pro.
