How does inTune relate to driving modes in C7 Corvette?

Post by SilverC7 »

The C7 Corvette Stingray has multiple, selectable modes (Weather, Eco, Tour, Sport, Track) that affect things like traction and stability control and throttle sensitivity (tip-in). How do the standard tunes interact with those settings? For example, with the stock tune, Tour has less aggressive tip-in than Sport or Track, and Weather is still less aggressive. And Weather kicks in traction and stability control earlier than other settings, I believe.

Is the above still true after a tune? Do the built-in (91 or 93 octance) tunes affect all driving modes? If so, do they affect all the same way, such that each mode gets a little more aggressive, or does it affect different modes differently?

Similarly, were I to adjust the throttle booster setting, does that affect all driving modes? Does it increase each mode by the same amount, or percentage, or do all modes end up with the same amount of tip-in?

Thanks much.

the modes still behave the same way, the tune still adds power in all modes ;)

Throttle boost will take effect in all modes.

Thanks, but to be clear with throttle boost:

Is the increase in percentage terms, so that Weather is still slower tip-in than Track, or is it in absolute terms, so all modes end up with the same throttle action?

Thanks for the replies. I've ordered an inTune. While I'm waiting, can you answer one more question?

Do the canned 91 and 93 octane tunes already modify the gas pedal input, or does that only happen if I select Modify the tune, and then the Throttle Booster option?

Re the C7, I noticed the team added the 2015 Z06. Is there a tune yet for the 2016 Z06?

I noticed the 1t02 GM file is not posted in the 'Downloads' section. Is this the latest tune for the 2016 Z06?
Any plans to provide an updated tune for a Cold Air Intake similar to what is provided for the C7 Z51?
Thanks for a great product!
