no 4 cylinder applications?

Post by Gravedouger »

I might be picking up a 2001 z24 cavalier 4 cylinder and thought it could benefit from some tuning but didn't see it supported.....why?

sorry about you mom, but its still a 2001 model with a 4 cylinder. How many people are on the forums asking for a tuner for that type of vehicle?

plus all this bragging about being the #1 tuner company you would think they would support ALL vehicles

yeah, there's no 4 cyl. support...


you'd have to go with the HPTuners software suite to get support for that vehicle...

Bragging or no bragging, they're still a business.

Anybody with a 4 cylinder vehicle generally isn't concerned with getting power out of it or improving their already great gas mileage... I wouldn't waste my time supporting it either.

Dude, I'm sure there's some company that'll take your money, but gains would be minimal. Check in to a turbo and tune from a 4-banger company. Hey I had a 2000 Z24... it was a fun car and I sure miss the fill up intervals :lol: I used to kick that mo-fo sideways w/ the e-brake at 45 mph and hit 1st gear (auto... that over rides the trac control) and roast 'em. Surprised a lot of passengers.

Hey Lew, just wondering how much better that car would be on gas with LTFT's dialed in. Also the custom tunes for CAI, headers and adding timing for the 93 octane tune...I searched for stuff when I had mine too... there's unclaimed $$$ out there... but I get a cut :wink:

SO THEY CAN STEAL YOUR FREAKIN MONEY!

I'm sure that TB spacer on your burb really gave you an extra -3hp which is why you don't see anyone on here running them. The whole vortex theory is nothing but a farce to market a useless product to unsuspecting wanna be newbies like yourself.

BTW, sorry to hear about your mom. My condolences.
