Corvette C6 Manual Transmission ...Throttle Booster Feature?

Post by TheMachine »

Just purchased an Intune and installed the 91 Octane canned tune. I was really looking forward to the throttle booster feature, but under the parameters that can be changed, it doesnt show up... I found somewhere online where people with other makes/models and manual transmission were complaining about the same issue...is this correct? Whats the deal? I have a 2006 Corvette C6.

throttle booster is for dcx applications, but throttle response is still improved in the tunes for the C6 models...

What is dcx applications? Why isnt this stated anywhere in advertisement? I feel misled. I assumed all the bullet points listed as features were for all vehicles. No where did I see anything saying "some features may not work on some vehicles".... I feel thats false advertisement to be honest :x

dcx is the chrysler applications, where did you see it that it made it look like it was available for GM?

Can you tell me where you saw that posted, and maybe provide a link? I'll make sure that it gets corrected.

Corvette Forum for example, vendors there have this in the bullet points,

http://forums.corvetteforum.com/c6-part ... ntune.html

Also this place

http://www.westcoastcorvette.com/p-4333 ... c5-c6.aspx

etc....and many other places... they all have that list of features, and I have not seen any mentioning about certain features not working for GM vehicles

First off it does not say you can modify the ETC parameters, it say throttle body booster and what does that mean. If you are not 100% aware or experienced in the ETC tables then you need to leave them alone. Remember the Toyoata that would accelerate on their own. GM has very complicated tables for this and it is not just one tables. There are also tables that are outside of the actual calibration that have to match and nobody except a very small few have the ability to modify those tables.

get your info directly from diablo's intune product page man...

http://diablosport.com/index.php?module ... ay&pid=201

vendors make their listings to show all available features and don't differentiate between what vehicles have what tunes available, etc etc... and when that basic/general info was on our own intune page, we had a footnote indicating that not all tunes are available on all vehicles, that they are vehicle specific....

just like a supermarket flyer, "not reponsible for others typographical errors"...
