    tire svc message after predator tune

    predator Very little risk involved. The predator flash tuner is a tool that gives the c5 owner the ability to make adjustments to the computer that was not possible before without going to the dealer or a dyno tuner. It does make the car quicker and efficient. There are several c5 owners who...

    Can Tire Pressure Monitoring System be disabled?

    dic system I think this tire monitoring system is of little use. I have never had the need to know if I need 2 or 3 pounds of air in my tires. In all my driving years a quick visual can detect if you are low in air. Even how the car rides will tell you a tire is low. The system in the corvette...

    First Dyno/Tune 99 MN6 w/Bolt ons

    dyno tune excellent numbers considering you only have full exhaust(headers,xpipe and cat backs) plus new air filter. I did read that the single most improvement you can make on a c5 ls1 is the full exhaust. did you put hi flow cats on it or not? I'm in the process of the same modifications on...

    TPMS "issues"

    i hear you Jay I understand and at this point you must forge on but if there was a way to eliminate these sensors from the computer, in my case, I would. I am also very picky and would not be able to ignore error codes so I would figure out how to eliminate or fool the computer to think the...

    TPMS "issues"

    tire sensors Im sorry you are having such a problem. I wonder if there is a way of disableling these sensors. Who needs them anyway? I have had many cars but quite frankly I would rather not have them. I can check my own tires without being told its low or something. I think its just added...

    predator

    Mike, saw you thread about the street settings on you a/4. was you car stock? 12.9 qtr mile is great for a stock car. Can I safely make these settings in my a/4 and see some performance improvements? Its basically the shift points and timing changes that did it for you right? I am due to get it...

Are they worth it? my plans are only for a blackwing, a good catback system and the computer reprogram for 93octane. I have 2.73 gears. what shoud be quarter mile times...

    Got the Vette Dyno'd

    very nice. 311rwhp is not bad for just exhaust. should be 360+ at flywheel. That's good power for the street. I learned from past mistakes that there is such a thing as too much power. I had 1200hp in my blown Mustang and really, anything above 500hp is useless. Congrats!
