 And of corse the DmaxAvalanche is got to be played with :4:

At least you have someone who can help you learn, albiet from long distance.

It's a steep learning curve; I feel like I can tweak a few basic parameters but I'm always amazed with how much knowledge some individual tuners have of the software and how to tweak many different parameters. I would love to take the tuning class to really learn the ropes or to have someone local who could spend several hours with me to actually show me (demonstrate) the ropes. I typically learn better by observing and doing than by trying to read and apply.

Yep, I have one but never learned how to use it. Seems complicated.

Alaska, I'm sure you will be able to do pretty well with it.  You don't seem to get very intimidated by projects that a lot of the rest of us wouldn't want to touch.  It really isn't that bad, you just can't be afraid of it.  I'll try to help if you have any questions.

well I got it.  Got the pass-lock shut off on the damn impala. Runs and drives now, just has idiot lights flashing.......

gave myself headaches 2 nights in a row going over scans, seeing what I'm in for. Uploaded all my GM but Diane's AV

Have fun. Just take your time, do a lot of reading, and make small incremental changes. It takes longer to get where you're going that way but you're way less likely to get yourself in trouble.

I brought the truck to work today; it's the first time I've driven it since I made a few tweaks to the timing table about a month ago. I get a big, sh!t eating grin every time I get in it! It's 20* this morning and this thing runs like a scalded pig. I may actually go more than half throttle tonight on the way home from work just to make sure it still works with the throttle that far down.

Kill the passlock system.

Yes
