ive mostly done e38s and ls1s.. but lately i was asked to do a v6 camaro so i accepted the challenge. im having 2 problems 1 is that the tb takes its sweet time to open up and when it does it only goes up to 83percent. i dk if thats normal or not also its got some crazy tables ive never seen so my questions is what do i move and what do i not? ill load the tune stock with a stock log and a baseline tune with a log. but i know theres alot more left it in. my battery ran out so i only was able to make a first tune... theres knock like crazy and altho ive read about this my question is how to i get rid of it? is it false knock? last thing transmission wont let me make changes i get this :

This version of the EFILive Tuning Tool has not been
configured to display this PCM's operating system.
it has os24264142

i emailed efi live already but waiting on a reply anyone can help?

Throttle appears to have a mind of it's own on these, but, take note of the MAP reading, is it at 100kPa? If so then it won't open the throttle any more than is needed.
All those new V6's knock like mad, there is a discussion on within the E39 section about it, please search.
See HERE (http://forum.efilive.com/showthread.php?22327-Unsupported-2012-Camaro-V6-TCM) re the TCM tune.

DONT MODIFY the tq response tables, it makes them not go into pe or go into and back out of pe. The throttle will not open immediately on these either in first gear. I got you text Alex but Ive been swamped and forgot to get back to you. I built a tt v6 and had a helluva time getting it to work good, and it still wont open the throttle instantly in first gear.

This is incorrect. The Torque response tables can and should be modded if the vehicles torque output has been changed but there are % of torque and load values that must change at the same time. The throttle opening is still an issue we are working through but may be in the slave and not ECM

I have found this to be true Paul, I was green on the E39 when I posted this. I have spent ALOT of time with a twin turbo v6 sidi Camaro that has been eating my lunch. I believe I have it square except for the throttle opening issue. Can you explain more about the Issue?
