    Default Custom OS or stock e38?

    Custom OS or stock e38?

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    I have a 2006 Z06 with a e38 PCM. It's twin turbo making 7 PSI, it was tuned by the guy I bought it from. It still has a working MAF. I am have lowered the compression to 9.5 and upgraded all the internals. I want to run about 10-12 PSI. Should I work with the stock OS or should I go with a Custom OS in speed density mode with a 2 bar map. I didn't see a custom os that goes with an e38 PCM in the tutorial. Please point me in the right direction.

    Thanks

    EVI, there is no need for a custom OS on the E38 to run SD and 2bar, GM designed it as a 2bar system.
    You MUST read this tutorial as well -
    http://download.efilive.com/Tutorial...20Tutorial.pdf

    It covers SD tuning on the E38.

    Cheers,

    There's also no need for you to start 3 seperate threads on this either.

    Sorry, I didn't know what section to put it in.

    I found that tutorial and have been reading it thanks for the reply.
    1 quick question though, I still need a 2 bar MAP right?
