    I got it to DL, but not quite sure what to do with it... Does it just go in the EFILive calibration folder, or in the tune it's self?? And will it only work on the Camaros and Vettes, or should it work on the trucks too?


    Cax extentions for EFILive tuning software to allow you to activate lean cruise on US based camaros/corvettes.

    Just dump these files into your calibrations folder in the lsb folder. Look for the new tables to show up and then do a full flash of the file after making the change, then all tables will be used.

    Be warned. THESE ARE FOR TESTING ONLY. Do not damage my air.
    EDIT: It won't let me attach it's cuz it a TORRET file and I have not converted it... I can email it.

    I think all you have there is the TORRENT start script , used to start the TORRENT file download , the file is 23.3kb in size , that file is 375b .
    Still when I try to download it stalls or says "stalled" and just sits there , tried 2 different Torrent programs .

    Can you post it here ?
    It sucks , the EPA would force a gas saving setting to be restricted , especially now when gas is so high in cost .

    Default How to use it

    There is a readme file inside the zip, it says.
    Extract this zip in to :\Program Files\EFILive\V7.5\Calibrations
    When you next load a tune file you will see a option at the bottom of the engine segment, look for parameter B9000.

    I never found B9000 but there is a new entry at the bottom of the engine segment, exactly as stated, called 'bad things inside'. This contains an option enable/disable lean cruise. It also states that all the maps and parameters also need to be set up as per the Holden calibrations and then you you do a full flash. Then if it works.
    All the Holden info is available at Holdencrazy.
    Good luck, Steve
    Just got off the showroom floor, now lets fix it.

    That seems to work as it shows up in the stock tunes I looked in, but it's not in the CO's like I am running, Will have to find some thing to try it on.
