    LOL! ok here is the thing...i personally will use EFI Live over HP Tuners for many reasons but the main reason is the no BS rule! If anyone can get tuning for these ecm's it is going to be EFILive i am sure of that...but all in all i use EFILive in our shop for all the GM High end cars!

    Also i know that there is allot...and i mean allot of 2.2L guys looking for tuning as there is Turbo kits SC Kits (I personally designed a kit for the 2.2L cars using a procharger) and nitrous junkies!

    Actually allot more cars then EFIlive would imagine....

    But if i had the resources and if you guys could do the basic stuff...
    Governer table
    Timing table
    fuel table...etc then i am sure these guys will be happy i turn away more business because there is no tuning for the 2.2L guys

    anyways thanks for listening!

    I dont think its a matter of the efilive guys not wanting to dip into the area, its more the fact they have there plates full with the development of the v2 hardware and associated V8 software release.

    *yawn* keeping this at the forefront in case the EFI guys get a wild hair and want to help some 2.2Ls go nuts.

    Any chance this is in the works? Alot of people are migrating to 4 cylinders these days. I just picked up an 07 G5 for a DD.

    Well guys, I would assume on the various boards you tried to rally up as many people to vote in the poll to sway the vote?......for a grand total of 17 Yes's. Add a zero it we might consider it

    You can't really expect a company such as EFILive, HPT, JET, TunerCat or whoever to invest what could be between 1 to 3 months development time to add support for something like the E16a for what appears to me to be a very small market 'compared' to other potential untapped or on going markets.
    Yes 4 cylinder interest is growing, those with later models can rejoice that GM switched over to the E67 ECM for them.

    dvx, I am pretty sure the 2007 G5 does not use one of these E16a ECM's anyway.

    Cheers,
    Ross
    I no longer monitor the forum, please either post your question or create a support ticket.

    "only" 17 ppl voted here because the majority have already been to 3 or 4 OTHER places trying to get support. Diablo and HPT yielded 50+ votes. and those are just the people that participate in internet forums.

    what is your process for analyzing the "potential" of other untapped markets? have a look at how many Ion and Cobalt 2.2 owners are trying to turbo / supercharge their rides and i think you'll see you'd have quite the niche. Let alone companies like SpeedMafia and Alpine Developments which have procharger and turbo kits (respectively) but no really good way to tune 'cept for the SMT6 piggy. team up w/ them and you could have a huge market right there.

    as far as whether or not the '07 G5 uses the e16, pretty easy to tell just by looking at it. Does the ECM under the hood (right in front of the driver's side) have Three big black connectors on it, or just one? one = e16a.
