Re: cts v tuned

I thought StealthV was done tuning V's for awhile? I thought he bought something else and moved onto that.

Will do. Jesse told me stock setup should get the LS6 somewhere in the 18-22hp range. Not sure if that was to the wheels or not but for $160 and $10 for an update tune I'm in for a try.

bacdoc, Did the W4M tune deliver as promised? Is there a noticeable difference from the stock tune?

Re: cts v tuned

I just installed my W4M tune about a week ago after my header install. I hate to make butt dyno claims, but it does seem to maybe pull a little harder. Not for sure on that though. However the car does run smoother now though and the burble on decel is pretty much gone. Also, no more skip shift. Fuel economy with the headers/tune is better as well. I'm happy with the money spent.

There's probably an easy 15hp difference between a good canned tune and a good dyno tune.
On a car with only a few mods like exhaust & intake, there's not much sense in paying the extra $$$ for a dyno tune. Costs twice as much, takes longer, can't be done through mail exchange, and might gain you a few extra hp.

On heads/cam/blower cars, yes a dyno tune is pretty much essential to avoid leaving hp on the table and making the car work well with all the mods across the rpm range.
