So here it goes guys I know you probly get tired of answering these dumb questions. But I just bought a 2013 SHO black on black and I love it but I need more power coming from a 600 HP CTS v. So I need in detail how to get mid 12.5 in the quarter. Like exactly what I need. I'm looking at livernoise tune to start. But if you guys can pass on good info on exactly what I need like links to the items that would be much appreciated. Thanks a bunch fellas. Oh an one more thing I see you can get like some parts cheap in deferent spots like 1aauto so if I could get a 3 bar map sensor from them and t stat to save money that would be awesome.

3-bar tune and DP should get you close if not there. I think there are tune only guys that have run mid 12s. Followed by meth

So when I get a tuner from livernoise it should have all the tunes I need on it. Or are there different tunes for each programer you get? (From livernoise)

The tuner comes unloaded. When you get it you use it to read the strategy code from your car and email them with info and what tune(s) you want.

I was under the impression the livernoise tunes where Canned tunes that came with a 91oct 93oct tune ECT. And you just load them in and your done.

They are canned in that way but the Livernois tuner itself will work on many different vehicles so they come unloaded. If you end up selling your SHO and buy another compatible car you do the same thing and they will send you new tunes.
Plus there are other variables besides what octane you want to run, stock MAP or 3 bar MAP, etc.

Go to ecoboostperformanceforum.com and PM AJPTurbo... his tunes plus a 3BAR map sensor will get you into the 12's quick...

LMS for sure will.. but you will need a few supporting mods...

The same formula translates to almost any car. Intake...exhaust...headers...tune...and if turbo...turbo support (eg: inards....3map...boostcontroller...waste gate..intercooler and piping..etc)
