Is there any one that has Turbo-Link? If so, are you happy with it? I am new to this whole scan tool thing. I would like to know how to used it? How will I know when the car is running rich or lean? And if I do know it is running rich/lean, do I drop the boost or up the fuel pressure? Basically, how do I tune my car? I have an LT1-MAF and the translator to go with it. So therefore I can control the MAF, the boost, and the fuel pressure. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!! Thanks, Jason
There is nothing to "know" to use turbo link. Install it on a computer and plug into the ALDL port and it will record all the useful parameters of the motor as you drive. The boost sensing option is great, too. It's records your boost as you drive for playback later.
What you do in response to what turbolink tells you really can't be answered with blanket statements. If your car has knock, I would tell you to lower the boost and/or add octane, while someone else may raise the fuel pressure.
Tuning works best when someone who is proven to be fast with a similar combo to your's helps you. Tuning doesn't work when you try to change too many things at once.
