After you did my Tahoe it really woke it up big time thanks day and night difference in

[@RAWRMotorsports]

Hell yeah good simple to the point video no BS

[@devonadams4980]

Love the video I have a hp tuner on the way, I just did a stage 2 btr cam and the truck idles fine with a small chop, it just really lacks power on the low rpms when you get on it from a stop so I'll try what you were staying about the etc and see if that helps!!

[@boxoftj1]

Oh, shit. First video I found that explains exactly what problems I'm trying to fix. I like driving my '02 Tahoe more than my wife's '16 Tahoe because of that etc limit. Hate that groggy acceleration off a stop.

[@leoperalta7541]

I just came across your video. It's very helpful and useful. What would recommend for a base tune for a 03 GMC DENALI Awd??

[@jdmtake1]

Love your videos bro very explainable to understand I’m trying to put this truck I have back to stock because the fuel monitor won’t set so I think it has a tune on there so I just want to put back to stock

[@MaxTune]

Did you check HPtuners repository?

[@jdmtake1]

Max themadtuner yea no luck

[@guillermosoriano6487]

Thanks

[@snooka2484]

Any chance you can upload a Gen 5 tuning video?

[@williamrichard1892]

As an up and coming tuner.... Thank you!!! The information was invaluable.

[@robholley6112]

Super helpful. I’m going to use your tune for my Tahoe and my dad’s Silverado. I’d be interested in shift pressure change if it’s safe for the trans. Awesome info thanks!

[@maxthemadtuner]

If it’s maintenance has been regular, up tbe pressures 10% down low up to 20 up top,

[@MrGrzmnky]

I'm doing a dod and vvt delete on 2010 tahoe. What are the things that I need to pay attention to when loading up a tune for it. Any tips? I want Trans to be firm and shift kinda sporty but don't wanna hurt anything. Thanks!

[@michaelashby868]

I did an ls swap on a 2011 silverado 1500 crew cab about 9 months ago. What do you recommend for rev limit? LS2 with 6l80 transmission, also I've also been thinking about swapping the driveshaft. Your thoughts? Lastly do you have a means of bench tuning E38 ecms? I would like to have mine tweaked.

[@casocasos10BL]

I’m getting ready to buy a hp tuner for my 5.3 swap everything is factory accept for headers on the motor, I’m new to this and don’t want to frustrate you with questions.. motor came from 04 Tahoe drive by cable.. do you have a tune file that may work for me.. I’m not doing any mods other mods as of now.. not running cats and using 36lb factory injectors.. any info is great thanks

Good informative video. I have a 01’ Silverado Z71. Has a rebuilt stock motor and rebuilt 4l60e with a shift kit etc. I have been thinking about getting HP tuners . Want to try and tune as I do tow a Travel trailer and need a bit more power . I’ve never tuned these types of trucks. What would you recommend. Thank you for any help

[@MaxTune]

A tune will help with the torque. If you still need help, call during the work week for options to get tuned.

I bought a 2018 GMC 1500 Sierra Denali with the 6.2 ... someone had already put about 6 to 8 inches lift ... I get allot of issues with the traction control abs and suspension stuff and also would like to get rid of the active fuel management and run the straight 8 all the time.

[@alexdbnsaa]

Hi Max I live in South Africa and have a 2001 Silverado 4.8 that i have dropped into my Nissan Hardbody , i have an HP Tuner Ver3 that i just purchased. Would you be able to help me please, at the moment my original 2.8L diesel engine had more power on the hills. It just seems as if something is out either spark timing or fuel trims or something. Could i use the settings you show here for that motor and gearbox . Thanks for a great video

[@MaxTune]

Thanks for watching the video. Hopefully you figured out your issue by now. If not check on FB HPtuners pages or the official Hptuner forum. I’m a gas tuner and not a diesel, the above mentioned places have a wealth of info and knowledgeable people who tune diesels.
