Holden VE 3.6L - Stage 1+ Crackle Map - Stage 2 Transmission Tune

I have to say we were pretty surprised by this one......Check out the video with some headphones on!
We started by cracking into the ECU and TCM with HP Tuner and went from there. Adjustments were made to the fueling, cam timing, ignition timing, torque limits and transmission. The most drastic changes being the ignition timing and the transmission.
The ignition timing map was extended to redline as well as the cam timing drastically improving the power band. After this a huge amount of time was spent on the transmission. This particular vehicle had transmission slipping issues after increasing the engine power output and the shifting was slow and lagging. We increased the clamping force, line pressure, decreased the shift timing, increased the torque converter pressure and speed and adjusted the shifting maps to accommodate the extra power. After adjustment the automatic felt and drove like a manual in tiptronic. The customer should also see better fuel economy.
The end results were drastic.... who knows why Holden didn't make these changes. The car had power to redline, the torque limits were removed, shifting was drastically improved and the overall drivability improvement made the car feel 10 years newer.

I hear you fellas down under have grown quite fond of the GM LS v8 engines as well? through the Holden line. Will we see a tuned v8 Holden next?

[@purescarzx7848]

How did you get it to have a limiter? Is that just part of the tune?

Hey mate are remote tunes available ?

[@pendulumtuning7885]

Hey mate, I could send you some files using HP tuners but you would need to purchase the dongle and license your vehicle. This would be pretty expensive $$ The other thing is I wont be able to do a crackle map with hp tuners, as some timing maps are missing. I used other tuning software for this.

@@pendulumtuning7885 hey thanks for the reply mate, I'm really keen on learning to tune, are you talkkng bout the mpv12? I have an llt 3.6l 6 speed manual ve series 2 if you have a tune to suit I'm more than interested

[@pendulumtuning7885]

@@Drfast-bp6ug If you're keen on learning to tune, HP Tuners (mpvi2) is the way to get started on your car. If you can get your file to me I can modify it and send it back. We'll do some data logs of 3rd and I'll send you some files.

@@pendulumtuning7885 sounds awesome , what software is needed for crackle tuning? Also how many tokens is needed for my car cheers

@@Drfast-bp6ug I used ECM titanium, winols would work if you can find a damos. 2 credits www.hptuners.com/vehicles/
