Tune for vararam
Does anyone have a box tune I can use for my car. I have a vararam that I want to install, but the last time I had it on, it was causing some WOT shifting issues. I know I need to get the car dyno tuned, but unfortunately that's not in the budget right now. I have HPT(not pro) so if anyone has something I can use or a walk through for tuning for it, it would be much appreciated. Thanks.
Do you have the stock maf sensor, if not it may help to get a ls7 maf card and HSRK so you can put the iat sensor right after the filter in the housing... You will also need the aluminum 4" pipe w/maf adapter and some hose/clamps
I still have the stock maf
You don't use a HSRK with an LS7 MAF! If you have the stock MAF, get a HSRK and put it on the front snorkel of the Vararam.

Apparently stock MAF screen is slow to read susceptible to heat and the HSRK sensor improves that. When you ditch the screen for the card, it reads much faster and eliminates the need for relocating the sensor.
what screen? My MAF is stock but has no screen, I have a HSRK too. Did I take it out and not remember....

Thanks for that info. It won't hurt it though, right? I'll just keep it in if it doesn't affect it in any way

I didn't say the stock screen! I said the stock sensor! Rick told me to dump the HSRK if using the LS7 MAF.
I am in NO way an expert on these things. I go by what the experts say!
