Yep! Plug it in and connect it up to Livelink and log the MAP. I don't remember if it lets you apply a custom formula to just any signal. You may not need to convert anything... it may be obvious by looking at the graph that something is messed up.

Download livelink from the sct website using your serial number on the handheld. Then install it, plug into your car and a laptop with a usb cable, and click datalog my vehicle. I think it'll make sense once you get there.

Exactly. I would think he would want to at least see the results of his tune? We went back and forth a couple times with mine. You might follow the directions on this thread...

http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=276696

... and send him your log. He may or may not tweak things and send you a better version of the tune.

Simple question: Is the installation for the Magnaflow Street Series axle-back exhaust system (#16581) fairly easy on a 2013 1SS/L99 Coupe? And... do they add some "beef" to the exhaust note without adding drone or being obnoxiously loud? Thanks.

I can't speak to the exhaust note, but if you're using band clamps, the install would be easy and rewarding. If you're welding, make sure the tips are right where you want them before you tack them in place.

+1

Install everything loosely, then tighten when you get it where you want it. Would be advantageous to put block of wood or something on top of the tunnel brace to push the pipes up as far as you can. That way, when you tighten it all up the pipes will sag a little but should stay above the brace. The brace area is a problem spot for hitting on many catback installs.
