Hello all,

I picked up my first 5th Gen a few days ago a 2011 2SS Convertible from a dealership lot.

I have owned many Camaro's before but it has been almost 5 years since my last, so when the opportunity came about here I am once again.

I haven't had much seat time yet and still need to identify what mods it has. I can see the CAI and Moroso oil separator easily but nothing else jumps out.

Does anyone know how to tell if it has a Tune on it? I was thinking of picking up a SCT X4 but will read the forums to see what the best option is. This will be my daily driver so I would like to keep it with good manners most of the time and tune it to angry mode on some weekends.

Thanks,
Bill

Hi Bill!

Welcome to the family. Technically, there isn't a really way to tell if it was tuned or not. Unless you had someone go in and look at the computer data.

Do you have an auto or manual? If auto, if you can here the AFM (Active Fuel Management) turning on and off, it's a good indication if it's tuned or not.

Thanks for that Overflow,

Yes it's an Automatic I did notice it still has the 1st to 4th shift and yes AFM is in full effect when I flip cruise control on. This is not a bad thing at least I have a clean start. Stock exhaust still so looks like I have some work ahead of me.

CONGRATS on the ride, and Welcome to our happy little corner of the net, and to Camaro5/6. There is a BIG fridge on the back porch with anything you can think of in it...help yourself...of course only take what you can LEGALLY have. Make yourself at home on one of the big fluffy couches, kick your shoes off, put your feet up on one of the tables, yes we are allowed to do that, mom's, wives', husbands, girlfriends and boyfriends here don't care....and take it easy.
