One of these came with the car I bought, but the dealership returned the car to stock. I plugged it in and read the last tune written, sure enough it was the original back up.

I'm thinking about uploading the performance tune. I'm guessing this is the canned tune that came with the unit way back then. I noticed the unit said that it's best used with aftermarket exhaust systems. I assume this is because it can shut off the O2 sensors?

Is this safe to try or should I just wait and get this thing dyno tuned after I put on the exhaust?

is the car all stock?

I have 1..been running the performance tune for 13yrs..
it was dynoed for fun..

it gave 30lb torque/30 rwhp more.

I had gotten mine just for scanning codes..but have used it for other things..

Note..if it has been updated,you can not change rear of setting..

If it isn't worth using I'll just get it tuned loally, maybe add a wideband and go with HP...

Just figured, this is free and was installed on the car before...I'm not looking to go beyond the canned tune in power adders anyhow...why not?

from what I was told..

30hp/30tq with just a push of a button is an awesome gain..
Definitely, and that would be enough for me honestly.

It's meant to be my cruiser, not my race car...

So you have no mods whatsoever? Wondering if I can just flash it before doing the exhaust or if I should wait...
