I just did my throttle body EFI 467 on the engine dyno, and the amount of tuning we accomplished was priceless. Even for the "self tune" EFI systems.
I second this if such a system is being used. I'm not an advocate of the "self learning" nomenclature that these systems are touting. They can only learn to provide fueling and spark based on what you tell it to do.

Having the engine run and tuned on an engine dyno will be a lot easier to figure out what the engine likes and thus get the system where it needs to be instead of guessing, road testing, changing, road testing until you've got it where it wants to be.

About Us

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
