Stage 2 and HPTuners

A friend of mine owns a dyno shop, and just recently purchased the tuning suite for the LNF after putting my car up on the rollers the other day.

My question is, will HPTuners be able to adjust tables in the GM Stage 2 tune? Currently the car is sitting at 280rwhp and 315rwtq, and Id really like to see 300's all the way around without any further physical modifications.

I plan on using his shop and software well into the future as I add more and more to the powerplant of this car.

Oh, and for any that are interested, the shop is located in the Treasure Coast region of Florida, less than 2 hours from Miami, Orlando, West Palm, and many other major population centers in the state. We're thinking of setting up a dyno day for all LNF-powered cars in the near future, if I can manage to raise enough interest. I'm not sure if I'm able to put the name of the dyno shop on the forum, so PM me if you're interested.

HPtuner can adjust some of the tables of gm stage 2 kit.

the problem with HPtuner software is it is very limited HPtuner engineers are still trying to crack the ecm....so their software can fully control the lnf engine

There is no such thing as a Stage II for the Solstice, that is for the supercharged Cobalt SS, the GMPP turbo upgrade can be adjusted some with HPT, some of the new HHR SS guys have seen over 300 from the kit after tuning with HPT.

1) To REALLY label what the GMPP package is, there are two plugs, two washers, two sensors, some other little bits, and an ECM reflash. There is NO turbo upgrade or modification.
2) Lyndon has NOT released a tune package for the GMPP reflash. There are a couple of guys (one with a manual and one with an automatic) that are testers for him as he does NOT have the spare time to strap down his GMPP tuned GXP to really wring its neck.
3) Without a tuning breakthrough using the stock turbo 300 whp is probably not going to happen on 93 (or lower) octane gas and no meth spray. I have his tune, a catless downpipe, and stock sensors, and saw 285 rwhp and 328 rwtq. Lyndon DID do a few tweaks of the GMPP tune a couple months ago right after he installed the GMPP stuff and IIRC he said he saw 290/340.

Additionally, I already am aware that no two dynos are identical, weather changes results, close cover before striking, only you can prevent forest fires, and all that stuff !!!!!!!!!!!!

May I ask what mods you already have? I plan on purchasing my car By August and want to start making a list now of mods. I too would like to push the 300's.

Its not much really.

So far, just a Dejon Intercooler and TB elbow, Fujita Intake and I/C Piping, Solo Hi-Flow Cat and 3" RCD exhaust sans muffler, and the GMPP tune. I'm getting a custom tune done probably this weekend, if I can spare taking a break at work.
