GTM is using Uprev for their tuning software.

theDreamer 08-08-2010 11:35 AM

Tune between which two? GTM kit v. Stillen kit?

This whole thing started with a question about 500 RWHP which isnt hard to achieve with SC not 700 and I agree, if I was doing more than 550RWHP I would choose to go TT as well. Also the last posted TQ at 5.5 psi was better than any TT posts I have seen so this compressor makes really good torque, seems better than any of the TT kits at that psi

yea I would think they would similar and was wondering why one is good and theother isnt.

LateralG'z 08-08-2010 11:36 AM

GTM is not using some stupid special Uprev version like Stillen so they are not have the software issues.

theDreamer 08-08-2010 11:39 AM

Well there are many factors, Stillen is using a modified Uprev tune, different superchargers, different designs, etc.

Don't be a sad panda because you got called out on your post that you don't understand and can't explain

LateralG'z 08-08-2010 11:40 AM

Stillen made a poor decision to use some special software version:shakes head:

I guess thats why I was liking the GTM over Stillen cuz they used tried and true methods like a FMIC that I know works good compared to a new designed IC that IMO still has to prove itself. It looks good but I know a regular FMIC works great. If my bid for a GS LS3 vette falls thru in the near future then it will be the GTM kit for me.

There is no need to start a vendor comparison this thread was not opened for such comments. Take your comments and post it in the Comparision Thread were it belongs if it still Opened? Keep it on Topic!!
Thank You.

LateralG,

With forced induction, you are looking to elevate your wheel horsepower (obviously) by cramming air into your cylinders. Your wheel horsepower target is dependent upon a required air mass flow rate and the PSI needed to reach that flow rate. This is why people need to run certain boost pressures to make certain power levels. By adding headers, you improve the volumetric efficiency of your engine, in turn making your engine more efficient at inhaling and exhaling air and exhaust gasses respectively. If your engine is more efficient (see volumetric efficiency) in this regard , then the needed boost level to reach your horsepower goals is less since your engine can make more out of the given mass flow rate of air.

Your are making a lot of assumptions and spreading alot of missinformation all over the board. read and research before you post. We are all using the same Uprev software,the same tools just different tuners and level of experience .
