What happens here

Head to Blueprint Engines for the dyno tune. Before tuning, ensure the vehicle is filled with E85 fuel. This fuel offers higher octane and cooler combustion, allowing for more aggressive tuning and increased horsepower compared to standard pump gas. Connect the HP Tuners device to the vehicle's OBD-II port. Jamie, the tuner, will use a laptop and HP Tuners software to adjust the engine's parameters for E85, including fuel maps, ignition timing, and boost settings, to maximize performance.

Goal: Tune the Suburban for E85 fuel to increase horsepower and optimize performance.

  • HP Tuners Device HP Tuners — Connecting to the vehicle's ECU for tuning
