Post EFI mods question..
Thinking about doing the Level 2 build to my motor this summer, question is can the level 3 be added later on without having to re tune the EFI or does the EFI need to be tuned again once the cam is added?

When you change the cam its a big difference between tunes. Usally very rich on bottom from weakened vacuum signal and a bit lean on top

Yes, but they hard tune the ecu now. So if down the road you add a cam you would swap your ecu for the lvl3 ecu.

So that sounds like just another 400 to spend of the re tune. I guess it would be cheeper in the long run to do straight for the level 3?

Unless you did as TP said, then you'd only have to plug in the new ecu right?

I can set you up with what you need aswell. I use a fuel controller and you adjust adjust the fuel after you do the cam install.

Get a kit from BPS!

The tuner has pre-set maps. All you have to do when you go to the next stage is turn a dial to the next map.

Exactly what i was thinking. Correct me please if im wrong but the bps allows 5%+ or - of the base map, level 1 , level 2 etc. i really like tthat a selectable map can get you close to start and then dial in from there. I would be nervous about 5% covering up a 106 lsa or whatever cam / mods.

If you are interested in something custom give me a call. I can do anything you want. I can allow more than 5% on the trim pots as well on a custom tuner. 385-695-3807

As far as elevation is concerned, I have found it's a non factor. The MAP sensor makes adjustments for that. I have tested the exact same motor, and tune all the way from below sea level in NOLA, to 8500', and the AFR numbers were negligible.
