Began working on a summer e-10 tune. AKA, changed stoich AFR from 14.7 to 14.4 and did NOTHING else because my fucking plug in the downpipe where I need to put my wideband o2 is frozen in place :facepalm Cobalts are actually very easy to tune compared to other platforms. The LS1 has like 3x more parameters that you can edit. lol ---
