Hey everyone,
so I've been reading alot on this GMS1 upgrade and a few things pop into my mind.
1. being that this upgrade is a pre-formatted burn and will not tune for peripheral add-on's like intake and downpipes or exhausts... what is everyone's thoughts on what occurs to the ECU when it senses increased flow from the additional add'ons.. does the system auto correct to some degree and you get an even more increased power output? or...
Since GMS1 advertises add on's can't be tuned for and you don't get 100% out of what you paid for... does the pre burn, since its tuned for stock components, actually degrade the performance of the car with peripherals added on?... even if some gains are seen, is there a likelyhood of CEL risk or A/F ratios being thrown off and the car knocking or running even more lean?
(I assume from reading alot of your posts, most are seeing gains with the additional add on's... but as I understand it, Turbo cars these days are much more finicky since ECU controls are so much more advanced.) plus with potential warranty issues, does GM also have intake addon's or downpipe add on's ? so far I've seen some for the SC versions.. but not for the TC... and if the car remains mostly stock.. What add on would be the best without voiding warranty AND benefit from the GMS1?
2. since it seems that there are "some" mixed results on installations, maybe as a group we could post
some type of sucessful Dealer locations map where people had good or bad experiences? ... just a thought.
thanks everyone, glad to be involved!

There's about 10 - 15 of us but some of them are either: deployed, never come out, ass holes, or are either roaming the streets looking for other cobalts. I know of 3 (including me) that come out on a regular occasion.
