I have seen too many guys charge big bucks for doing WOT only tunes.
WOT tuning is the easy part, it's the part throttle that makes or breaks driveability.
What do you use for tuning?
I dabble in some OBD2 stuff using Tunercats 2. I was lucky enough to get a system before John sold the rights to Jet.
Are Tunercats OBD 1 definition files decent for the ZR-1's?

It would take a lot of dyno time to replicate part throttle real world driving. I could see it done using an engine dyno. I started out using TC for bin editing but like TunerPro these days. I use EASE for datalogging and Moates Ostrich for emulation. I've probably burned over 1500 different calibrations between the Xfire and the LT5 motor and not all had to do with just VE and Spark.
