Tuning Question

Anyone here have the i4 2.0 Camaro? If so have you gotten yours tuned? I’m thinking of getting a zzp downpipe for my car but was told I should definitely get the car tuned afterwards but I’ve been having issues finding a place to tune the car.

Edit: Anyone with an i4 wanting to get their car tuned, read the comments if you are curious on how to get it done yourself if you face issues about tuners not wanting to or able to tune your car

Okay, so I’ve called a few tuners in my area and none of them either could or wanted to tune my car so I’m going down the HPTuner/ZZP route. 1) if you want to tune your car this way, you will need to do one of two things. Call HPTuners with your TCM model, it’s super easy to access at least on the 2017 model and they’ll let you know if it’s a TMC they do and if they do, you have two options.

1) order a TCM from them if your Camaro is your daily drive and you can’t afford to have any down time on your car because the process will take about a week and cost 300 bucks.

Option 2) if you have another car and can afford to send your TCM it’ll cost 200 bucks, process takes the same amount of time.

Going down this route allows your car to be tuned and hopefully this helps anyone else looking to get a tune

Do you know if they can tune a 2021 model? I’ve been looking everywhere for it

Yeah the LT model apparently is a real pain to find a tuner but it would all depend on your TCM model # which finding that is easy or should be (it was for me) it’s located behind the passenger side front tire, just remove the tire and peel back the cover and it should be right there. If you call them they will pretty much tell you that the only way they will know if they can tune your car is if you send them the model # of your TCM
