I see no one mentioning doing the battery disconnect and ECM relearn process except for some that may throw a code. But over in another vendor's ported TB thread and website, there is this two page ECM relearn instruction sheet that the vendor states is necessary to perform for all (giving several options on how to do so). I just plugged mine in and didn't do that procedure, but am curious as to why one vendor strongly suggests that procedure while Tony has not mentioned anything special to do with the exception of those few who throw a code. I assume the ECM relearns on it's own in a few drive cycles with varied speeds, yet the other vendor claims it is highly preferable to do their detailed ECM relearn process. I wonder if anybody has done a comparison of ECM relearn processes on the TM V2 to just let the ECM do its thing or go through the detailed process recommended by the other vendor? |

I received Tony's V2 TB, I installed it and went for a test drive.... I noticed an immediate improvement off idle to mid-range and beyond..

After reading all of the Soler PTB string, and their insistence of doing the battery disconnect and relearn process plus some relearn steps outlined, I decided to try that process as well. Not sure if that is overkill or not as Tony hasn't mentioned that being necessary except for those who threw a code. |

I decided to go with.... (B) Abbreviated learning routine. Skip battery disconnect and only do the rest of steps in bold red font in procedure C) below. Relearn takes longer, at least 100 miles subdivided into10 driving cycles. BTW.. Thanks for posting that link.

If it's driving great dont do a thing......just let the computer relearn more as you drive it. The more time you can give it (driving with some moderation in mind), the less chance of an issue you will have regarding dealing with codes etc. The V2 is a really sweet piece.....I admittedly spent far too much time on that project but it's certainly nice when people like yourself can look at it and appreciate it. Thanks for taking the time to get me some feedback.....send me a link to that thread if you get the chance Cheers, Tony |

Hi all, looks like a great product and it seems plenty of very happy customers.
I'm considering a V2 for my car but wondering if anyone has first hand experienced of installing one into a supercharged LT1 (relatively safe tune); I have no doubt about potential gains but wondering if it will continue to be plug & play on a custom dyno tuned boosted engine.

I say may.....its probably a coin toss with odds a little bit more in your favor than the house.....LOL So if touching up the tune is something you don't want to deal with you should go the safe route and get an LT1V2......if you're willing to throw those dice than get an LT4 version. Even an LT1 V2 is a big gain in CFM (airflow) and power (and responsiveness) over stock.....you would be very happy with either choice but the LT4 version would have a touch more part throttle response based on how its shaped versus the LT1. Hope you find this info helpful -Tony |

I have a Tony Mamo PTB V2 on my SS 1LE. However, I recently purchased a ZL1. I retained the TM PTB V2. I recall reading that the TB for the LT1 and LT4 are the same. So logic would suggest that Tony's PTB for my SS 1LE would simply bolt on to my ZL1 LT4? But Tony's comments above suggest otherwise. Can a LT1 V2 be used on a LT4? |
