Spoke to a rep from the company. They were hoping to base it off the DI 3.6 tuner for the Camaro, that is on long-term hold due to programming issues. So the one for our cars is basically dead in the water.

Wonderful, now there will be no easy way to re-program the horrible A6 transmission programming.

Yeah, not happy about it. Our only hope is HP Tuners, and that is doubtful. I just wish stupid GM would have programmed the A6 better, or AT LEAST gave us a performance shift button or something!

Since the LY7 isn't used in any performance cars the tuning companies don't want to lay out the cash or time to crack the ECU. Just have to admit it... not many enthusiasts driving these, so most folks wouldn't even bother. There is no profit in it for any of the aftermarket performance companies, thus why we also have no intake. I said this months ago. Sucks, but them's the breaks.

That has been done already as well. The LY7 is on their list, but I have a feeling it won't be getting done anytime soon.

Honestly with all the new direct injected engines coming out I'd wager that the LY7 won't be around much longer.

Yeah, the 2.4L I4....

We are more concerned with the 3.6L V6 that has more potential without major mods....

I have HP Tuners for the LSx V8's. It is great.
