The AutoSync programmer does not work on T1 trucks and his programming is limited to BCM stuff.  So, he can't disable autostop or turn off AFM.

 

 

The programmer does work on T1s but for the AFM/Autostop, you're correct.  It can still remove the speed limiter however.  That, along with some other things like remote window UP, fog lights with brights, fog lights with normal headlights on automagically...... The route I'm going to take.

The AutoSync does not work.  The flash tool to update the BCM with all the changes you are describing does work.  That said, they are virtually the same thing I'm told. 😁

Look into White Auto Media.  He's on back order right now but IMHO, it's a much better option since the BCM is programmed instead of a piggyback device.  @GTPprix is the owner.  Seems like a great guy

 

EDIT:

Seems like he has the programmer back in stock.  Now... to convince the wife this is something I NEED

 

Does Chris have a programmer to buy and have, or is it still on a rent the programmer, down load the desired programing, load into truck and return programming device, type of thing?

You now purchase the programmer for 100 bucks and it's yours for life which is pretty sweet.  I also asked him if I wanted to make an adjustment 2 weeks or so because I didn't like how it behaved and that would be included.  I'm not sure if there would be an EOL on support for it but it sounds like he's being pretty open to make adjustments when needed

Those of you with the Pulsar, did you mount the device to the top of the airbox as instructions state or somewhere else?  It seems to me the better place would be on the vertical support in the cavity behind the headlight.  Also, does the OEM harness plug just kind of hang loosely under the Pulsar one once it replaces the OEM plug on the side of the airbox?

That’s exactly where I mounted mine.

Well if Chris would have had a programmer to have back when I probably would have went with him.  I've dealt with him for many years, and is a great guy.  I don't seem to have the same man crush as you do though.  lol.  I also agree with lapoolboy, the Pulsar LT looks hideous under the hood.

Sounds like you two have been dating a long time.  Jokes aside, he seems honest but I'm entirely new to this.  Just went ahead and dropped the coin on it.  Will be giving an honest review

Ha.  We've been dating since about 2006.  He worked with a great tuner at Vector Motorsports by the name of Kirk Deerhammer(sp) who has apparently fallen of the face of the earth.

Nice!  My first "tuning" experience was on an 870 ECM (1985 Trans Am) ... moved up to HP Tuners on my 2000 Trans Am and then had kids etc... so it was a plain jane DD for a few years.

 

Let us all know when you go to pop the question!?

Mine finally came in the mail today but of course I’m at work. Can’t wait to get home tomorrow and install. I’m tired of hearing the dfm and the auto stop feature.  I was worried that it was never going to come because of the website I ordered from but it did and I got it for a great price.

So anyone get a cel from the pulsar Lt?

No, I have installed and uninstalled mine 3x now no CEL as of yet.

I have ran premium and regular unleaded with it installed.

    • I know; crap pictures.   Anyway, as a finale of sorts to this thread, I had replaced both differential covers and since they had the capability of adding temperature probes, I did that. These are MaxTow analog/digital gauges with stepper motors. They'll flutter around like crazy for a moment and start at a nominal 100 degrees Fahrenheit.   I drove a 30-mile loop to the grocery store, averaging 70 MPH (as much as 80 to see if there was a quick spike in temperature. The air temperature is 102 (ambient ?). but the first pic is 7 miles into the trip. The second is getting back into the truck after leaving the store; differential temperatures dropped about three to four degrees in 15 minutes. The third pic in on the road to my house, about a mile away.   In that run, I saw a high of 150F on the rear differential, and 121F on the front. I'm sure a longer drive or towing will see higher than that, and when that happens, I can update the observations. 
    • You don't want to become predictable now, do you? 😏
    • Fully warm, coolant temp >194, closed loop.   Run time can be anywhere from just reached operating temperature to having driven 30+ miles.   The O2 chart (which is a feature I just discovered after reading) for the bad idle seems to be "most" of the time. For the little time I've been watching it (scanning and driving! watchout!) I can't seem to isolate any cause or condition yet.   It definitely idles rougher sometimes than others and so far what I've seen is the rougher idles are always rich. But not enough to set a CEL.   In other news I replaced the starter solenoid. Everything on this truck is such a PITA. Starter "snout" is mangled up with the torque converter inspection cover which is tangled up with hard cooling lines and the driveshaft. But I got 'er done without too much swearing...I just go into everything now knowing it's going to be a frustrating mess.   The starter solenoid replacement kicks off the next round of work: AC, injector rebuild, cat, exhaust. I'm just going to do it all. But first:   I don't know what my fuel pressures are. I can't definitively say the issue is the injector without first verifying fuel pressures and any leakdown. I "rented" a test kit ($199.99 at O'Really's ...intentional misspelling). They don't "rent" tools anymore, they charge you for the tool and then you return it when you're done. No joke. It is listed as a rental on the receipt but the guy told me there's no difference between renting and buying  now, you just return it when you're done and they refund the credit card. Mmmkay, whatever.   I will rule out fuel pressure issues (too much), and any leaking (that's how I'll know the problem is inside the intake). I think someone said the return line could be plugged or not flowing and that could cause high fuel pressure (and too much fuel being pushed through injectors). I'll cross that bridge if I get high readings.   As of now I'm ready to tear off the intake cover, extract the injector, and have it sent off to be rebuilt just so I can rule that out.
    • What are the conditions of this rich idle? Warm or cold engine? Run time? Does every idle look like this or only sometimes?
