  • Improved response from the throttle pedal, NO NEED FOR EXTERNAL THROTTLE BOOSTERS!

  • Tuning support for datalogging and custom revisions
  • Tuning support for new mods as you add them, for as long as you own the vehicle


Why get an Overkill tune versus the competition?
  • Specialized in the GM Direct Injection V6 motors. From revised cam phasing, fully reconstructing spark timing tables and fully revised throttle calibration, an Overkill tune is more comprehensive than what you'll get at your local dyno shop, or a do-all tuning provider.
  • Datalogging. You'll get your Overkill tunes but it doesn't stop there. You can scan with our handheld while driving and send that data for review and tune updates, to get a tune that's more customized for your vehicle
  • Support for your mods. Not only are we the only company with an E85 Flex Fuel conversion kit or a larger 80mm throttle body kit, but we also have the right tuning to ensure you get the most from them!
  • Retunes. With our handheld, retuning for your future modifications is complimentary and easy to provide

Autocal Handheld: The best way for us to provide 2012+ CTS 3.6 tuning for you is through our Autocal handheld system. The Autocal handheld allows you to take the handheld to the vehicle, read the factory file, upload our Overkill tunes and provide scan data, with no laptop required. Return to stock calibration whenever you want, apply updates and retunes easily through email with us and Overkill retuning is available at no charge for as long as you own your CTS.




This combo pairs Overkill Tuning through our Autocal handheld with our E85 Flex Fuel kit. You'll get Overkill tuning for 87 and 91/93 octane gasoline, plus tuning for E85 Ethanol fuel which out performs its gasoline counterparts.

The flex fuel kit retrofits a GM flex fuel sensor into the fuel system, and relays a precise ethanol content of the fuel in the system to the computer. In combination with Overkill tuning, the computer will adjust air/fuel targets for any ethanol blend. You can switch between gasoline and E85 ethanol as desired without requiring any changes to the vehicle once this kit and Overkill tuning is installed. Simple installation will take you 30 minutes. This is by far the best bang for your performance buck on a 3.6 LFX V6!

The only larger throttle body for the 2012+ LFX 3.6 is available here at Overkill. The factory throttle body is 72mm, as are ported units on the market. Our 80mm throttle body solution dwarfs the stock unit and will allow the your engine to breathe, improving horsepower, improving throttle response (particularly with Overkill tuning) and changes the intake note of the V6 to a deeper growl at heavy throttle.

This kit bolts to the stock intake manifold with no tuning required, yet works best when used with a ported intake manifold modified to a matching 80mm inlet. Kit uses a brand new throttle body with an aluminum adapter plate and stainless steel bolts. Newest kits now come with an o-ring seal! There is no core charges, we don't need you to send in your factory throttle body.

Tip: This throttle body has a 3.5" clamping area, compared to the factory throttle body of 3". Ensure you have a solution available before installing the throttle body! Look below for what we offer for your current intake.

For K&N owners, use this 3.5" to 3" straight reducing coupler http://www.siliconeintakes.com/intake-pipe-reducer/tube-reducer-p-74.html
