Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q1: Is this controller kit compatible with other LS engines?
While specifically calibrated for the 6.2L LS3, this controller can be used with other Gen IV LS engines with appropriate tuning adjustments. However, for optimal performance and to maintain warranty coverage, we recommend using it with Chevrolet Performance LS3 crate engines as intended.

Q2: What is required to make this system operational?
You’ll need to add a complete fuel delivery system (pump, lines, regulator), ignition components (coils, plugs), charging system (alternator), and all engine sensors. The kit provides the brain and nervous system, but you’ll need to supply the supporting components for a complete installation.

Q3: Can this system be tuned for performance modifications?
Yes, the E92 controller is capable of being tuned for performance applications using GM-specific tuning software. However, any modifications may affect emissions compliance and warranty coverage. For built engines, consider the [Chevrolet Performance Connect & Cruise Package] with matched components.

Q4: Is the wiring harness universal or vehicle-specific?
The included harness is engineered for the LS3 engine and includes all necessary engine connections. Some vehicle-specific adaptation may be required for integration with your particular chassis, including gauges, starting system, and accessory controls.

Q5: Does this kit include transmission control?
This kit is designed specifically for engine management. For automatic transmission applications, you’ll need a separate transmission control unit or a different controller package like the [Chevrolet Performance 6L80E Transmission Control Kit].
