What Do You Do If Your Tuner Punishes You?
What Do You Do If Your Tuner Punishes You?
First of all I would like to state that I have a great tuner that I know he knows his stuff but here is the deal..... recently I sent my ecu back to him so he could remap for an after market catless exhaust and turn off the cel for no cat. I had mentioned that I would sometimes see the dash flash 1.3 bar then drop back to 1.2bar which he explained it was most likely @ 1.22 bar and the dash was just rounding up which is fine by me. I could always tweek the wastgates if needed. So I sent the ecu out to him. It took way too long to get it back to me but watever thats a differnt story all together. So he calls me when its shipped and I asked him about the wastgate adjustment and he says he "TOOK SOME BOOST OUT"! To myself I thought OH DAMN I've just been GROUNDED!.......and sure enough I can't get my dash indicator past 1bar. It will flash 1.1 every so often but I never see 1.2 bar like before
. It used to go straight to 1.2 bar and hold it there. It also seems a bit laggier than before. I believe the the extra modds are making ecu tunning difficult...catless exhaust, ported ceramic coated headers and a 2'nd air intake snorkel to the oem intake with a K&N filter. I believe the bugs will not be worked out till he does a custom dyno tune as promised. SO TONY PLEASE DONT FORGET ME NEXT MONTH WHEN YOU ARE DOWN HERE TUNING.

. Next time no changes with out data logs. I only took out 1-2%. The car must be touchy right in that zone.
