omg well we were tuning my car went into limp mode, not sure why... thinking one of the harness for the injectors is toast, im not sure what to do anymore, and luiggi with all his girl problems and uncertainty is really making me doubt wether it was wise to go with him ugh.

i mean luiggi is there to strictly tune ur car good but what can he possibly do if the car isnt running properly in the first place?

what size injectors are u running i may have some extra 550's but i gotta look around.

The car mechanically (installation wise) is fine. Shop? nah i build my **** dont buy it. He reviewed everything before we started and he said i was the few that actually did everything right, only problem on my part was T-ing off the one available vacuum line to many times, so we disconnected all the unecessary ones and vacuum is perfect once again, but now no boost controller. He said he'll get me a vacuum block (he calls it vacuum box) so we can solve that issue. He handled most of the clippings of the injectors later in the game, he even had trouble clipping the one that went bad on us, and he ended up taking it apart before. Trying to force it i think lead to the problem, but theirs some other crap i wanna check that might speed along the process

Thanks pete im really hoping to get this crap resolved as well, it really sucked not being able to go over 30 mph last night ugh. Got home at 6am. Does it matter if the MAF is flipped downward? because we did that when we saw more available space if we did that, and one of my friend says that could be it. Its def still the clip problem ima just flip it for precaution and good measure, my injectors are still good sothanks soflo, just got to figure out how to fix this damn clip...

He couldnt do it yesterday, Halloween and all, plus he had some cars at the shop, but he said he'll try today, ima bout to give him a call cuz i also have stuff to do tonight and i cant wait till 9 pm to start like we usually do

Im not really sure, luiggi was the one messing around with the fuel rail before, so im nto sure what he did, or if its something i did that fixed it but it works again. I reset the ecu and didnt do anything, so i reseated the fuel rail and swapped out a previously blown ingition fuse that was swithced to a 20 back to a 15 and she now magically works again

i was gonna tune with luiggi but i do not have that much money to tune with him. so i'm waiting for lujan motorsports to tune my car. which they charge 100 an hour and they dont take much long to tune. when i was supercharged it took them an hour an a half. but lately lujan havent been able to get there tuner which i think its pablo. does anyone know someone around that price range good though?

well luiggi tunes ur car to every rpm level and does everything possible to make it run smooth as possible at all times.. when someone like japtrix tunes u they throw ur car on the dyno and tune u to WOT and say here u go..
