i have actually.. i'm so sick of the "performance" shops up here. how are the shops down there?

I have only done business with CFT. That's where I got my dyno... I am making a tuning appt on Monday for FRI 25th... Maybe they can tune a s/c tc and t/c tc the same day Then we hit Orlando Speedway at night

jaxtcracer

hmm.. i was looking at their website and it didn't mention that they tune emanage... haha everything but emanage

Yankee21

Hahaha they don't like the emanage but they will tune it....

I say learn as much as you can yourself as far as tuning goes cause otherwise your always at the mercy of tuners ( they will a$$ rape you in my area)...... plus piggybacks arent overly complex

jaxtcracer

yeah that's a good point... was it you who was posting in another thread about how you're learning a lot right now by reading a bunch of literature on tuning and engine properties? or was that someone else..?

nice matt!! And about you afr gauge it a not hooked up, go under your car and make sure the clip is in and not hanging there! Sweet deal though. Ohhh and your boost spike isn't normal.... Hmmm umma look into that but I've never had that. Enjoy the boost andpay attention to that boost gauge.

haha smells like a copy and paste from a couple pages ago brandon!

btw... is anyone else's intercooler not lined up perfectly centered in their lower grille? mine's definitely not.

jaxtcracer

also, do you guys feel a lot more lurching when you let off the gas and then gently accelerate again? i can really feel the letting on and off of the throttle more... it's a pretty big lurch compared to stock.. is that normal?

java09

mine is almost centered! Just a little off on the right.. As far as the feeling compared to stock, mine does that too..

Bryan06tC

Yeah I mean I dont know if that was my post but that is definitely what I am doing right now..... of course I have the advantage of having an uncle that is teaching me also... cause its what he does for a living... I got a lil knowledge now

i wonder if a torque dampener or motor mounts would solve that problem

Mr_Meaty

Nope. that would not help. Mine does that as well, but it's due to the turbo spolling and slowing down, along with the different fuel curves needed when in and out of boost.

When you let off and get out of boost, obviously your TQ goes back down to stock, and your piggyback sees that you are out of boost so you no longer need as much fuel, so it pulls more, which also makes the car lurch.

If it gets really annoying, just starting putting the clutch in instead of just letting off the gas and keeping it in gear.

I havent been on here in a few days but I'm glad to see you finally got your car running man.

So did your kit ship already man?

jaxtcracer

oh ok. i see. man, it is pretty annoying though haha. it even does it when i'm on cruise control on the highway, that's what i don't get. it's not just when i'm getting on the gas and suddenly letting off. it's the smallest change in throttle (cruise control on a flat surface barely changes throttle but it's enough for my car to lurch back and forth on the highway).

java09

weird mine doesn't do that

jaxtcracer

yeah, that's why i'm thinking it's an issue. i would understand a quick lurch if i all of a sudden got off boost... but it happens when i'm vacuuming as low as -20s

it couldn't be the new clutch just being broken in could it? that wouldn't really make sense.
