    Car is tuned (almost)

    I'm in Goodyear, but definitely. I was considering going to Texas, but it is quite a bit farther for me than going to LA. It's only about a 5-6 hour drive to get back to the tuner if needed, and i make trips to california much more often. The shops in LA are top notch too. They build some...

    Car is tuned (almost)

    haha. Ya, been about a year now. Been to two different tuners on multiple occasions. First tuner lied to me and wouldn't give me any info on the tune. I couldn't get a dyno graph with a/f on it and i didn't trust them, so i went to a different tuner. The second tuner couldn't tune the car and...

    Car is tuned (almost)

    I'm sure some of you remember my issues with getting the car tuned. I finally decided i'd just make the drive up to LA to get it done. Beats dealing with the tuners breaking s**t or trying to rip me off around here. I've got a few small issues to work out still, but the car seems to be running...

    The cost was a little much for me. Normally, it isn't too much of a problem to tune the car, so it just didn't/doesn't seem necessary to spend the money when there are other alternatives. That and the car is a street car. It needs to pass emissions, which is just an OBD2 check. I'm not sure...

    Thanks. I'm just looking for any ideas at this point, no matter how off the wall they might be. If we can't fix the issues soon, the car is going to another shop to have all the wiring looked over. If we still can't find the problem it's off to another tuner to see what they think. Last...

    Talked to the tuner this morning. He's already tried swapping chips. Even tried a different chip w/ the other ECU we treid and no change. He's rewiring some stuff today, so we'll see what happens with that. Not sure what post you're referring to, but i have been nothing but serious in this thread.

    Been trying to call the tuner all week and haven't been able to get a hold of him. I'm starting to get pissed. I'm told almost every other day that he'll call me back, but never does.

    What? The car is at the tuners. The datalogs are all from him, with the car on the dyno.

    I'm going to talk to the tuner about the chip tomorrow. As far as i know we haven't swapped chips. And it's not any of the sensors. The problem is showing up in multiple sensors. We've put them on an oscilloscope to check the actual signal and they all look good. We also swapped out the speed...

    It's showing up on the gauge cluster too though. It's not just the datalog that is weird. Looking at the raw data shows the problem. The sensor will freeze at a certain value and then updates a few seconds later. The tuner is using the same program and laptop on multiple cars and isn't...

    Seriously. Stock ECU w/ chip. We've swapped the ECU from another car, no change. I'm starting to wonder if it could be the chip. I'll have to talk with the tuner about that tomorrow. We've never tried another chip as far as i know. I had 60lb injectors for the break in tune. I'm running...

    Wiring or RF interference. We've gone over all the wiring, cut power to all aftermarket electronics (my gauges, boost controller, radio, and turbo timer). We've put an oscilloscope on the crank and speed position sensors to see what they're doing, and they look good on the sensor end. As...

    SCT. It's not just the tuning software or the computer used to grab the datalog. This is showing up in the tach and speedometer as well. They will freeze and then jump, just like the graphs.

    I'm having some major problems getting my car tuned. I know it's not a Honda, but i'm wondering if any of you have seen anything like this before. The datalog is showing everything like a stair step. Tach, RPM, Air Flow signal, etc all jump around. Speed is jumping 10+ mph in some places...

    Finally broke into the 12's

    :lol: Mid 10's would be enough for me. Ya, i definitely need to work on the launch and i'm definitely hurting a few MPH with the shifting issue. We'll see what happens when the tune is good and i've had some time to get used to the car again. It hasn't been at the track in a couple years...

    Finally broke into the 12's

    No, which f**king sucks. My second race was against my roommate in his 03 Cobra. He's running a 2.2 Kenne Bell and makes ~530 to the wheels. He ran a 12.42@118. I had a better reaction time (.6 vs .7), but with the KB he pulled from me off the line and i slowly started reeling him in once the...
