We just recently tuned the car on the stock injectors with the 2.8' pulley and the car is running great but my IDC is at 90%, so i will be installing the injectors this week but i need a tune for the injectors...

im at 6200' altitude BTW so im guessing the AFR will have to be tweaked a little once the tune is uploaded?

 

Wow....

 

like i said... im at 6200' so we wanted to see how well the stock injectors held up with the 2.8, it didnt reach 90% untill 7000rpm in third gear so normal driving is fine and ill keep the revs under 4k untill i get the injectors installed with a new tune, but i need the tune first

 

i have one, but you need 112 octane to run it.
so no, not going to happen.

 

2.8+stock injectors=bad idea
2.8+42's=pushing it

just get 60's and call it a day

 

He's in Colorado and can get away with things those of us at sea level or close to it can't.
I can send you a stage 2 tune with torque reduction removed, boost changed in first if you want. I don't have anything specific for a 2.8 but that is close enough.

 

Thats what I need...Frank hook a brotha up
I got a 2.9 now though

 

Will hasn't hooked you up..??

 

Hell know...lol Will's been slippin' I haven't been able to get ahold of him

 

Well, do you have HPTuners..??

 

No...I'm too broke to even have the H in HP...lol
When are you coming back?

 

Does having it tuned specificaly for the 2.8 make much of a difference?

boost reduced in 1st gear would be great, i have some serious traction issues.
my email is intalect187@msn.com

 

Its not specific for the 2.8. You can actually use the tune and compare yours and make changes to it.

 

oh i know the tune you have isnt specific for the 2.8, i was just asking if having a 2.8 specific tune makes that big of a difference... the tune i have now isnt specific for the 2.8 either, but it sure as hell pulls alot harder than the stock tune with the 2.8

 

I graduate the 26th of Oct...so the next week after that.


the email is sent

 

Awesome... i really appreciate it

 

n.p. .......................

 

how hard is it to learn how to tune with hptuners?

 

With small steps, anything is easy.

 

what do you mean?

 

its easy to make changes to the settings, its a pita to figure out why things happen without a baseline knowledge.
Go to the hptuner forum, sign up and just read. There are some really great books on tuning, one of them was written by a member there.

 

cool thanks a lot doc +rep

 

I'll find my list of books soon....
