Oh shut the hell up. And i have a **** ton of trifecta logs that look like I took a **** and brought it back to life with a lighter. i highly highly doubt u have a log from me. If the car was logged and finished up. So quit talking Ure ****.

 

Also who is this car you speak of????? Reason i ask is there's not one car around you that i have tuned.. so please explain.... So my **** talk will stay not only because trifecta is a shady source for tuning but is also passed around by people that have no idea what tuning is . Some do most don't.

 

i would get the rechargeable batter pack because you dont want to dirty you MSR wheels in the snow

 

cmon dude.. your a great dude. so is gdubs. both of you are great guys. neither one of you should be hatin'

BUT ANYWAYS!!!!!
BACK TO MY CAR! :P hehe

my car is shooting smoke/sputtering/backfiring/farting/dieing/w.e elseing under WOT

did a ghetto boost leak, didnt find anything...

 

No, this is a ” you” problem.

Fix the boost leak... Vince may not tune things the way others would agree with but this is a mechanical issue.

 

sounds more like a sensor issue to me

 

then how come the previous tune i had before this one never had this problem... but this one does... ?

 

Lol sorry op I think its funny cuz he always talks **** but lacks the proof to show...... Anyways back to topic. Op fix ure leak. You can't at all log and get correct readings with a leak.

 

im not sure how to fix my leak exactly... lol. idk where its coming from... im thinking of taking it to a shop and let them do it. haha

 

Fix the leak problem will be gone. Take some brake clean to it

 

i think u should make ur spark plugs and all that is ok then look at the tune.

 

im pretty sure my plugs are fine. ill rip them out tommorow and see what is good

 

did you try to re-install the tune?

I asked because you mentioned that this was an update, and that it ran better on the last tune.

Vince has indicated to me that sometimes people don't get the tune installed properly;

with every tune you have a stock run file, as well as the trifecta tune;
you should also have the ability to install the last version of your tune, assuming you saved it.

Were I you, I'd look at this...

good luck!

 

And have you logged the car and sent the log to Vince? I'm guessing not.... This is def. a mechanical issue, not a tune issue.

 

the thing that made me think it was tune related is that the OP stated that the car ran better on the last tune;
and mentioned nothing of changes that preceded the percieved tune issues from the revised tune...

But that being said;
If the stock tune, or last version of the tune are installed and the same issues are observed, then odds are the tune was installed correctly, and it is a mechanical issue.

 

Well it certainly wouldn't hurt to reflash it and make sure you pick the correct tune file.

 

its the right tune... lol

im not sure how i can install the wrong tune? i just select launch control settings. then i click the engine thing. and i click the tune he sent it to me, and i wait like 5-10 minutes until it hits 100% and it finishes..

after that i let idle for a few minutes, drove it up down my neighborhood, everything seemed, fined. did a datalog at like 3am that night(no traffic) sent to vince, i got not update tune, so im assuming car looked good to him



but what im saying is, this is the first time i ran the car hard. and every time i would do it it would start sputtering

 

if you want... we can look at it this weekend... last update he told me was everything looked good... but if you got a boost leak... tune wont fix that

 

ohh yeaa.. lmaoo. this weekend sounds good.. is sunday good for you?

and yea.. ill try to fix the boost leak. but its suuuuch a small boost leak.

 

please don't do anymore WOT pulls until you figure out whats wrong
but i would check the plugs
check all the piping and clamps both on the charge piping and the intake

 

im not into the whole WOT pulls unless im racing.


im going to pull the plugs out right now actually.

all clamps look good... i really think its the sensor on the lower charge pipe...
that part my friend did... and i dont make mistakes.
so its gotta be his fault

 

pics of my plug... looks good to me..
but im not sure what it looked like brand new.

 

Eh, its a lil carboned up. Just order new plugs, they would be nice to have anyways and it only costs you like $20. You could also try regapping them to 0.30" if they're still at stock gap. Could be getting some blow out.

 

yeah what are these gapped at, the motor is pretty touchy when it comes to plugs

and do you have a maf relocate??

 

no maf relocate...

and i have no idea what my plugs are gapped to. ill go to the nearest advanced tommorow and get that silver quarter looking thing and gap them at .3"



anyone recommend plugs for lnf?
