I seem to be getting some bog when I shift from 2nd to 3rd, and have some decent pressure down on the pedal(not to the floor). It sounds normal, and then after the clutch has lifted, it bubbles and pops. almost like it's choking. any ideas? no codes have been thrown.

 

Sounds like you're shifting at too low of rpms.

 

wow...I'm pretty well insulted you would say that. I was giving it a bit of a go, not driving like your grandmother.....now we're even. no harm done. lol

 

My grandmother is legally blind and doesn't drive anymore, but thanks for the insult. *******.




True story.

 

This. Or your tune is really rich.

 

factory tune....but, isn't the factory tune already really rich??? So is it worth it to get it tuned without any stage upgrades?

 

mine does this hardcore... like real bad. my wideband says my afr drops to like 12 when i shift for like 1 - 2 seconds when it bogs down then goes back to bouncing around 13.8-15.6 or so

im guessing its too rich after i shift???

 

If you have or live near someone with a tune box that can lay a base tune down then retune you if/when you decide to upgrade, I'd go for it.

A short spike is normal when you shift, since your car is going from load to no load (rich) then no load to load (lean), so it takes a split second for the fueling to level itself out. It shouldn't bog or last more than half a second though.

 

Anyone in NS have a tune box that can help me out???? and if so, how much?

 

check the cat

 

Whats a tune box?

 

HPT or Trifecta. They are boxes that can be used to tune. Hence, tune boxes.

 

lol stock everything can be tuned to keep up with a gms2 car till 3rd or 4th but not really worth it IDC's are like 140-150% lmaooooo

 

IDC's???? huh?

If it's the cat, wouldn't there be a code?

Sounds like a valid excuse for a new Downpipe...might open up a few ponies.

 

Any higher than normal boost?

 

it still will peak boost @ 80ish kpa. Haven't seen it higher than that by much.
Just to throw it out there...It happened again today...I shifted @ 3500, so, no granny driving(that's not towards you karlen).

 

The only thing I can think of is maybe a dirty filter? The popping is normal go to a straight through muffler and then talk about popping lol I love it though
