ha ha ha ha apparantly your tune isnt dead on ive done a turboed lsj and had him running 21 * without kr at 22lbs so if your gonna come in here and prove a point truly find someone who dont know what there talking about... a kr of ....0000002 cant cause a detonation to bust a ringland crack a sleeve, crack a piston ect, if your plugs are bad, be smart change them out or you will pay for it. i have tuned for years apon years now and i know how to tune and if you want a opinion of mine, how can a tune be dead on with bad plugs not trying to be rude or disrespectful but i truly am right here. i have a car that i tuned on meth, lsj and it gets random kr, you know why? BAD GAS....

i get what your say'n but your acting like im bashing you...... ive ran my car for almost a year on this tune runin ppl on a regular and nothing has happened. my tune is dead on but you fail to realize that my plugs need to be changed now so thats why knock shows up rarely when i got my tune i put in the plugs the same day so tell me how can the tune be bad????... as for me changing the plugs ill get to it when i can unless you want to do it for me(your call). im not saying knock isnt bad but come on....0.1 wont go kaaaboom! its bad yes but not that bad. yes you have tuned cobalts for years but that doesn't mean every word you say is the problem.

whateva you want to say, say it but im done because i have work in the morning.... op just dont wot and get a retune but save your current tune on a flash drive so when summer rolls around you have it already.

When u have say bar plugs ure car will change fuel rims for them because they r not sparking correctly to burn all fuel so when u throw new plugs in u will be off and a tune that's 3 years old might not be off to u but it can always be looked at and revised.

Let the wideband adjust the fueling for the temperature changes. Tweaking a tune every 5-10* is retarded.

No I do my own car smart one. I do thus so my ecm don't have to compensate if u want to tak why I do this then u really have no idea of the question ure even asking. Dr balt u prob agree because u don't understand why I do the tuning so often.

I realize you tune your own car, why have a car with such an advanced ecu if youre tuning it so much you think your trims are perfect when they havent even settled to the last flash. Quick to jump to namecalling arent we? I blame lack of vocabulary

but my malfunctioning IC pump may be more to blame.
The new one arrives tomarrow UPS so I'm fine
Ive left my Interceptors on KR and so Im normaly steady
at 0.0 so im safe

for any of you who think i am illiterate on tuning or my vocab sucks then u are by far way out of bounds. I usually am typing on my phone. So if there is a word messed up or configured wrong then sorry go back to your highschool and complain to your teacher about me. My tuning, umm let me think. ill give my car this, when i had my lsj the most i seen my trims off were .1-.-1 so that should tell you a little and this is also the ve. I tune my lnf not all the time but if the temp changes at least 10* i will tune it for the tempand keep that tune so its saved and i dont have to revise my current tune. about the car relearning its trims i dont litterally tune every damn 5 mins so calm down and enjoy the fact you have no idea what your talking about.

For anyone that knows me or my customers that ive tuned, i know alot, meaning i prob know alot more then most. So dont bash unless you truly are better then me.

thanks

dr balt the ss tcs dont come with a narrow band they come witha wideband. And i like the 1.8 but if i had a choice id go diesel lol.

insylem, if your ic pump is bad dont go wot, be smart. It is a crucial part of the lsj, if you want to see your pistons in your lap go right ahead and keep going wot. winter gas has a crucial part on kr . so calm down till its all figured out bro.

Im enjoying the fact I dont know what im talking about im sure you know how to tune and are the best there is in kentucky for ecotecs. You are not god tho and your condescending attitude shows what kind of person you are. I still think tuning for 10* of temp change is excessive but hey you do you. Good luck with your car hopefully you get it figured out.

Op cold, dense air is a killer for lsj's your tuner needs to add fuel. Ringlands dont like being pushed to their limits heat wise. Add fuel and you will be fine.

ya, well my car is my DD and during normal DD, my KR always stays at 0.0 so I'm fine for now. I'll see what happens when I throw in my new IC Pump, and get my IATs back down to normal.

this is getting out of hand op knos what has to be done, i dont see how grammer and personality got into this...

Chevycobaltss3 you can tune, if you couldn't there would be threads up ****'n your rep up big time we both gave our opinions about knock and thats all thats needed. without a doubt you kno way more than me, i just kno the basics to get by. we have to remember this is a place to learn from each other not talk about bad grammer or how a person acts when we only kno them by screen name we need to calm down......sheech!
