see my above post. i'm hoping today or tomorrow they try what he said they will and call me with some good ass news. haha

 

I read the email but didn't check the date time, lol

 

Sounds like today might be the day they start it! Sounds like a dream but fingers crossed!

 

dont walk under any ladders today

 

Fingarz crossed

 

Well i guess today wasnt the day

 

:'(

 

Drats

 

poo

 

al i'm trying to consider what to do if they get it running; because it all depends on what we tune for.

i'm wondering if we should just use a base tune based on my whole current setup with the tvs and LS4 tb and just roll out of there, head your way, install the other stuff and go from there? or if i should have them go through with installing the fuel system and we remote between you and here, then hope that later i can make it to you for a better in person tune? follow me?

thanks

 

You can install fuel system, just leave reference line off and set base at 58 psi.

 

you mean the return line? Its the return style setup, not boost referanced.

 

"return style" still hooks up to a vacuum source and adjusts fuel pressure 1:1 with boost/vacuum, but you can choose to not connect the line to and it will hold constant pressure. ie leave that port on the regulator open to atmosphere

so if you set the base pressure at 10 psi and make 5lbs of boost, the fuel pressure will raise to 15psi. It will also drop below the base pressure with vacuum. obviously low numbers, just a round example lol

It is technically a boost reference system

 

Correct. Rsfs, brfs, brfps, brrsfs, it's all the same damn thing.

 

oh. okay haha

well al we will see what happens when i guess; i'd love to just get it all installed there and have a nice little remove dyno tune, then come see you when i get a chance to tweak if needed.

 

so did they not try to start it, or did it fail to start?

 

idk i haven't gotten an update.

 

Right in the feels

 

Well they said they are gonna remove the crank cover to see if i broke the oil pump... Thats all the email said so im guessing the power steering pump didnt do the trick.

 

Pretty soon you're gonna get an email that ways "we thing your car is broke, so we're going to try a new car"

Seriously dude. Get it out of there. I had hope when Matt was working on it but on fb you said dave is... I'm not throwing stones.. Just get it somewhere else.

 

I'm with Alan on this... no wayyy in hell this should be taking so long.

Scares me a bit, cuz it seems they really have no idea whats wrong, and are just trying things and hoping for the best.

 

just bring it to my place, Rice. I will use my IT skills to unplug and replug everything back in and see if it starts working.

...and in the meantime you can help strip fatmat

 

Guys i'm not trying to say anything bad about them. It was my observance that Dave was doing most of it recently but i don't know that for sure; Matt is too. Its a complex problem that could be 1 in a million for all i know. They are doing good work and they arent nickel and diming me to death like GM would.

If i were to pull it out of there idk where i would take it next lol. Seriously lost.

 

This is my life. Trust me, I'm a professional

 

I agree with Alan and staged... It feels like they've had your car for weeks.

Not to be negative, but damn man... I could never have the patience you have. I understand they have other projects, but you're paying them so that's quite a poor excuse from a business standpoint. They need to give you a time deadline not just work on it when they feel like it.

ZZP wouldn't be a bad option IMO.
