These guys in cold climates, it's like cheating. I could go out in the rain and light up 3rd, but what does that prove?
Same with drag times, i'd love to see any of these clowns go to PBIR and run the times they pull everywhere else. You haven't fought the air until you race in the swamp in the summer

Hey guys it's been a long time since I've been on here lol, anyways after 2 yrs of only putting 1k miles on my car total, and done being pissed off at it I've finally started to play with it again. I've come upon a few things that are throwing me through a loop..
1 being I'm running the stock hahn tune and I'm getting a couple codes like p2226 and misfire codes
2 being I've got a horrible freaking idle, to the point where it won't stay running it will randomly drop off and stall, but sometimes its perfectly fine and sit and idle all day long
Now I've. Replaced the plugs, checked. All my vaccum lines and all that jazz still doing all this garbage
Any thoughts orinputs would be awesome
Sorry for shitty typing I'm doing this on my slow ass droid lol

Do all of the basic maintenance if the car has been sitting, new fuel filter, plugs, fluids, cracks in any lines, gaskets, check over to make sure all of the manifolds and stuff are still torqued properly and check your o2 sensor
hope this gets you started and on the way to running again.

Here's hoping, any one having any oil leak troubles? Even before I parked my car to get married / house, I knoticed I get a nice coating of mobil1 on the passenger side of the car. I cleaned it all up the other day drove it in to work yesturday looked at it after dinner and still had a film but I can't find where its coming from. I thought it might be the elbow on the backfeed? Line where the turbo drains to the oilpan but the second line going up the the block... but it was clean... any thoughts?

alright also to bump this up, i got 2 codes P0033 (SC Bypass Control Circuit) and P2229 (Baro Sensor) already "Cleaned" the baro sensor going to see if it makes a difference, and anyone know why im getting the Bypass Valve code??

What finally fixed it for me:
Back to the stock oil cap
Rear valve cover vent went to the turbo inlet
Adjust Idle scaler to bring idle timing to what I'm commanding (4,000 - 5,000 ballpark?)
At one point I had the PCV valve disabled as I felt it was letting in unmetered air that was being pulled from rear valve cover vent, which on a stock car was routed after the MAF. Didn't help much but made the car idle like **** once I flipped on the AC. Seems like trying to emulate a stock setup had the best results for me.

A little easier said then done I'm afraid, I don't have hpt nor do I know of anyone in a 25 mile radius who does lol... is it affecting performance? Or can it just be left alone? See this is the stock hahn tune and imho I don't think its right and by right meaning half assed some how for my application...

did you get the file from hahn and how was it flashed to your car? Ive used a lot of files that were written to the pcm as a "copy over differences" style of flash and I rarely see the DTCs get changed over when that occurs.
If whomever setup your car did this style then it isnt Hahn's fault, would be the tuners fault.
If you were in Texas I could help you out... lol I know that doesnt help just saying.

Idle Scaler, raise it if it's pulling a ton of timing when your at idle, I try to keep mine around 10-15.

I sent my pcm to hahn while waiting for my kit... so whatever that entales? Not to knock on the quality but their customer service is a joke at best. I've emailed and called and finally just gave up. Had one guy even tell me that it doesn't matter? Well I'm sure it doesn't but its kind of annoying jumping in and seeing the CEL all the time hey? Just my opinion don't anyone go all crazy for me expressing it LOL

Ive never had any problem with Hahn, they usually go out of their way to help, but its been a while since Ive dealt with them and they may have had some personnel changes.
With that I would say the best thing to do is to find someone to turn the codes off or reinstall the SCIP sensor. I believe there is a space in the manifold for that sensor and that may be why they didnt turn it off.

He's driven a turbo lsj a lot longer then you, so in my book his opinions matter, no offense. It's just an opinion and let his be heard. Being on this forum for awhile, its easy to come to the conclusion that Hahn is nonexistent. And the reason is what? Usually vendors disappear for a reason. If Hahn was so great that kit would be flying off the shelf. Zzp's kit is by far higher quality and more researched. Just look at the ic piping. Looks like Hahn bought a bunch of universal ic piping kits until they found what works, then repainted it and sell it for more. Zzp actually took the time to make a kit with less couplers and spots for boost leaks. Haha and what about Hahns no tapping the oil pan "oil return" solution, didn't people have a problem with that constantly leaking?

Anyone know of any Tuners around NW-PA who's dealt with turbo cobalts?
