Is there a way to adjust how touchy our gas pedals are, im tired of mine throwing a fit in first gear when i hit a small bump

 

very much agreed, i have no idea tho..

 

get the stage reflash it actually fixes that a lot.

 

Its annoying how jumpy it is! I always think people on the sidewalks are laughing at my surging car as I pass by. Has anyone experimented with heavier springs in the pedal?

 

i have this problem too, cant stand it! if the reflash fixes it i guess i got another reason to buy a stage kit.

 

Yea the reflash actually helps a lot. I think it has someting to do with the injectors too. Because i noticed a differnce as soon as i popped in the bigger injectors and drove to the dealer to get the flash. It's like a completely differnt car after the flash.

 

Another reason for the stage kit yay!

 

Some skilled clutch work can smooth this out, but I agree. The new flash is the way to go.

 

with mine its like the smoother i try to be the worse it is

 

or get a custom tune for $100.

 

A custom tune works with your stock OS, the stage tune is an entire new OS.

 

where?

 

by stage tune you are talking about the stage 2 kit? or either of the stage kits. Also, if I uy the GM stage 2 kit for now, can HP Tuners tune that OS or would I be SOL? (like if i get the stage kit would i be unable to tune the car at a later date for a custom tune?)

 

theres not really any way to adjust the pedal. the throttle is control electronicly. you can have the pcm reprogramed with the latest updateand it will probably fix it. you dont have to program it with the stage 2 reflash. theres one availible for non modded cars as well

 

Yeah I find it funny lol. My friends are always like dang dude can't you drive a stick? I tell them I can't help it haha

 

I got my gmpp installed in september by gm dealer and they reflashed it, am i reading right there is a new reflash since then that is different?

 

once rob turned off boost in first ear it stopped happening to me

 

well... great thread... so... looks like a tune is the only way??

Is there any worth in getting tuned if you're running stock boost like me?

I'm really tired of the car surging like mad when I go through the horrible bumpy intersections here in Charlotte. You hit a bump... your foot moves a bit on the gas pedal... makes the car jump... which makes your foot move worse... etc.

The only way I've "fixed" it is by just letting off or shifting to 2nd when it starts happening.

 

mine threw a fit, still does.. ive gotten used to it.
