Says the guy that ran 4 tenths slower in his own car than I did after 2 passes in the driver seat.

Instead of chasing ghosts I would take it to someone who actually knows their ****. Who knows it could be something simple.

Yeah ok at $100 an hour sure I will jump right on that. Who the **** would I take it to here in town, dealerships suck and don't know ****. So that leaves Motion, Walls, or Cdn Super Shop.

There you go you just named 3 shops. So what mike whenever you have a problem you can't figure out on your own with your car you're just gonna sell it?

If you do I call dibs on your heat exchanger

I am just ****** pissed off about it and losing my tolerance of jokes about it the more I can't solve it. I have a half hour to kill before kickboxing class tonight and its above the Cdn Super Shop so I will kill some time and talk to them about it see if they are willing to take a look and what cost etc....

I say sell it because every one is saying its a POS or just plain fucked so i get frustrated.

Mike:

can you have fun in your car?

is it leaving you high & dry still?

It might be easy for me to say this, but I'd encourage you to not let yourself get too wrapped up in fixing a problem, and instead take it as it comes, and enjoy the small victories.

you had your injectors cleaned then iirc you've twice fiddled with installing the injectors - am I right??

if I was local I'd totally be there to help you out as I could... even if that meant starting again at square #1, going to stock to eliminate any possible variables which might be causing you issues (hint: trifecta tunes ALWAYS come with your stock tune)

Is your exhaust touching anywhere under the car? I remember helping my buddy mike chase down knock on a new Camaro SS and the hacks that installed the SLP exhaust left it so close to the body it would bump constantly and cause false knock all over the place.
