*any Close By Experienced Hptuners*
i had gotten a really good tune a few months ago with some other cobalts on here from Matt over at tune time...
i have my own hptuners, i've been seeing some knock in my tune when i tried to check some logs on the new tune...
are there any guys around my area that knows the hptuner software inside and out and can assist me with tweaking my tune on the street? i have a afr guage, i have the software already and don't need to purchase credits...i would greatly appreciate anyon that could help me 1st hand with the street tuning...i would also compensate for the time taking out your day to assist...
thanks ahead of time...
i just don't know the software or tuning process myself to try and mess with it...don't want my car to blow up...lol

^^honestly, i'm looking for someone who can actually get in my car with the hptuners and do the logs with me and help get out the knock that i'm seeing...i'm running a little rich too, not too bad...but i want to get my current tune looked at on the road by someone who knows what they're doing/looking for...i'm not even a newb at hpt, lol...i won't dare to try and change anything myself lol...
it was tuned on a mustang dyno, BIG DIFFERENCE from the tune i had originally had in there from someone else (done completely wrong too)...
like i said, seeing some knock and i know that a street tune is much different than a dyno tune done with only 3rd gear...

^^i know, but if someone REALLY KNOWS what they're doing and are only a state away, i'd make the trip out there myself to get this done...that's how serious i am with getting this baby street tuned...i wake up already everyday at 4am, so if i had to get up early to start a few hours worth of a trip, i can do it...that's not an issue for me, finding some help is the issue, lol...
it runs awesome, but i think it can run a little bit better cause of the knock i saw in it...

first things first, you say you got a "real good tune" from this matt fellow, yet your seeing knock. if its actual knock caused by improper tune, and not excess load, ect then its not a good tune. at all.
none the less, go to the HPT forums and post your data logs,myself along with many of us are on there, it'll be easy to down load the log and see whats going on.

when i ran it to see the tune itself on the road, i was getting a knock in 3rd at the same point each time...my boy Dom has my hptuner cable so i couldn't get to running it again and posting up the logs...but we're meeting up soon again to re-do some logs on both of our cars...
i'd take it back to this guy Matt again, but he only dyno tunes, no road tuning...plus he said he's never seen any knock in any of his tunes...so i'd like to get it looked at by someone who knows all this stuff and on the road...that's all...
oh and since i got the wideband installed, i keep seeing 10/9 at full throttle...i thought it should be around 11/4-11/8 or so...
awesome man! thanks...i know there's a meet being planned on the rlforums for a sonic meet on april 11th, not sure if it's going around on here...but i'm going to pm you my # and we'll see what's up...
thanks again

well, i had a Ron9919 tune on it 1st...but when he attempted to tune it for meth, i'm lucky my car didn't explode lol...so after Matt from tune time removed all that info and started it off from scratch again, my car was running really awesome compared to my previous tune...

so you have KR and an overly rich AFR, sounds exactly like a dyno tune that was never tested on the street. thus, it'll be easy to sort out.
none the less when you get your cable back, let us know, post the longs on the HPT boards, and go from there.

ill be at the dave and busters meet on april 25th, Rons car was pretty fast when he had it I saw it at a few meets
I've saw a few cars with a knock issue in 3rd, in the situation I was working on it was too lean, but being to rich can cause it too

as soon as i get up with Dom, i'll start making logs, you make it sound easy to fix but i have no idea how to mess with the tuning, lol...hence, why i'm looking for some help 1 on 1 with it...lol
i'm at like, 23-25 degrees or so??? when the guy pulled up the tune, he was so shocked at it that he saved it to show his friends...lol plus i got a lot more power and all from this current tune...
with rons, i was putting down 248whp-237wtq on a dyno jet without meth...currently putting down 266-248 on a mustang dyno
