yea well....now there is not a cobalt or redline in NC....but there could have been

 

and you probably heard that from brads cause his is the fastest in the world lol with intake and exhaust

meaning to 06slowbaltsc lol

 

hahah howd u know it was me lol. but if he wud use his money for his car instead of dumb **** it would be faster. and if you used your money for you car instead of...heres the list lol movies ice cream ashley rc car headlights subs hids food xbox games parts you already have then sold and new parts lol jk collin ahahah

 

theres nothing else to do to mine not putting a new turbo i have all dejon ic pipe with maf relocation and synapse bov 3 inchturbo back no cats no muffler with cut out, dejon intake gauge pod with gauges, carbon spoiler getting carbon hood here shortly. custom made headlight with the audi r8 led going down the side for blinkers

 

I didn't see anything about a tune? If not you wasted money and still make 260!

 

rims. suspension lol nos hahah do internals haha. bigger front mount...thats bout it lol

naa he is tuned lol he forgot that

 

Who tuned him... or did chump out and go Trifecta?

 

Probably Trifecta.....hahaha

 

That would be my guess.... I didn't tune him thats for sure! LOL

Hell I shops around here asking me to tune these cars for them now... it's great (or atleast asking me questions about them)

 

trifecta dealer since like well 2007 and thats because after all things he has done quit amazing actually. im on 26psi (holding). also he hass my fan running at idle to help air pass over no matter the temp during the summer never gets hotter than 190. he is in the process of making a launch control like a n2mb 2 step where it will hold 5 psi at what ever rpm you choose. i no my self couldnt do that with hp tuners

oh yea how could i of ran a maf relocation without a tune had to do that the first day for a datalog car wouldnt hardly stay cranked much less drive.

 

what wrong w. trifecta?

 

weaksauce compared to a blueberry, but a switchable blueberry tune would be uber 1337 hax

 

not saying whos better than who but what is he using hp tuners or something else and what can he do that vince does?

 

Anyone ready for our potential snow Friday/Saturday?

 

What can I do that he can't.... make it reliable.

All vince has done is TRICKED your PCM into doing things that it shouldn't do. IE: more boost (its out of it's efficiency range at 23psi) so all your doing is creating excess heat.

So you have your fans on.... cool I never go over 190 anyway... it's called replacing some of your standard fluid with distilled water and water wetter and I have a better cooling system anyway.

I use HPTuners, have been using it since the better part of 2006.

Vince tricks the car into making more fuel pressure... but doesn't use it... Tunes the cars stupid rich, causing excess RICH knock, and premature piston failure..

Check the blown #1 thread..... PRETTY much every car there is Trifecta. Why, because they are stupid rich, or running around blowing super heated air at pressure into the cylinders.

Both of which are just as bad. I make reliable, STOUT power.

Now I think what Vince has done is great, but is going about it in the wrong way. He asked me about being a beta tester for the infiniboost and infinifuel stuff about 5 months ago... but me and another friend told him NO.

WHY, well for 2 reasons, especially once I figured out he was just tricking the PCM into doing things, I would much rather have it done as a purpse... Like commanding 2300psi instead of making the computer think it's only getting 800psi so it gets the 2300 by adding extra pressure. Tricking the MAP sensors by "telling them" your only at 6psi so it'll add the extra PSI to make the 30psi or whatever.

But to each their own.... as soon as HPT opens up the rest of the parameters, people will be saying Trifecta-who?

 

yea i got you i tell him to lean my some because i have a air fuel w its like 12.9 i believe but im not one of thos guys just because i have trifecta its the best you no i just been using him forever thats why he good treated me wheel with all the crap i keep changing, we all need to meet up one day like to check your car and tune out

 

Well if you have an AFR of 12.9 means that it's .88 Lambda, meaning that max torque is created between .84 and .92 lambda....at least he got that part decently right....but if it's across the entire RPM band, then it's not right....it should be hitting that point only at a certain RPM range when boost and airflow are at the max and then tapering off with that...other than that, if you are going down the highway just cruising, if it was tuned right, then you should be at 14.7-14.8 at normal driving conditions

however what I am gathering from what Matt is saying is that instead of vince writing the tables, he is just adjusting voltage values to the sensors so the ECU is actually seeing lower than what it supposed to....there was a common mod on the J-Body cars where putting the right resistor in the IAT sensor tricked to the computer into seeing a lower air temperature therefore making the car run a bit richer...also giving you that "peak torque" although nobody ever dynoed that resistor...that mod is the "typical speed chip" you see on ebay....another mod that is floating around the VW community is the "clamping the MAP" mod which involves using a zener diode to make the MAP Sensor see a lower manifold pressure therefore upping the boost pressure....

so basically Vince is taking the ideals of these physical mods and putting them in a logical form in the ECU...in which case....I can take VAG-COM the VW diagnostic software and do that and call it "tuning"....


Matt, that is a sweet Sig block hahaha

 

.88 lambda is a good spot... for once I think you are the first one to be leaner than a 11.7s.

 

lol yeahh but how much does he cost. lol

 

yea thats cool so like i was saying you guystryin to get a small meet up

 

ill meet up collin hahahah

 

i went to rocky point last weekend now i prolly got to go towards raleigh this next weekend west virginia this weekend in this storm lol

 

Not really.. I JUST got my SS/SC last night. =\

 

What do I cost.... it depends! But there isn't a more powerful T/C in NC that I know of... and I have a slipping clutch

 

sux dont it
