This 4 door must be fast now....
 
I had my first run in with a 2015ish STI....
from a light we both rolled out then he hit it. I pulled 2nd and matted it.... his back bumper got maybe 3 feet in front of my front bumper. Went by him squealing in 2nd. Hit 3rd and just pulled cars and cars on him... I hope he got out of it-- if not-- it was a whoopin'. Very happy with term2's tune.
PS... I am averaging 28.2mpg and it is still going up!
We were in Mexico.

So this was a dream?

Your DIC is not accurate anymore.

nickate 05-06-2016 08:36 PM

No. Not a dream. Lol. Just want to disclose it was in Mexico.
I will do a fill/miles test... I was reeeeeally happy to post up that mpg.
Now the exhaust even sounds kinda like it has a flap in it. When the boost hits it takes on a different tone and gets loud...
This car really rips for a DD. Very happy with the fact that the tires don't go up in smoke in 3rd gear like my last neon. Much more composed...

How much does term charge for tuning?

PM him and I'm sure he can answer you better than I can.
I paid him last fall but was not ready until recently.

Km043 also does excellent tunes.

tomj77 05-10-2016 03:42 PM

Everyone on the forum live in Mexico? Lol

The new sti's are sadly not that fast. My buddy has one, went FBO/equal length headers and Dyno tuned on E and I still walk him

So will it be harder to race in Mexico if Trump wins and builds his wall? :lol:

tomj77 05-16-2016 07:57 PM

He will win and they should make the wall wide enough to race on it

Why do you say that?
It is within .5mpg ......

I don't know why it wouldn't be. I thought that was only true if you did anything to the fuel system; i.e. upgraded fuel pump, larger injectors. but I know those type of mods are not so prevalent for lnfs

blueLNFftw 05-31-2016 09:19 AM

It is programmed for certain fuel flow and pressure.
Tuning the car changes those and makes it inaccurate.

southal cobalt 05-31-2016 11:32 AM

I though dic was based on pulsewidth

you can change fuel pump pressure with hpt on the lnf?

im only asking because I have only tuned my lsj. never really looked at the tables on an lnf

CudaJoe 06-01-2016 01:29 PM

I checked my DIC and it was pretty accurate to what I calculate at the pump.

BYT tuned
