Was wondering if anyone here does remote tuning. Seems like if I give someone the specs of my car they should be able to give me a decent base tune. I’m willing to pay if someone knows what there doing. I altered the tune I had on my car because it seemed wonky but now I’m scared to get into...

But 9.2 , that must have been like 800hp?!? I would be happy with 4-500

How much horsepower can an automatic 2g transmission handle ?

Thanks. Installing a new negative cable and ground cause mine looks like shit. I’ll check the draw when I get everything hooked back up

My battery keeps draining to all the way down to 1-2 volts. This is the second battery I’ve ruined like this. I’ve never seen the battery at say 10,9,8 volts , just 11-12 or 1-2… does this sound like a short? Doesn’t happen all the time so I’m wondering if something’s shorting when it rains? I...

Ok thought I tried this before but I guess the ecu wasn’t on auto save. Raised target idle to 1100 rpm and she started and held idol just fine! But I also installed the wideband that’s in between my front and rear o2 sensor but it’s not giving me a reading on my air fuel ratio gauge that I have...

That’s exactly what I need!

Yea I’ll probably have to buy a welder but went the cheap and lazy route. I’ll keep an eye on it and most likely at least put some spot welds on it soon

thanks! i think thats most likely the culprit. i probably just noticed this issue less because it was warmer out.been waiting for the rain to stop to jb weld in this wideband bung that i just drilled a whole for. its 1000 degree heat resistant jb weld so i think it probably wont fly out on...

Going to look into the throttle body being blocked off. Would this cause the car to not idol? It’s just confusing me because the only thing that’s really changed besides the built turbo is the fact that on of the o2 sensors in the front was uninstalled. It looks like by ur description that I...

And my car actually currently has two dangling un Installed but plugged in 02 sensors . One hanging in the rear, one hanging in the front, and then the one that’s actually installed in the front , so just wanted to clarify the dangling o2 censor in the back is not what I’m referring to when I...

My latest theory is that the car previously had some mechanical or ecu issue that won’t allow it to idle in open loop. This would explain why previously I needed to rev the car for about 5ish seconds before it would hold idol. When I put an exhaust in my down pipe I had two 02( or wide band)...

and this one i set some more tables and settings to stock. didnt seem to hurt or help much by the sound of things, but again im not able to deduce from the log if they helped or hurt?

i started this one without clicking the non 95-96 style cam angle sensor setting, then engaged the non 95-96 style cam angle sensor , then disengaged the setting, but i couldnt tell a difference from the feel of the car and wasnt able to deduce from the live log witch way worked better?

set injectors to 1200cc. seemed to end the black smoke and misfiring problems, must have been causing it to run rich. but it still wont hold idle?

Thanks man. Let me try to figure some of that out. I had two 02 sensors plugged into my straight pipe originally, but only have one in know and I’m not exactly sure witch ones o2 and witch ones wide band and witch one the ecu is actually reading. I’ll try to get some of that figured out. Thanks...

just got it started again but it wouldnt stay running and was running really rough, pretty sure my turbo sounded like it was destroyed to. Does this log show any clues to whats wrong with it?

Thanks! 🙏

Spark plug purchase questionsIdeal Ohms resistance- gap size - ignition style- bore depth ?I was thinking of going with a high ignitability sprak plug, anyone familiar with how they perform in a modified 2g dsm?

Are bigger turbo 4g63t’s with big injectors known for fouling plugs and flooding engines easily? Does anyone know an ideal plug for my car or should I just go with oem? Threads here said oem was the way to go but they were pretty old, didn’t know if there was a knew type out that was better for...

I’m going to try to buy new plugs. It started first try and ran by itself (with out throttling) with fresh gas, the old stuff looked real bad, so it can’t be random that must have been apart of the problem. And I’m hoping it’s just that fact that my spark plug cleaning job wasn’t ideal but was...

It just ran last night. I’m not sure if everything’s perfect with it but I don’t see how bad timing would make it run one day then not the next

anddd now it wont start again :banghead::oops::notgood:

Forgot to mention what the fix was (even though I probably have some more things to fix to get her running perfect). It had bad gas!Drained the tank by disconnecting the line that goes from the fuel rail to my Fuel Lab pressure regulator and activated the fuel pump with the ECU. Also cleaned...

SHES RUNNING!!!... Running poorly but kept idle all by her self. Turned it off because it sounded kinda rough and was puffing a bunch of white smoke. (maybe head gasket or maybe that's just how a catless rough idle looks in the winter?)Here the start up log!I'll try to get some more logs of...

not sure how to add additional information like battery volatge?

i compared a new log i made with my ecu setting set back to original. coolant temp looks decent in this one. ( its 34 degrees here log has temps at 20). but when i compare my chart with one provided to me here my air flow looks high for the rpm? even with my foot not on the petal. i see throttle...

thanks

I was advised to switch my cam angle sensor type in the ECU and didn't think to much about it but now I'm thinking how could this be correct if the car was running and driving prior to switching the sensor in the ECU?Could I have damaged the valves when I switch the cam ecu setting to "non...

Having same issue as well, and found a few similar threads but all were unresolved

Well the mechanics that said they would look at it quoted me 600 dollars just for the diagnosis let alone the actual fix. So looks like I’m back to doing it myself. Rather lite the car on fire then pay some one 600 dollars to look at it.I’ve been doing a little more research and noticed my...

I tried locking the coolant temp, And then tried locking in hot start . Neither worked

Base fuel pressure is at 42 , was at 50 but i adjusted it todayYea i was mistaken thanks. Behive was on the listing thought they were the intake cam because they were listed right before the kelford 272 exhaust cams . But guessing the intake cam is stockI really think it’s something to do...

That’s what i hoped but it’s like 40 degrees today and still nothing. And i cleaned the plugs today

Who knows a good dsm mechanic in the northeast? Having starting issues and i am running out of things that I can think of to check. So far all the mechanics I’ve called won’t touch it

I think this is the issue. Never had starting troubles like this before the oil pressure loss incident. Checked everything else, even tried locking the coolant temps and air temp, don’t know.Anyone know a DSM mechanic in the northeast? I’m like 40 plus hours in and still can’t get this thing...

My oil filter didn't pop off completely so hoping it still had some pressure but was leaking enough to dump all the oil in the about a minute span that i had it running. but thanks ill check that out tomorrow.I’m not sure what my intake cam size is but supposedly it’s a Behive? The exhaust cam...

damnit … that’s would have been a easy fix, thought I saw it was lockable in the ecu lol

Thanks. It was cold out so the 3c is probably accurate, but the minus 9c must be off. I’ll see if I can lock the coolant temp in the ecu and give it a try

I think I fixed a few errors I had in the ECU settings, but I have a feeling your suggestion to crack the throttle open might be related to the issue. In the past when it did start it wanted to be throttled a little, but when I start it now and give it gas it won't climb in RPM and just dies on...

new log with with corrected ecu adjustments and starting attempts. first one she started and after that mostly just got some cranksis the timing supposed to be jumping all around like that?

Thanks! I’ll get on that

Thanks 🙏 Just programmed the new ecu configurations to the car. Didn’t get it to start but the starter sounded weak so giving it a charge and trying it again soon. I can hear that the fans not always running anymore when the key is in the power on position so at least I know the ecu took the...

Got everything switch up besides the ECU inputs, still working on that. I know my back O2 sensor isn't connected to the exhaust and is just hanging back there so I assume that's why its locked?Have to get the car jacked up to double check but I think I have a wide band and stock O2 sensor for...

thanks!!! starting to work on getting all fixed now.that right up was exceptional!

Stock manifold cut with new header pipes welded on

looks like the injectors are set to 900cc on the new log. should i just switch them to 1200cc and try to start the car?

new log#2

new log #1
