problem with tune or something else?

hardhitter · June 11th, 2008, 07:02 PM

I'll be driving along and the a/f randomly goes lean (18-20) for like a second or 2 and the car jerks slowing down and then it's fine again. Does this sound like a tune problem or is it the way I set up the supercharger?

Drgnracin72 · June 11th, 2008, 07:04 PM

def a tune problem who tuned it and do you have a dyno graph?

Drgnracin72 · June 11th, 2008, 07:05 PM

oh ic, you got one of those internet email tunes. well theres your problem. do it right and go get a custom tune on a dyno

hardhitter · June 11th, 2008, 07:26 PM

What's wrong with email tunes? I still datalog and everything.

futureMACH1racer · June 11th, 2008, 07:28 PM

Because every car is different and they react differently. That tune is obviously ot suited to your cars specific needs.

hardhitter · June 11th, 2008, 07:29 PM

It's a custom tune for my car

BakerFX4 · June 11th, 2008, 07:37 PM

awww hell!!! Mine does the same thing (runs lean for a sec or 2 randomly). I was thinking maybe my blowoff valve was hangin up or sumthin. But mine is only the base tune. When i shift, the thing about dies and i have to catch it with more gas before it dies. Anyway mine is an email tune from joe too. But it is my base tune to just get the car running. I sent him a datalog sunday and im waiting on my tune after the datalog. But yeah i am getting kinda nervous about the email tune thing. we will see how it goes.

hardhitter · June 11th, 2008, 07:44 PM

Yeah mine does the same thing sometimes if i take too long to shift the rpms drop way down and it bangs when i let the clutch out. It's so much worse to drive than when it wasn't supercharged.

RyanGT · June 11th, 2008, 07:50 PM

datalog the problem and send it to joe, he will fix it.

And baker yours is only a base tune so you can datalog and go... i would expect you to have issues.

BakerFX4 · June 11th, 2008, 07:54 PM

Yeah im not complaining cause i know its a base tune and all. But yeah it bangs when i shift like it was about to die or sumthin. haha. EXACTLY bro! It died on me today going down the road. being a standard i just cranked it back up and kept on going. (had to play it off)

hardhitter · June 11th, 2008, 07:56 PM

I already sent like 20 datalogs to Joe and he doesn't reply anymore.

ChrisJ · June 11th, 2008, 07:56 PM

Get the car up on a dyno and check it out...

hardhitter · June 11th, 2008, 07:57 PM

Yeah it's dangerous when my car shuts off going around a corner because the brakes go to shit and I can't steer either.

hardhitter · June 11th, 2008, 07:58 PM

I originally had it dyno tuned and there were some problems so I went with Joe to get a totally different tune because the dyno is so far away.

BakerFX4 · June 11th, 2008, 08:00 PM

yeah i cant get him to reply either. i sent my last datalog sunday and sent it again this morning and numerous emails and NOTHING!

Safi · June 11th, 2008, 08:04 PM

You have to give him some time...I'm sure he is busy

BakerFX4 · June 11th, 2008, 08:07 PM

im givin time and being patient and all... it just seems like before the whole tuning process started with me, he answered every question and replied so quickly and now nothin. Im not mad or anything but just wanna know whats up.

hardhitter · June 11th, 2008, 08:12 PM

Yeah I think it's been like 3 weeks since he last replied.

RyanGT · June 11th, 2008, 08:12 PM

He hasnt replied to me either. Probably just busy and hasnt had a chance yet. Give him a call?

hardhitter · June 11th, 2008, 08:16 PM

I've been trying to get mine tuned right for over 3 months now.. I almost wish I hadn't supercharged it.
