What is the ride like? I got one today and it seems funny. I dont know if its the tires or what but it gets loud from 3500 and above then flys through the gear. Turbo noob please advise.

 

contact dodaddy he has the greddy turbo and i think the emanage blue.

 

wastegate opening?

 

I dont know how can I check?

 

oh jesus! take it to a shop. read up on the internet about turbos and how they work. can i ask how old you are?

 

its the wastegate opening, its supposed to happen, what the heck did u get turbo'd for if u dont know anything about it lol

 

and how about you dont post another thread....use the one you already have up.....its times like this i wish i was a mod

 

I bought the car like this. Nothing like helping out a new guy with a little info. If I wanted to hear an _______ talk I would fart.

 

I have the greddy kit with emangae ulimate.

I think you need to be a little more specific on the sound. Is it like a sucking sound? If so, that's just the turbo spooling up.

 

is this serious?

 

did alot of reading and I think im all set the only thing going on here is the previous owner had the boost to high for one and for two I dident understand turbo enough. What going on is the car will not get traction until 4th gear and I thought something else was going on. The only issue I have is at idle the car gous from 500-1000 rpms over and over any ideas on this?

 

sounds like you are running rich... thats what happen to my car when i was rich at idle, the car would sputter from 500-1000 rmp

 

This can be fixed in the emanage correct? Can you give me any insite on how to correct it? What should the afr be given the application? Can I see the afr in the emanage software? I added the car specs the best I could to my profile.

 

sounds like you bought a pretty good setup. unfortunately, you won't be able to fix this emanage tune issue. you need someone familiar with the software. Tunes from performance shops usually go for about 500 dollars.

 

I dont have any problem taking the car to a shop (if I could just find one) but I really would like to learn how to do this myself and completely understand the process. Can anyone provide some good resources to learn how to do this tuning with the emanage?

 

tc1003, how many hours are you willing to drive for a tune? Ptuning is about 7 hours away from warwick.

 

Truthfully I would rather learn how to do it. Do you know of any place I can learn how to do the tune using the emanage? I am very good with computers and a quick learner when it comes to something I have interest in. If I had to drive I wouldent want to go more than an hour or two. Im the type of person that will take apart stuff just to see how it works then put it back together. I had one of these tcs 2 years ago unboosted and liked the car. Now I have this one and its a whole new world for the TC. I can see myself as capable of tunning a turbo TC in the near future. I guess what I need to know is from someone who tunes now. What I need to know from them is where do I get started to learn how to do this. If someone asked me how to becoma a system administrator I would tell them to become best friends with cisco and microsoft and the rest will fall into place. This is the same type of thing I am looking for just a point in the right direction from someone who knows tunning to get me started.

 

I did a lot of reading, and I think I'm all set. The only thing that is going on here is that one; the previous owner had the boost too high, and two; I didn't understand turbo applications enough. What is happening is the car will not get traction until 4th gear and I thought that something was going wrong. The only issue that I have is when the car is idling, it jumps from 500-1000RPM continuously.

First of all welcome to the forum. Second, learn some basic grammatical skills my friend, is this seriously what they teach you in school today?

Dear god ... please tell me that you have a learning disability, if not, I am worried for the future of humanity.

 

1 - English is not my strong point and I truthfully don’t care to get any better at it. 2 - Didn’t you ever listen when mom told you if you don’t have anything good to say then don’t say anything at all? 3- If you can’t contribute constructively to the question being presented why don’t you go play in traffic with a blind fold this way someone with something important to say can post. “The future of America” spoken like a true employee. Let me give you a little advice you don’t need to be grammatically correct in the real world you only need to know who to hire to be grammatically correct on your behalf. So sorry for my lack of proper grammar I was not aware I was being graded. How am I doing teach?

 

tc1003, don't mind him. I think what he is trying to say is that it is hard to understand when you don't write in proper grammar online. The easier it is to read on our side, it makes us more likely to understand your problem and help you through it.

Anyways, if you want to learn how to tune the ultimate, I believe rhythmnsmoke can lead you in the right direction to where to read up on it. Give him a PM.
