hey guys, just to give you a headsup...tuning a tC isnt magic. It honestly shouldnt matter if the guy has tuned a tC before or not. If he is a modern day tuner, all ECU's are self correcting now a days and anyone with variable valve timing and OBD 2 setups will all be self correcting. Any ECU that cannot be reflashed will run into the same tuning issues. As long as the tuner is familiar with tuning cars from the last couple manufacturing years, he should be able to put down a sufficient tune for you...just keep that in mind

 

True. And my tuner HAS put down a sufficient tune. It just isn't as good as the tunes I've seen on guys who are familiar with the tC.

About the standalone, as long as your tuner is familiar with it, it will ALWAYS be better to go full stanndalone. You just have more controll over everything. And price wise, my AEM F/IC plus harness came to $700. Dezod has the AEM Stanndalone WITH harness and some other goodies for $2K. If I had known that at the time, I would have held off, saved another grand and got that instead.

 

chris says he was down with that guy coming here and tuning our cars. he said he would call you

 

OK. Sounds good. STill waiting to hear back from him.
I'll try to find his number and call him up, as he is not responding to my emails.

 

im at his house. he doesnt seem to have any messages or emails from you.

btw he wants to sell his kit for 3000 since its a collectors item now

 

I was refering to the tunre in colorado that I have not heard from.

 

hahaha holy crap Matt, i just noticed that your s/n is halo backwards and forwards.. lol. i'm retarded. ive been thinking it was just like... ola halo.. hahahahaha

 

google the name olaHalo. youll see that other than cars im playing xbox all the time.
dude todds gonna finally come back and be like wtf is up with my thread.

 

To bad you could never back that up.

 

I'm scared of clowns....


(hows that for ruining threads?)

 

You ruin your own threads....

 

Why?

 

Why do you ruin your own threads? IDK, only you can answer that one

 

i spent about 5 minutes looking for a thread where i posted that 1/4 mile time. the guy who ran a 16.7 1/4 mile with a stage zero is bcnu_702. he comes on that thread and confirms it and explains why.
it was pretty funny to see my NA tC beat a turbo tC at the track in front of everyone. you can ask any of the vegas posters. haha


oh god ive become rhythm...

 

You beat the driver. Big deal. That just tells me he needs to learn how to drive.

 

it had nothing to do with the driver. the stage zero tC was just running really bad. it still does run bad
olaH meant it as a joke when he said he beat him! theyre friends. olah helped install the kit

 

Why is he still driving it if its running bad? Does it need a tune? does it need injectors? details or post please.

 

dude whocares, who cares!

i sabatoged the car in order to win. so i could post it up and look cool in front of forpinks

 

guys...question for the masses....my tc keeps compensating for my tune on the emanage after the car is turned off for more than two hours...

here is how i solve the problem but its a pain...
i have to run the car on the stock ecu completely and then let it reconfigure its settings, then i can turn the car off, plug in my emanage, and the car will run off the emanage and runs great....but if i leave the car off for two hours, then it will reconfigure itself to compensate for the emanage....any ideas?

 

scion04xb? is that ira?

one, did you check to make sure the jumpers on your emanage are set correctly? did you get it new or used?
Sound like the problem is in your emanage.

Oh, and that stage 0 just has not gotten tuned yet or larget injectors cause we are still looking for a good tC tuner in Vegas. Mine did mine OK, but i still need it retuned.
We're talking about gettin tobi from colorado to come down, but he has not returned my emails, so I'm going to try and call him this week.
