  1. Hey Jarrad can you send my stock actuator and all the other small parts that i need to put it back on my turbo, someone is gonna buy it. You can send it to 32675 Peardonville Rd, Abbotsford, B.C, V2T 1N2 ......................thx
  2. Hey Jarrad, its Troy im having trouble loading the e-tune map can you send them to me again dance08@hotmail.com
  3. hello,

     

    can you give me pricing and approx power levels or dyno charts for your two sti fitment new turbos? I am going fmic and have an avo pump, dw750 injectors and cobb turboback already on my spec.b. can you recommend a clutch for my six speed as I hear that I will need a replacement - I would like to stay as close as possible to the current clutch pedal effort. thanks

  4. Jarred, Had you seen this http://www.legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php?t=101412

     

    I wasn't sure if you tune for this or not... let me know if you would want me to data log.

     

    Thanks,

  5. I sent same message to website E-mail didn't know which was best to reach someone.

     

    I just received my stage 2 map and flashed it last night and was running the ral time map. On my way home from work I got a P0546 cel code (highway speed for about 10 minutes) high egt temp, I never got this code with Cobb's OTS maps. Need help please.

     

    Thanks,

  6. Nice post TDC, very informative, but I wanted to add a couple things to this. Long term fuel trims will actually change the open loop fueling. So some of the effects of the intake will diminish as the long term fueling adjusts. As TDC stated the larger MAF housing will increase timing. The ECU is primarily run off the load calculated from the MAF voltage. Anytime you decrease the MAF voltage you are making the ECU calculate the load incorrectly. Since as a general rule less timing is run for more load, you get more timing with the leaning out effect. This is what is so dangerous about running intakes on our cars. The entire architecture of the ECU requires the load to be properly calculated. Most intakes can be tuned for, but you really should only run an intake when required. The timing changes and fueling changes should be accomplished through proper tuning, not with a global alteration of the calculated air flow into the motor. Jarrad
  7. When you removed your friends AP from your car you likely got a new map on your ECU. The AP puts a stock map back on, not necessarily the same map your car had on it. The map they put back on may not have the stutter problem.
  8. Depending on the tune, either can happen. If the map is too aggressive you will loose power over time. If the map is not setup quite right it will learn to get stronger over a couple hundred miles. If the tune is perfect it will be strong after just a couple pulls. Jarrad
  9. For you the end user the biggest difference between the two maps is a base map takes much longer to load into the ECU than a real time map. With street tuner you can make changes to a real time map, and those changes instantly take effect. A base map requires the changes to be flashed, severl minutes time, into the ECU before they will take effect. Jarrad
  10. This is actually a bit of a touchy subject, since in some manners PDXTuning and Cobb are competitors. Both companies are well respected, and both are putting out what they believe to be the best balance of safety and performance. When choosing one over the other you should look at all the information available to you, and choose what you like the best. The simple truth is this: there is no absolute best base map. So long as both maps produce good results and longevity of the motor/car over a broad spectrum of cars, they are both good base maps. Judging that one car made more power than the other does not mean that it has a better base map, nor does it mean that it is less safe. Due to that fact PDXTuning would never compare the power output of our maps to anyone’s map and claim PDXTuning’s map was better. I hope this helps people understand a bit, Jarrad
  11. We are doing AP's with custom maps. They will be the same basic map as our EcuTek map. The AP and the EcuTek are two different approaches to accomplish the same thing, both load new ROM data into your stock ECU. Right now we are working on converting our maps, which takes a bit of time. Once we have a complete selection we will make a more public announcement. For a LGT or STi the price will be the same as an EcuTek reflash, $799 for the AP and our map. Jarrad
