Tim, glad to see you skewed the truth once again. Most* dyno tuning is tuning a car to run impressive numbers inside a room. You can get your track tunes but for Tim, let's all face it, he might go to the track maybe once or twice in his cars life it doesn't make sense for him to take this route. Yes it can pin down the O2s and other WOT specs but a few runs on the road can do the same thing. I live in the chicagoland area and I still am able to do the runs within certain areas so it can't be that its places to scan causeing an issue. Did any of you know Tim had a fueling issue before going to get his car dyno tuned? Tuning a car that isn't running right on the street or the dyno isn't going to get you far. All i said was to watch how lean they tune the car and Timmy here got stubborn like he always does (I think both him and Karl are related) and we both started to beat a dead horse. I'm not always right but I'm sure as hell not an idiot

The only difference between the dyno and the road is that fact that you aren't going to get pegged with a ticket for winding out the gears on the dyno.

I agree with most of what you are saying and yes, there is a bigger issue at hand here.

I'll be up at Tim's tomorrow afternoon to see what I can do for him. Only going to have about 4 hours before he needs to leave for work.

I severly doubt that this is tuning related. In fact, I'd put money on it being mechnical somewhere in the line, most likely electrical or fueling related.


Props for manning up and come to defend yourself though. wink

Tim, not mentioning kinda important issues is skewing the truth.

When he said that he wasn't getting much out of the injectors and it helped a little by changeing the fuel filter it almost directly leads me to believe it's a mechanical issue with pressure
