can you describe what you mean with the “throttle back off thing”? My car feels like it’s withholding power when I start from a complete stop until it gets to about 2k rpm. Wonder if that’s what you’re referring to.
you’re making a MAJOR modification to the engine that will nearly double its output. So it is a gamble. As long as you follow the instructions it is mostly set it and forget it. Most people have no problems. But not guaranteed.
This has been entertaining to read. Dont know Alex's work but he is a complete jackass on his channel and its just off-putting.
All I know if that Beefcake got me a killer on a whipple two months ago and a nice discount of suspension parts two months before that. I always go to them to price...
nope. My install involved a broken bolt I had to drill out. A vac leak I had to find using a homemade smoke machine.A tune I somehow didnt install correctly making the car drive like shit. A fuel pump that had a hose come off/ A pulley that some how lost two bolts after a drive. Harbor Freight...
So other than limiting power, I shouldn't be concerned with it damaging the car in other ways? Given that it is a whipple tune I figured they play it safe and this must be a way of doing it.
It...uhhh...depends. If ease into WOT, meaning I gradually get there, I stay right around .85. Which seems solid. However, If I "punch it", it descends to high 60's low 70's at peak RPM.
I recently installed a whipple stage 2 kit on my 21 M6 GT. I’m on the canned whipple tune.
Few questions.
1. If I wanted to get a custom tune on it, do I need to upload the stock tune or can a new tuner just overwrite the whipple tune?
2. Is there a way to load the stock tune back should a...
I actually finished the install last week but had a vac leak (because they sent a bolt too long for the throttle body and it didn’t seal it). Then apparently I didn’t load the tune correctly so I kept getting the same error codes.
Anyway, once I got that all sorted out it ran great. It is...
