At the time of my repair, the car had long tubes, a PMAS and E70 tune. The dealer had no problem repairing it, but they had to have the stock tune in it to be able to retune the 10r80. So, I ran out all of the E70 in favor of 91 and removed the PMAS. Then, I loaded the stock tune and took it to...
Sorry, Dusten. I didn't get a notice of your question in my email. They repaired it per the SSM, which meant replacing the entire front support assembly. They cleaned it; changed filter; and, put new fluid in it. They also had to reprogram it. My car had a custom tune, so I had to revert...
I don't have pictures right now, but it fits great on my 2018. When I installed it, I had it positioned so as to be barely connected to the airbox. That way, it would be totally flush with the grill when I reinstalled the front fascia.
The pulley size is whatever came stock in the Stage-1 kit for the 2018+ cars. The only thing that I'm unhappy with is the poor street manners of the tunes that I've been getting. WOT is great, especially in Sport and Drag modes. Mine suffers from part throttle bucking and jerking as well as...
I have a '15-'17 black on my 2018 driver's side and it fits perfect. I bought a pair of red one's, but I decided I wanted to keep the car as stock looking as possible. I opened up all of the honeycomb slots in the driver's side corner of the grill to improve flow. I also "ported" the airbox...
Here it is. Surprised a lot of people, myself most of all. I was thinking that I would be lucky to get over 650. Headers, no cats, h-pipe resonator delete, stock mufflers, UPR dual catch can system, PBD tuned. The only other things that I did was to "port" the stock airbox; drill out all of...
My fast idle used to oscillate like that, but only by 50rpm or so. It also used to surge the same way going uphill in cruise control. Both issues were fixed in my latest tune update. My AFR was around 14 at fast idle, but it would oscillate by half a point or so in sync with the rpm.
I had my...
Yeah, mine has long tubes, no cats and no resonator with whatever the standard pulley size is for '18 and above Stage-1 kit. My boost peaks at 8.7lbs. I think with stock exhaust, my kit is supposed to be around 10lbs.
I, for one, would be interested in what your results are with the E30...
I think that I've finally got my tune sorted out by PBD. 12th revision seems to have nailed it. The weather is too bad today to try everything, but all part throttle positions at low and medium speeds are almost as smooth as when the car was new. No more bucking/jerking/surging. Idle is on...
Still working on the video for you, Mate. I have my digital dash dial for AFR, but I'm also going to add that read-out to my nGauge to compare.
As for trying "Snow/Wet" mode, it's a big improvement. The car has so much off-idle and low rpm torque that it has no problem with the earlier shift...
I'll get around to the video and post. I've tried "Snow/Wet", but I can't remember what happened. This has been a long, drawn out ordeal thus far. Lol. I'll let you know. Thanks...
I don't have a dedicated boost gauge, yet. I use the "stock" Edelbrock .015" nitrous jet, but the bucking doesn't change with the jet completely out either.
One other unusual behavior my setup exhibits though is an unsteady fast idle. The car will oscillate in rpm up and down in rhythm with...
Sorry that it took me so long to get back on this issue. I'm at 11 revisions and still have the part throttle bucking/surging. Very light throttle is acceptable and WOT is great. Any moderate to heavy part throttle is like riding a wild bull. Having the "pill" in or out has no effect...
Agree about the thin air effect on boost. A bigger factor than that, I think, is the better scavenging of my exhaust configuration. The combination of both is indeed significant. Interesting stuff...
Ok, at the risk of a lot of justifiable scrutiny, my '18 A10 Stage-1 kit made 691/589 on a 91 tune from Rob at PBD. 2nd pull. My only mods are long tubes, no cats or suitcase and some DIY mods to the stock airbox and inlet side of the grill, basically a true ram air result. Still have the...
