Beefcake, I appreciate your take on the issue, but my opinion stands otherwise. My previous car, '09 VW Rabbit - one of its mods was a custom 3 inch catback - this catback was not mandrel bent, so the piping went from a straight 3 inch from the cat to a literal BEND in the piping around the...

p.s. sometimes when i TAP the pedal, I get NO response. ZERO response. Also sometimes when I TAP the pedal, the car just shakes a little, as if it's ABOUT to let out an exhaust noise and intake noise. These issues are the same as when I drove a 2009 rabbit with 3inch non-mandrel-bent...

**********UPDATE********** Sorry for the late update. I've been very busy with work, etc. I know I promised to provide you guys with a video today but unfortunately my cameraman is a no-show due to work obligations. 1. I do NOT have a catchcan. I made sure to scroll back to my previous...

Stoli, I said i have to eliminate all confounding variables befote diagnosing the issue as an intake/tune problem. No variables were eliminated, therefore i can not say the issue is caused by the intake/tune. There's nothing to argue here! And if you read my posts, I think you'd understand...

Wow @ all the responses. TY!! =D -Foghat, yes, I explained to Bama my situation. They told me to just "fill out to online form." The LAST person I spoke with...Justin? Andrew? I forget - he said he'll get to work RIGHT after we hang up the phone, and he did - received tune in email no more...

Need4Speed15, you're right. I first thought the intake/tune was the issue, but I have to eliminate all confounding variables, like the ones you mentioned. Spot-on steps. It's gonna be a busy Saturday. Or next. You all will be the first to hear updates as I go about taking steps to...

Foghat, Thank you for your input. I emailed BAMA back and forth, and even spoke with two different reps on the phone. I was just told to "fill out the form online" and order again (free tunes for life through americanmuscle) I'll be taking the car to the shop either this or next Saturday to...

******UPDATE / RESPONSE AS PROMISED****** Okay guys, I'm back. Again, I apologize for the confusion; I take 100% responsibility for this, like I should. After proof reading everything I posted here, and in my other thread, I would be confused too, if I were in your guys' shoes. Hopefully my...

Didn't mean to make it sound like I called out BAMA. This was not at all my intention, whatsoever. I praised bama's customer service in either this or my other thread. Serious apologies for the confusion, guys. Will post in even more detail around 7pm PST.

Poor throttle response came before*** Intake and tune - problem arose after springs/exhaust. The intake and tune did absolutely nothing to fix the problem. Do you guys think what I said in the post just above this is a sound idea to solving this issue?

This problem arose after JUST springs and exhaust. Don't think it's the vaccum line, imo. BUT... I want to test and eliminate all possibilities of this poor throttle response BEFORE committing extra money into ANOTHER tune. So I will definitely have a shop check the vaccum lines, tightness of...

Leaving an underground parking lot today... Holy are you serious? I almost nearly stalled. Had to give like 4000 RPM rev before accelerating. Then again, car would become shaky and all retarded. Emailed BAMA last week that the 2nd tune they gave me didn't do ANYTHING. Was very detailed...

Thank you, Beefcake. Will order in a couple of weeks. I can't wait. You've got my word!

BAMA tuned the car. Mods: 3inch piping exhaust, JLT cai, BAMA tune I've made 2 posts regarding my problems, both on front page of the forums. Noone seems to know the problem. My plan: take it to a LUND TUNING shop in Stanton, California in 2 Saturdays...

Would installing 3" piping exhaust result in poorer throttle response or power loss? Because that's what happened to me post-exhaust mod. Thought tune would fix, but NOPE.

SinisterGT2015, I have the EXACT same problem. Search for thread "Terrible throttle response after mods". It's VERY frustrating. I emailed BAMA back and forth, and copy/pasted those emails to the forums here to ask for help. mods: 3inch piping exhaust, jlt cai, bama tune When I rev the...

No headers. Computer is CAN1

Could the problem be...the design of my exhaust? Stainless works. 3inch diameter piping

JUST came back from resetting ECU. No fix. SF-2015 GT, I ordered the 91 performance and race. Both feel the same under 3k RPM. And even if the Race tune feels better than the performance tune, it still feels very much worse than bone stock. Driving in normal mode is a pain, too. I have to...

Ah, I see. I will have to wait until my next paycheck to request a Lund tune. Looking forward to this!
