Motoring the engine is how we do it on the OE side. We don’t use DynoJets. The dyno is turning the engine, not the other way around. This allows me to dial up a speed, open the throttle independent of engine speed and pull a specific mass of air to map each point. It can be done with HP Tuners and the Whipple calibration if you have the proper dyno. These guys that people label as Tuners do not.

Well sir, be ready for a visit from me to get the perfct tune if I can't get this current tune sorted out :thumbsup:

My Lund tune has been great. Car drives stock except for twice the HP. In fact my wife drives it to work most days and has yet to report any hiccups in drive ability.

Well driveability is perfect right now but I'm having startup/ idle issues now. Mostly when I turn the A/C on. 2 revisions later and still doing it ..idle surge with A/C on.

Are you seeing that when the car is warm or just on cold start?

I get just a touch of roughness for 3 seconds or so on cold start. Nothing I've bothered to think about.

Once the car is warmed up it will happen always once the A/C is on. Sometimes it will level out for a few seconds then happen again. Soon as the A/C is off it will go away and idle will be back to perfect. There is some random times though when the car is warmed up that it will happen but will usually correct itself right away. It sucks :(

Is this with Lund or are you still on the Whipple tune?

Platinum_5.0 · Jun 20, 2018

It isn't Lund but it's with another well know Tuner. He is still trying to figure it out so he hasn't giving up on me yet at least...lol

why dont people wan to mention the name of a tuner if there is an issue. Is everyone worried about being sued?
