Partial Stall... the only OBD2 data that would be affected would be MAF air flow rate... and the changes will be insignificant to what anything you might want to do with those values. All other PID's are unaffected.

Cheers

The only thing I noticed was I'd have a few rows of data for the same RPM, but it would show .1 sec for each in my data logs. Not sure if it's the unichip interfering or my settings with the phone/bluetooth. I bought a cheap USB plug in port but could never get the driver to work on Win8.

Jack, would an aftermarket axle back benefit from running with cat included in a tune?

Thank you

Nope an axleback does not need a tune.

Waiting on Aem tune with use of aem maf peice. Also will this tune come in a header and complete exhaust tune. Does anyone know where this can be tuned out at and fine tuned on a dyno in or around south jersey?

Jack mentioned it should have been done yesterday so I'm hoping they can get the map family uploaded today. I'm installing a header this weekend. The map families come with header/exhaust options as well. I'm not sure if there's an authorized Unichip tuner in South Jersey. You might want to check their website. Otherwise, the tune should run pretty good.

Can anyone recommend a Unichip tuner (with dyno) within a couple hours of Louisville, KY? Like the Cincy, Indy, Nashville area?

Appreciate it.

That's where I've run into issues. I'm contemplating selling mine and buying ECUtek, just because I cannot find someone local that can tune with it. I had one guy working on it before, but he's given up and there's no shops around here that will tune it.

you would be surprised how many tuners are out there. See if you can find anyone through here. If not remember that a lot of automotive engineers (the educated ones) are capable of tuning a car using most tuning solutions. If you have a favorite shop thats local why not ask them if they are up for tuning using the unichip?

I got a hold of the AEM map (Fuel ~, Timing ~), I anticipate the map family will be uploaded today to the shared site. I'm anxious to try the Fuel ~ Timing +.

WOW! The right map made a world of difference. The Injen map I was running definitely showed improvement over stock, but now that I'm on the right map it makes me very happy that I went with the Unichip. It pulls much harder and smoother. It feels more direct and torquey. I instantly realized the intake was making more noise...two thumbs up, this car is really a blast to me again.

I'm excited to see how things work when I get the FA20Club header in and on. Stay tuned...

AEM maps

As Swift996 said, the AEM map family is finished and will be posted shortly... my IT guy called in sick this morning so it probably won't be until tomorrow.

Swift996 - I'll email you that map shortly.

Cheers
