Vortech Supercharger Without a Tune?

[Sniper2606]

Now im confused.

Doesnt the STG 1 that visconti sells already comes with a ECUtek cable + license and the map for the vortech tune?

What "zendesk" are we talking about here?

Zendesk: http://viscontiflash.zendesk.com/home To communicate with Visconti after you've bought a tune from him, you submit a ticket in that page.

I'm sure he has packages bundled with ECUtek cable and license and without.

Nobody ships their ECUTek kit with a tune file since they have to generate it for your specific car. So basically you get the kit, then you install the software and contact your tuner. They will ask for your dongle ID, VIN, and perhaps a ROM dump if need be. They then generate your first basemap file and send it to you.

Anyone buying Visconti's Vortech Kit can save some time by requesting the basemap file ahead of the install.

Thank you so much for all the responses and help.

Turns out I pulled injured my neck so the install will be delayed by a few days (which coincidentally gives me more time to receive that map.)

I won't run the car without it!

Ah, neck injuries are the worst. Hope you take care of it soon. When you finish installing the Vortech, you'll forget about your neck since your back will be sore from leaning into the low engine bay for extended periods of time

I see well this is what John said when i submit it my ticket.

You'll need to submit a ROM Dump before I can send you a tune file.

Pardon my ECUtek ignorance but how in the world can i do that?

Edit, nvm found the tutorial

idk, just me but i wouldn't really do that if i were you. i was lucky to have john repsond pretty quick, but it seems like he is pretty busy this weekend. i had a ticket submitted about some questions with my vortech kit and haven't heard anything. rich was supposed to call me back, but never did sooo i assume they are pretty busy. just be ready to do a rom dump.

Can I run my car without a tune after installing the supercharger and all the mods?

What will happen? Also, what kind of waiting time have people experienced for Visconti tunes?

No,
You have installed larger port injectors, a higher volume fuel pump, and likely a maf sensor with a wider range than stock.... In short, your fueling will be jacked up. Just for the sake of safety, don't do it. In most cases, when port only or port and DI are both active you will be over fueled. There is also a port injection trim table based on the map sensor, so once again... that will be wacked because of the map sensor change.

Not to mention the timing map, the stock maf limit of 200g/s (will not read any higher than that and fueling stops increasing with more flow), the stock load limit of 1.3 g/rev etc etc etc.

Still thinking about it... Just don't.

As mentioned these are the primary things that will not allow you to drive the car until you get the tune:

MAF relocated and possibly different pipe size
Upgraded MAP sensor (my car would not even start just swapping from OEM to 4 BAR MAP sensor)
Larger fuel injectors

Hopefully he got you your ROM this weekend.

I just installed my vortech no fuel pu,p without a tune and now I need a flatbed to the tuner bc my Will just stall out when I try and key the ignition... So don't even take the chance lol
