Has anyone had a strong solid tune on 91oct ?
 

I have used multiple tunes and sent prob 25 logs for 91 oct tunes , I cannon seem to get even near the same quality of power and smoothness as I get on 94, if I mix a very small bit of race gas in my 91 the tune runs Awsome , they are stage 2 tunes for engine back catless exhaust and drop in , also has anyone ever had good service from Visconti ?

Known fact, whatever you were trying to do in the other thread had already been proven. Pretty simple really.

Not many, and even then, there are plenty of people that are better than him at tuning.

I've been having good luck with Toni from fa20club , who do you recommend ?

God no, stay the fuck away from FA20Club.

@jamesm would be your best bet if you are not willing to learn it yourself.

Really ? His tune runs pre good , ok I'll give him a shout thanks bud

I don't know where you've been for the last year, FA20club/toni is banned for very good reasons.

Not sure if troll or just never been in the tech topics before...

That I know , that if tunes were bad but IMHO if should be done live by the tune with a wideband and dyno , I didn't know his NA tunes were bad ? You think I can blow an engine ? My Visconti tune is worse

I spoke to some guys and they said tony was good , so I have him a try , even dyno tuned a d logged his 94 tune made 185, his 91 tune is good but knocks on tip in and he is still working on my 97, Visconti is making me kick rocks I literally emailed ecutek and instantly he sent me my tune , ecutek has really good customer service

Is anyone has a problem with a ecutek tuner , email ecutek and belive me your tuner will get his shit together , Visconti refused to refund me after making me wait 4 days for my tune , I emailed ecutek and 5 min later it a email from Visconti then got my tune ,he was very responsive after that , now he hasent responded for 2 days prick

You need to stop doing things that make little to no sense since it is just wasting time and money.

I was told to go with Toni by multiple ppl

You can always check out our tunes.

Tip in knock is fairly common on the FA20. I haven't read of anyone completely eliminating it yet. @nelsmar @jamesm @DeliciousTuning and @Circuit Motorsports are the people on here I would talk to if you are staying with Ecutek. You could try to upload Shiv's OTS tune into the user tune part of Ecutek but I haven't looked into how that works, I just know it is possible. Although you would lose your racerom features unless you pay extra to have them user configurable.

Tip in knock is completely gone on all our tunes. We needed EcuTeK RaceROM in order to accomplish this though.

Tip in knock is a thing of the past in our tunes as well. And it is accomplished using EcuTek RaceRom custom mapping.

Ill check and see how it goes with visconti, i just want to be able to rest assure that my car is not only performing well but also safely , i did a number of custom maps myself which ran incredibly smooth actually, but i just dont trust that it is the best for my car, as in everything theres no replacement for experience. and that i do not have tuning cars like ours. been out of the tuning game for about 8 years just tuned my sleds quads and all my freinds toys. used to be into it back in the omg thats a rsx days :P

i will definetly keep you guys in mind tho, if ever my service doesnt get better, which i doubt it will, toni was good for service but not visconti

I can for 100% sure vouch for @DeliciousTuning Roms being free from tip in knock. They are extremely smooth as well.

customer service ? thats just as important to me as the tune.

He just hired a customer service "guy" @sales@delicioustuning.com that has been very good at responding to most of my PM's in a timely fashion. Much faster than most correspondence with FA20club. When I had the e-tune done through Bill he stayed up to approxiametely 11 at night to get me running, then the dyno session went till 10 at night. That's pretty good customer service to me. He also has a great amount of knowledge with ECUTEK check out his expierence on his website he's tuned some high profile stuff.

thanks bud ill keep that in mind :)

Problem is you picked the two worst reputation tuners known across the boards to begin with. If you had before hand asked openly here who can provide you the best E tunes known you would have saved a ton of cash and time. That said while I know you said you're giving Visconti a chance, truth to be told that's more waisted time based on numerous accounts given here time and time again. Go with the (proven) names and proven vendor/tuners that have been mentioned here for sure.

what kind of gas do you put in your car ?

91,93,94 are all available where I live. 91 most often as it is certainly "most common".

yah im sold on the vpower 91, it seems to be consistant and the DI crickets are wall less noticiable that compared to chevron 94 which is great gas when its good, but when i get a bad tank it knocks and bogs more than the vpower, pretty sad. i run vp octanium to bring the octane up which works very well but man shes got a stench to her, smells pretty strong. i also run 1/400 shell ashless 2stroke oil in my gas and i have completely killed the crickets car is very silent and does not smoke at all, oil stays very nice doesnt seem to contaminate it. o2 sensor i check every week and nice beige color no deposits. been 2 tanks of this mix has been good ..

Well I am only a few hours from the refineries here so its always pretty fresh. As far as crickets the Husky 94 here is bad, otherwise most all others have zero noise etc. It's all on ethanol blend & the processing payments and requirements of different clients, all of these fuels are made and sent from only 2 refineries to begin with (for ALL of Canada), that's fact as I used to work at one as a process operator. ;)

Nice :) i can only dream of fresh gas here man, vp octanium is going to be my best freind

Someone who knows what they are doing needs to create a dictionary of tuning terms and get it stickied. What is "tip in knock" as opposed to just regular old knock?

Tip-in knock is knock that is induced by rapidly increasing the throttle.

When you rapidly increase the throttle (say flooring it when just cruising), the engine requires additional fuel immediately to satisfy the instant power demand. Too little fuel will cause the engine to go lean momentarily, causing knock. Usually, getting this tip-in fuel enrichment correct solves tip-in knock.

On the FA20 engine, with its high compression, it is nearly impossible to completely eliminate tip-in knock with just tip-in fuel enrichment. It is more prevalent in certain rpm/load points. The octane and quality of the fuel being used also contributes to tip-in knock or lack of it.
