If that should happen again it might be a good idea to just pull the abs fuse.

I forgot about that trick. And I will look into it.

Thanks for the help.

As I start to post up things I will post this and you can see the power hit it has made. We are looking into it now. This problem came up running the Header, Cross-Over pipe and Catback.

I will make sure to point this out when I post the chart for this run. Since the single part runs have made more power. And we have logged the AFR's. You can see the tank and then power go flat.
But please keep in mind this is the 1st time we have seen this and this car doesn't have a tune.

I'll keep updating
I know that the ECU needs a bit of time to 'relearn' the setup, so it is quite possible that the full setup won't show the gains that are present after a few hundred miles. That's why dyno testing is an inherent issue if you don't have a fully understood and programmable ECU.

New platforms are always an issue.

Yea, with the way the weight is distributed on these cars and the added power the cqar rotates a lot faster.

Yes the new platform has a learning curve. Ecu stuff is not new to Jason, Matt or myself. Just this platform is. Learning curve for all.

Back out on the dyno.

Ha, you ladies had better get your checkbooks ready, convert your Hawaiian money over to American money, and make sure your f5 buttons are in proper working order for when these results are posted up.

I am working on updating. I do wonder if it is better to start a part III and post a link to that thread here and have this thread locked?


What do you guys feel is best? I feel that lets the info posted here be here, our claim stays as well. Then for the new info people will not have to dig thru this thread to find it.

I would not like to add to the 1st post as it then shows its been edited. Which brings up questions.

So let me know if lock this thread and part III is best path.
