Ohhh my gosh... i just got back from my first drive with a tune and cai. wowwww... i tried running without t/c on and def kicked out the backend quite a bit.. it scared me at first! going to keep that on lol
so yeah, i just got my JLT CAI and SCT tuner today. the cai went in very smoothly, and after updating the firmware on the sct tuner it tuned my car in about 10 minutes to the 87 street.
now for the questions..
it seems there is still some lag in the throttle response until about 3k rpm.. is this tune designed around gas mileage below 3k and power above 3k? i could see that making sense..
also, how long does it take for the car to readjust to a new tune? gas mileage read 10mpg for a while (i kept resetting it) but i think it might be creeping higher
on the tune options there is an axle ration option. what does this affect on the way the car performs? i told bama that i had 3.31's but it was set at stock, so i changed it to 3.31 manually before sending the tune.
thats all i actually changed, but also tire size and stuff were options on there.
so far i love it a lot. the intake has a PSH! sound to it lol and i went WOT under a bridge.. man, the growl!
also raced a lexus stoplight to stoplight.. dunno what it was, i never saw the back of his car lol
thank you american muscle and bama performance.
next week is atak catbacks
oh and while im at it, where do i go to request a new tune for adding the exhaust? do i just call them?
