When to do a little tuning last night, found some unwanted bugs.

My WB likes to randomly shit out I'm thinking due to voltage issues because of the error it is giving, but it doesn't make sense.

Tuning wise, I have no MBC and the cutout causes creep up to 17-19psi and for some reason on pump/92 oct with 950s and a evo9 fuel pump it just won't keep up.
Today I am going to boost leak test and swap in a 255 and see what happens and I'm gonna check into this dumb WB issue.

Oh windshield is getting replaced in a couple of hours, :woot:

To wrap on a long week, the car runs great tuned it tonight.
The car needs a ISC badly, but I still tried to get it ready for the track tomorrow.

Well the trans is not at full pressure yet and it will not shift into 3rd.
I want to say thanks to everyone that helped me out this week, I'm gonna pay a visit to a local and see what we can do with this trans.

wow, I can't believe teh last post was a week ago, seems like a month with all the fun I've been having.

I found another ISC around my garage that seems to work for the most part.

I spent 2 nights running down to Savage to have blkrosenova socket my TCU, went to see Jrohner today for some TCU programming action and the TCU was running in limp mode (stuck in 3rd). great right.

This was to wrap up my week of 2, thats right 2 failing Innovate LC1 widebands, I'm gonna have munchgsx stop by and check out my install because I can't believe its teh WB, the first one was bad it was off 2 volts.

Tomorrow I will try to put a bigger ground wire to my power distribution box to see if that helps this issues because I know the LC1 is very picky about grounds.

I'm determined to get this car solid, meaning a good tune and running and driving great before I have to put it away, no matter how many hurdles keep coming up.

I had the double sided tape on the doors removed and the car looks a lot better, hopefully sometime this week I will wash the car and wax it for the first time since owning the car, which reminds me of some good news, I received the title for the car so its officially mine which I hope means we will get along a lot better now.

So, shitty update time.

LC1 in extended bung failed again, it was nice to drive the car on some back roads that are salt free.

TCU still doesn't work.

So now i have to send in teh complete LC1 which means uninstalling it again and the TCU I'll probably send in to the Link guys and get checked out.

All in all an utter fail for my last update for a while, this put me in the mood to not spend a damn penny on this thing until I'm working full time.

So basically I'm gonna put her in winter mode (4 jackstands high as I can), pull the wideband, and hopefully not touch it for a while.

When I do get a new heater that doesn't give me carbon mono poisoning I'll probably fix all the leaks I can, and kinda go from there I'd like to replace the LC1 I'm sick and tired of it.

Brown out.

you could make a super cheap shift box and your trans will shift into all gears and you dont need the tcu in the car

I just have other goals in mind and with me finally starting to work I have stuff to concentrate on both time and money wise.

I'm also tired of products not working as they should.

Install error perhaps? Not to say you don't know what your doing, maybe you have a bad ground or an intermittent short that is killing them. I find it hard to believe you would have problems with multiple units.
