^You look grumpy!
I bet it's because you know how badly your downpipe and exhaust manifold are holding you back. Man...you should just sell those ASAP so you can turn that frown upside-down

Hey, it's the only thing I've got on him. His wheels and tires are wider, his car makes more power and his paint isn't orange peeled.

They do look great, especially with the fall colors in the background.

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
So at lunch just now I finally figured, time to give the track tune a test, temps weren't cold at all so I figured it should be ok...
Lots O knock according to my Knock CEL, fast flashing too, I let off pretty quick
I need to stop by DB tonight to check a possible oil leak and get the clutch bleed again too so I will talk it over with Shane. I am not sure how scared I am supposed to be of the knock I am seeing.
Ps...this car is damn near impossible to keep in boost between shifts, maybe I am doing it wrong, but i would love some NLTS! |

Only time I ever see the fast light is off the rev limiter. That would be enough right there to get me to switch back to the other tune and not use it again until it can get some Shane attention.

I've seen the fast flashing on the DD tune too though. Mostly when its very very cold though.
So yea, no idea. |

Could just be the pistons flopping around if the car isn't up to temp. I get the same thing.
I saw my share of KnockCEL when I was at the track last time. In my case I know what it is...fueling. |

Yea mine isn't fueling for sure, but not having boost error correction on could be the culprit, perhaps boost spiking and running lean I guess? |

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
Did Shane mention where your IDCs were at with the 1400's? I'd assume there's a fair bit of headroom remaining. I'm just curious if the 1300's would be enough for an E98 tune on a Black.
I wait until my car is at full temp, which is half-way on that temp gauge.
