Tuned like a BOSS!
WTH? How? Are you tuned? Even with my lightfoot wife driving my 4-cyl Galant, she only managed to get ~350 out of a tank. Me in my V6? 250 to 280 consistently, and lately it's been lower, but I've been filling up before the light comes on.
Edit: I see you say you're tuned right at the bottom. Typing before reading FTL.
Haha I knew you would see that and correct it. I just sat here and waited lol. Imagine if I was manual swapped?
Yeah I'm super glad the stock pcm is tunable. Now if only I had a big map patch *clears throat* HAHA :P
I've already made stage 1 and stage 2 apex powered maps for the na 4g64
Shit I wanna get a 4-banger just to get that tune and save me some gas!
Thats the whole reason I didnt get a v6 this go around. The 4g64 loves me.
I think that's what I wanna go with this time. Although my last one only got like 250ish.
DAMN! 250 to a tank? Needed a tune up? Lol
Either that or pedal-to-floor contact was made many, many times. Even on my fastest tanks, I'd see 275 at least with a 4-banger.
I need to find and fix my vacuum leak because right now I'm only getting 21mpg in my 4g64 and it's a 5 speed. There's more problems too because my CEL says my charcoal canister needs to be replaced and EGR says it's clogged.
Thanks, and yeah its not plastidip
oh so its just flat paint?
Lol page 9.
Vacuum leak, cracked intake manifold, and God knows what else. Lol. But it did get a tune up shortly before I sold it.
You know Marc and I have always been collaborating together with the tuning stuff, Marc has excelled with the 4cyl motors for good reason with his Evo and Galant tuning. I could always help you out with a tune for the V6 motor as that is what I have mainly worked on for tunes.
Now people are seeing how OCD Marc and I are about our tuning and the results it is getting for overall performance and not just sucking your wallet dry for fuel costs
Matt, that sounds good. I'm bone stock save for a removed intake resonator, so I'd think it'd be easy to give me a base tune or something (i'm not 100% on the terminology). I'd need to learn Ecuflash and the sort, and perhaps a wideband installed, but I'm definitely interested. I can't make a move until the first of year financially, but keep me in mind, I definitely want to learn more.
Sorry for the threadjack Marc!
I want to know more about tuning too. I know we have to get a tactrix 2.0 cable, wideband and log the car and send the files. Just wondering can 99 v6 ECUs be flashed or would I have to swap out the ECU?
Sorry for being off topic, back to the tumbler, wouldn't these look sick on it:

Omg I fell in love with those meisters on an evo x I've been seeing around on the interwebs. *fap* *fap* But I'm still hell bent on those damn rota torque I had on ivory

Oh yes walked out this morning to snow and saw her snarling at me like "Clean me off and lets go" LOL! I swear I have a thing for picking cars with that little bit extra.

Those wheels had the best look on the car man, I still stare at the photos from the shoot we did of Ivory and they just scream "come at me!!" Put that wheel setup on Tumbler and it is going to look sinister as fawk!

That evo x? he's local to me, see him at a bunch of meets.
Torques doe :/
Hell yeah! Me too. The wheel design on the body just looks so fookin tough!
Yep thats the X. I watched his build on evoxforums. pretty awesome looking car.
Lol and its my car not yours you dont need to worry about what wheels I put on :)
My dream wheel has been the Rota Torque's ever since I saw them on Ivory. That will be my final wheel on my car I think...
http://i603.photobucket.com/albums/t...3456183iw4.gif
Haha Rota Torque Club Unite! HAHA. The wheel design is different than the Cr kai's and I like the torques better honestly.
You like the Torque better because its cheaper.
Rotas as dream wheel....:door:
Since when are you psychic? O_o Cool!! Youre about as good as Ms Cleo though. Dont let the door hit you where the good Lord split you.
Yup so......catback, fpr and fuel rail, greddy oil sandwich plate, turbo feed and drain fittings, intercooler and piping all ordered. Waiting to see what injectors I go with.....only thing left is a turbo outlet flange, oil pan fitting, -an fittings, pushlock line LOL!
Marc, I would suggest getting an evo 8 oil filter housing rather than using a sandwich plate, there are two ports on it that you can open up for your feedline and your oil pressure gauge sender if you get one, direct bolt on too, and it allows you to easily run an oil cooler and prevents the oil filter from hanging lower than necessary. While you're down there I would suggest getting either an OEM evo oil pan baffle or a tomei piece. Just some thoughts. :) Can't wait to see the numbers when you're done.
yeah I saw that in your thread and was like wth? o_O thats news to me that the housing just bolts up. I'll run with the sandwich adapter for the time being since its already ordered and had a good experience with the greddy one. I will definitely pick up the evo housing though. super convenient. I actually plan on having a baffle fabbed when the 64 pan comes off ;)
Hah and I seem to have a good hand for picking galants. I have a feeling the Tumbler is going to make torque like Ivory with more power.
If your interested in a evo8 oil pan with windage tray and oil pick up I have one collecting dust...
Turbo outlet flange, Evo 8 oil pan, baffle, oil pick up ordered (thanks Dion!) Pretty much just injectors now which I am bidding/waiting on.
Very welcome buddy, looks like tumbler will be boosted veeeeeeeeery soon..
*sinister laugh* ^__^
Hopefully the auto trans will hold up until I can get the manual tranny in.
All depends on how heavy your foot is lmao if it was me not long at all. I don't get along we'll with auto's
Me either :(
HAHA. I'm going to have to tune it to let the torque come on smoothly and gradually cause I'm going to burry my foot just to hear it LMAO
3k and above should be adequate
