[QUOTE="maplemale, post: 1156825, member: 17366"] So... an update cause a few things just happened. Got more tunes from Larz who wants to spend some more time working on this before we scrap the injectors. Though, my heart's already set on it at this point and already got the budget past the wifey. :naughty: Haven't told him yet, cause I want to try it again in the morning when it's good and cold, but it didn't seem like the new tunes did anything at all. Also, I went ahead and bought a daily driver tune from Bill (PowerHungry) just to test it. Interesting... aside from sounding completely different and killing the engine when I switch between Bill's and Matt's tunes, it didn't change a whole lot, but did seem to have a little less smoke at cold idle. It was 70+ degrees in Denver today, so it's hard to say cause it doesn't smoke much at 70 anyway. But, it did seem like less smoke on Bill's tunes. Oh... and I have to say I do like Matt's shifting better now that I've driven both. Maybe just personal preference. But, I don't like to feel it shift. :p New issue: I started getting romps. 3 - 4 romps after it starts. I've had weak batteries for a while, so the first time this happened (5 days ago at 20 degrees), I just changed em with Interstate G65s from Costco. But, then tonight it romped again at 55 degrees out - 4 times with new batteries. Maybe the romp is completely unrelated. Who knows. Time to check the ICP and IPR again I guess. Not really sure what to check there yet... Friday an ass load of new parts arrive. Had planned on some upgrades early 2015 and I'm tired of working on lame things that just piss me off and aren't any fun anymore. So, the 4" exhaust, bellowed up-pipes, plenums, clamp kit and 6.0 MAP sensor comes Friday. Going to be a fun weekend spent in the garage! Maybe we'll pull the injectors anyway just to have a look if I'm in the mood for it - unlikely! The map sensor isn't something I've ever messed with. Just want the other sensor so I can read higher boost. Maybe it's the culprit and all this will just go away - I keep hoping. :blitzed: [/QUOTE]
