Hello all,

I am posting asking for some help with tuning for my new setup. I just recently got my Skunk 2 alpha header installed and already had a Hybrid Racing 3" CAI and Full Race 3" catback exhaust installed. I am using the generic basemap on the FlashPro for a header and wanted to know if anyone could look things over and possibly make any small adjustments for me if needed. Additionally, I took some datalogs and will upload those. Unfortunately, my car is currently throwing a CEL due to a P0101 code and these datalogs were all taken under 3k RPM due to the vehicle being in limp mode. I am currently working on mitigating the issue and will take more datalogs and upload those here if I can get the vehicle to not have the CEL.

I've cleaned my MAF, I have the secondary O2 disabled, and I replaced my primary O2 along with the Skunk 2 extension for it. Hoping this will help resolve my issue. I'm also wondering if there are any other check boxes I should have on or off on the calibration to help fix this. If not, I plan to disable the P0101 code in FlashPro and continue to drive the car, as long as you guys think this is safe to do. I would then take datalogs in this situation and hopefully one of you kind folk would be willing to look them over and let me know if the car is running well despite having to disable the engine code.

Thanks for all and any help, it is much appreciated as I am a noob when it comes to tuning and not quite good at it.

Best,
Kyle

Hey y'all,

I think I finally solved the CEL issue. Here is the new calibration I used and a pretty solid datalog with said calibration and no CEL. Got some 3rd gear WOT pulls in and some solid time driving around regularly. Any suggestions for improvements on the calibration and any info as to if the car seems to be running well with it would be great!

Thanks again,
Kyle

Welp, turned the car off, ran inside for a snack, and then went to go for a drive and the CEL went right back on and the car went into limp mode. Thinking I’m gonna just shut the P0101 code off in FlashPro and drive and see what happens. Let me know your guys thoughts. Thanks.

More than likely the intake is cause the issue. The MAF will need to be custom tuned for this intake. Alternately you can put the stock intake on and see if the problem goes away.

Kyle,

The car is running lean and has a high amount of knock. I would not drive the car too hard until you get it dialed in. I would uncheck any codes associated with the MAF sensor.

Do you mean in the MISC option on the calibration tab, turn off any code that could be cause by the MAF sensor? Additionally, I noticed the car bogging or something of a similar feel at the high rpm’s, right around 6-8k, could this be related to the fact that the car is running lean?

Kyle,

Yes, in the MISC section turn off the codes associated with the MAF sensor. Yes, it is possible that the car is bogging due to it running lean and knocking.

Hi Ed,

Appreciate the help and heads up. If I were to try a different tune on the car and post a datalog, would you be willing to let me know if it looks like the car is running a little better/safer?

Thanks,
Kyle

Kyle,

Sure I can take a look at it but I don’t recommend to go from one calibration file to another. Since you already know the modifications that need to be done it is best to make the modifications needed otherwise you might be going from one file to another that may have the same results. I can assist with adjustments when I get some downtime.

-Ed

Kyle,

I finally had some downtime. I made some broad fuel changes and adjusted timing where knock was present.

Load the revised calibration and Create a normal drive log only.
