Is my problem in the tune?
Ok. I have a bit of a problem. Say for instance I take my car out of the garage, drive it somewhere and park in a parking lot for 10 minutes or so and come back out to go back home. After the car is warm and is turned off, then back on to drive somewhere else, its like the car has a miss or studder around 2400-3500 rpm then after it goes through its episode once, it quits and runs great. It only develops this studder after it is warm and has been turned off and back on and it only does it once. When it does it, it feels like the car is going to die, and then if you give it a little more gas it comes right back. Anybody know whats goin on and how I would go about fixin it?
Thanks.
Zach

Oh and also it dosent throw any codes or anything. I have just recently replaced the fuel pump and injectors along with my new heads and cam and had it retuned after. It was doing this before my heads/cam swap and i thought it was the fuel pump but that wasnt my problem.

You really need to capture the issue on a scanner or data logger. Then, post the log. It's a rather unique issue and we could guess all day and never tell you the right answer...if it's even in the tune.

Ok...O2's go crazy. What does that mean? Do they peg high or low mV's? Or do they just start switching all of the sudden? If they just start switching all of the sudden and given the timing, it sounds like the car has a rough transition from a warm open loop, possibly rich AFR to closed loop operation locked in at 14.63:1. If that's the case, the VE table could be tuned incorrectly or the HPT proportional fueling setting may be off (assuming HPT was used).
