OBDII tuning info needed I have just purchased Jet DST and need some info on where I should start. First I will give all the vehicle info that I can. Any good info here would be greatly appreciated. I did read up on this some but it would be much easier to get started doing this with some good info or tunes to look at. I looked in the tuning section of the site but it looks to be ls1 info.
97 WS6 A4 stock internals and heads but does have a low 160 degree thermostat. It has a ford 9 inch with 3.70 gears PST aluminum drive shaft stock stall but I am not sure on shift kit as it hits a bit hard going into 2nd gear. I will be installing race version pacesetter coated long tubes within the next month with the off road y pipe going into a loud mouth 1 cat back. It does have an under drive pulley set up that may or may not stay on the car this year. More importantly someone in the past had used a hypertech tuner on it and I am not sure if it was set back to stock before it was sold to me. This is not a daily driver and honestly doesnt get driven much even in the summer as I dont take it to work since its very dusty there. I do race it a few times a month.
Does anyone have a stock factory tune for this car so I can be sure that the hypertech crap was uninstalled first off. Secondly does anyone have a tune for a car close to what I have that I could look at to get a good starting point for tuning.
Some of the things I can do right away like tuning out the egr and air. I would like to start trying to tune it a bit here for more power then take it up to the dyno with wide band o2 and finish it there. I dont want to pay for a 500 dyno tune since I will be adding heads cam package next year and have to pay to do it all over again. I can get 3 pulls with af readings for around 90 bucks and play with it myself there. I am assuming with the better flowing exhaust I should be able to tune in some more power then the factory tune or worse yet the hypertech tune is still in it which likely is costing me power now.
