You "nasty PM'd ME", not the other way around. I forgave you the last time a few months ago when you cussed me all over the FI forum. I can forgive you again now. But please don't make it sound as though I was the one who started the PM'ing FU's.

I offered to fix your car free and meant it. Why in the world would I want anything less than to make your car run the way it should? My offer stands indefinitely.

Lastly, I really hope your not using EFI live with stock O2's to tune the car. Are you? If so, then Slowhawk I take back what I said earlier, it IS the tuning (at least in part). If not, then I would personally start by checking the E-Boost connections as well as all vacuum lines. I SERIOUSLY doubt it's a wastegate issue. And I seriously believe it's something simple that's just been overlooked.

Okay here we go:

1. Send me the LS1Edit file and let me look at it.
2. I'd like to see a dyno graph with AF
3. Please VERIFY that the E-Boost is correctly hooked up
4. Please Verify that the WG settings and the Overboost Protection on the E-Boost are correctly set. Pass on those settings to me please.
5. Make sure that there is no leak at the BOV. In fact, I would prefer that you simply block it off for the time being to rule it out.
6. What valve springs are on the motor?
7. If all else checks out, then inspect the wastegate rubber seal and spring.

If everything I listed is good, and after Sunday the car still wont make power, rent a trailer and bring it on. I will fix it AT NO CHARGE. Guaranteed.

Rob has offered to fix and TUNE the car for free?

If that isn't acceptable then I don't know what is. If I were in Trans's shoes I'd be shipping my car off to Rob within the following week to have it fixed.

KAOS and I installed Warbird's kit on KAOS's car on JACKSTANDS with a 110 piece Craftsman mechanic toolset of KAOS's. KAOS had Rob tune it and it works just as it was claimed to work. Obviously Rob knows what he's doing.

We will know whats going on Sunday.

Sorry,the car will never go to Rob.I still remember the last bashing and do not trust anything that he say's.I'm not very forgiving and remember alot.O-well.

Greg is trying to get it 100% by working on it himself,which is fine.I and alot of others would prefer him to drop it off to me for a week so I can work on it till it's done,but he is doing the work on his car which is fine.

Hopefully someday I can talk him into a wideband mounted in his car That is 1 of the most important tuning tools.As for EFI live,I use it to read alot of things but not the 02's.

1 thing is for sure,he will be pushing more hp than before after Sunday

Obviously you have not seen all the threads OR know what has gone on behind the scenes.Read the thread again and see if YOU would bring your car to Rob IF you were Transdamit

Funny how this thread just ask for suggestions and turned into crap AGAIN because someone doesn't like his product questioned It is really no big deal

ok lock this thing, its getting alil crazy (again). Im not saying take the car to rob, but you should take some of his advice hes not a idiot when it comes to his own kit. There is enough info within this forum to fix just about anything. just my .02 cents

goodluck both of you gentlemen

Gee I wonder why Rob doesn't sell DIY kits anymore

If the guy helping you out with your problems is so good why are you asking on this board for help and then not listening to the person who designed the kit. If I was Rob I would have given you the big a long time ago.

No wonder Lingenfelter doesn't sell DIY kits. If they did there would be a bunch of people who don't know WTF they are doing putting their kits on wrong and then going around claiming "LPE SUCKS".

Hey Rob any progress on your C5 TT kit? I know your plate has been pretty full lately.

This one is done, let us know how it goes Sunday Gregggggg and good luck.

All the posts that were deleted contained no tech as per what I said earlier in this thread, unfortunately as I kept reading it would be easier to delete the whole thread. There are plenty of people here who could make suggestions but who would want to with all this.
