Default Thanks ellis

well the retune after relearn.turns out to make that car perform very well bumped fuel mileage up 2 mpg in town.But we lost the good cold idle...
After it warms up it is great to adjust for this till i see you again. i turned the set screw in about a quarter turn and reset the TPS it idles colds at 500 then goes to a 1000rpm idle after warm up.so i'm happy a little more tweaks and we will have it nailed down.

If i was you i would honestly wait for ellis to do the tune until you get another cam for your car.He could do both in one shot instead of paying for a tune then paying for a cam/tune down the road.Just my 2 cents


On a side not not only did ellis fix my car up where it runs so much better he also told me where i errored in rebuilding the truck. within 5 mins he told me what was wrong with it. Took me 20 mins more to correct it now that runs bad **** too

If that is the case then it would be worth it to get a good tune stuffed in it now.
