A few questions on Tuning

[thesilverbullet]

You don't need a heat exchanger for your tune. They shouldn't be doing repeated pulls to heat soak.

You should do a heat exchanger for when you are beating on it.

I just did a remote tune from Sydney Australia with Sonictuned, it was a very smooth process and the car feels phenomenal now. The VR30 platform is pretty unknown here, and while there are good tuners locally, it's much better to go with someone that knows the platform (IMO).

Side note: I ran catted FDPs without a tune or CEL for a number of weeks before my tune arrived.

awesome - are you a/t or m/t? Any issues finding a decent road to do 4th gear pulls (assuming m/t) for the datalog? How many pulls did it take?

my tuner said its not needed for the tune - but I’m going to need if after tuning -lol.

it will make the tuning process smoother, once heat soaked on the dyno, you will be done or waiting for it cool down.

M/T, luckily I have a fairly quiet highway nearby and just went out late one weeknight for the 4th gear pull. It is a bit scary however.

I did an idle log, and two 3rd gear pulls each in a different map. Then I got sent a revision and did 3rd and 4th gear pulls, now I have the final and need to do 3rd and 4th again to validate.
