I ended up with a blown engine in the end.. Something sooo small can make a big problem with a modified car... Just get it back to the shop and let the pros fine tune it and she will be fine.

Expect to pay around the $300 mark for a sensor, module and gauge. I have one permanently fitted. Definitely don't change your tune if you don't know what you are doing. Ironically if you loaded the factory tune with larger injectors it will run rich. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BAXRTUTE Gold Donating Members 2,639 Member For: 8y Posted 29/10/16 12:42 PM Share Posted 29/10/16 12:42 PM Hahaha true dat puff. Though probs worse then how it is now yes? And why pay $300 for something when the file loaded can be tweaked to fix for usaully free if its a tune related issue from the same tuna? Wont argue with u though as u know a bit about a bit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BAXRTUTE Gold Donating Members 2,639 Member For: 8y Posted 29/10/16 12:56 PM Share Posted 29/10/16 12:56 PM Well I can tell u my 62lb file wont run my id1000s. So my thoughts where that putting a stock file in against a modded fuel system would be a very very bad idea and probs wouldnt run anyway. But im still learning these engines where puff seems to know a lil bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
