Hey hows it going? Figured I would introduce myself on here. I am from Montana originally and moved here when I joined the Army.

I have a 95 GST, Forged Wiseco Pistons, Scat Rods, ACL Bearings, Rebuilt head, 680cc Injectors, Walbro 255FP, meth injection, Nippon 272 Cams, Big 16g Turbo @ 24psi, FMIC, Tein shocks w/Eibach Springs, ACT 2600 Clutch, Apexi N1 Exhaust, Apexi SAFC, E-Prom ECU.

Now I have a nasty lifter tick that I am going to fix hopefully next week. I am also going to be getting a DSM-Link next week(hopefully) as well. My issue is I have no clue about the program/tuning aspect. Which leads to my question, who has experience/knowledge about tuning with DSM-Link?

Thomas down at modified imports pretty much knows everything about eclipses and talons. hess located off of vista lane over near the 41A bypass, telephone number 931-645-9007
 
He has pretty much done all the work on it already. I wanted to learn to do it myself with someone looking over my shoulder making sure I do not destroy it. Also I can then tune for future upgrades on my own :D

EDIT: I would like to learn more about it so I can help others and pass knowledge on as well.
 
Ah, cant really say i know then, i just trial and error'd mine until it felt right. LOL
 
Ok will do. Thanks.
 
Thomas is a #### face who tried to tell me that you can use 7 bolt rods on a 6 bolt crank.. I tried to make up with him because I owed him 50$ for a set of pistons and rods that won't work like he said.. I went to rehab for alcoholism before I could pay him and when I got out I tried to pay him and he treated me like a theif. I bought my car from him and he was supposed to give me a mod list but the ####er never did.. He is garbage and everyone around will tell you the same.
 
Like mentioned above, go to ecmlink.com and read,read,read.
 
Received the DSMLinkV3 today, I should be getting my TopLine revised lifters and some other little odds and ends by Friday. I am going to be installing the lifters then install the chip this weekend and start tuning :D

I currently have the 1st gen Apexi SAFC installed and was wondering if there is anything I should be aware of when taking it out?

hey dave any luck with those clips?
 
Yea man, sounds good. Sometime when I head to Nashville I will let you know. I think the SAFC is gone but if something happens I will let you know.
 
my tuning was trial and error with alot of reading as well, It eventually got faster with no knock and i was slowly getting better and better fuel economy out of it at the same time.
I have rebought dsmlink for my 6bolt/2g head build, and even though alots comming back, i feel like i am having to relearn it all, since it's been over 2 years since i blew mine up.
 
You are correct, I work in the FSE as a COLT Team Chief.
