Help me tune my 95 !

[v8killer]

Hey guys i am having a hard time tuning my 95 tsi because of the slow logging andvery few points. i blew a head gasket the other day and i don't wont to do it again. what are you guys doing to tune your 95....... i can make a run and only get 2 logging points on a full 3rd gear pull. what method are you guys using to be safe with the crappy logging on our cars ? Thanks........

Umm a wideband would help.... Thats what pretty much everyone uses to log with now... I use a EGT gauge and a wideband to tune with my maf-t...

What are you using for tuning. I saw an oistrich in your profile but it is hard to run a chip in the 2gs becuase the code hasn't really been put out public yet like the 1gs...

You need a wideband or a better logger. And you can learn alot from the 3 logs you get in the 3rd gear pull anyways... What were you getting from the 3 logs.... Your car is pretty much stock, alot of ebay parts that don't really make that much faster or will get it out of a tune....

1st off.. did you fix your blown headgasket??

And what are you using to tune (a logger only tells you whats going on..)

Do't knock the ebay parts. This car would fly till i put the stock tune back in it and that was on 14-15 psi ...... it's a 14b car that is deffinatly in the 11's........it g-teched 113-115 back to back and beat a few of my buddies cars that were low 12's sec cars !

i have a moates otrich and tunerpro rt, AEM Wideband, i log using wobd2 !

as for logging i tried to log 4 points: rpm-tps-timing-02-coolant. and i only got counts wideopen at 99.8% it's awful. i'm goping to try and log just rpm-timing.

What are your A/F's.... How come it is hard if you have everything you need to tune with ... did you set your deadtime and injector sizes right in the tunerpro... Did you mess with timing or A/F??? There has to be something messing up... And you run 11s with a 14b at 15lbs... if i read that right don't bullshit us unless you have a HIGH compression engine...

You need to tell us what is happening ... Where is the hiccup at???

A base tune is easy to get unless that 100 shot of nitrous melted your piston rings( F&F) and caused you to have low compression which is making you slow

What are your LTFT and STFT looking like?

Not experienced with tunerpro but Start with the basics and get your fuel trims in line, then work on WOT pulls

A/F wide open leans to about 11.8 wgich is to lean and thats on 12psi, when i blew the gasket i turned the boost down and put the stock tune back in..... it's a stock rebuilt 7 bolt and turned up with my alcohol kit it will run in the 11's tuned with a good hook. thats what i built the car for 11.99 goal on the 14b. the car just weighs 2610lbs. the deadtime is the same since i have 450cc injectors.

they are real close to 0 some times low can go to -3% high can go to 3-5%

Sounds like your stock injectors are getting pushed if its leaning out...

Your fuel trims are good

Are you able to log IDC?

But then again if your running meth, you should be ok at 11:8...

How much timing?

i'm going to check for boost leaks this weekend !

How much timing?

nope can't log idc, the meth kit isn't installed. timing is the stock 2g curve which goes to about 16 wideopen.

Nitrous has not been sprayed yet thats why i am tuning !

i used to hiccup on the old tune before i blew the gasket. i doesn't anymore with the stock tune......
