Hi everyone I am fairly new to tuning. I just got dsmlink v3 lite. Was this a good investment?
Lucky for me I had an EPROM ecu and just had to get it socketed for the chip. All that is done and I'm having trouble with installing the wires that came with the kit. The clutch wires I believe. I know it comes with instructions but would rather follow someone's instructions step by step instead of the blunt instructions given on the piece of paper.
Also, once I get it up and going what do I do? I tried to put the disk it came with in my lap top and there is nothing really on it like the software I seen on my friends. Do I got to download some type of software off the site in order to tune with link? I'm sorry for all the newbie questions I just don't want to mess anything up. I want to get my car tuned to specs so I can drive it safely without having to worry about something going wrong for something I entered incorrectly on link.
What would be the first thing I do once I get in my car and plugged up to my lap top? I have all the things that will be on my car on my profile. I will list them so you don't have to go and check and come back
Car was bone stock when I got it at 134000
Mods as of today: some installed some not. Still building.
Stock block with 136000
Stock head
Stock intake manifold
3" cat back exhaust with 4" tip.
3" downpipe de cat
Ss custom 2.5" o2 housing, custom work to weld shut upper inlet in order to run external wastegate
3" turbo intake
Greddy Front mount Intercooler 2.5" piping
Greddy Blow Off Valve
Mitsubishi 20g turbocharger freshly rebuilt
Ss oil feed line
Walbro 255 in tank fuel pump with rewire kit
Precision Turbo & Engine 880cc Injectors
Freshly rebuilt head with less than 200 miles
Racing tubular racing exhaust Manifold custom work to run External Wastegate (38mm)
38mm External Wastegate
Manual Boost Controller
Glow Shift Boost and vac Gauge
Glow shift a/f ratio gauge
Aem Wideband Uego Gauge and Sensor
Oil pressure gauge
DsmLink v3Lite already installed in eprom ecu
Tokico blues and tokico red lowering springs
I really hope I am not asking to much in one post. I really just want to do it right the first time. Could anyone one just let me know the steps they would take link wise with the mods I have now? Like what would you do first then next and so on and so on?
Thank you all for helping me. I don't know how to thank you enough. I heard many good things about this site and the knowledge of the tuners on here. I hope I could come across a couple to help me get my car tuned right. Thanks again.
