Clough1022 Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 Well finally got a tactix cable and started logging. Results were not good. Also I did not have the exact parameters sug, I was selecting ones I thought at the time were needed. Tune on car when logged was TDC Etune from a previous owner. Luckily I just switched to this tune to log to see what results I would get on this tune. Also got a p0244 code which hopefully isn't a foreshadowing of a bad wastegate flap or crack. Logging file will be loaded tonight at home. But just a tale tell sign of what your gonna see. 6 degrees of knock correction [emoji20] Sent from my LGL16C using Tapatalk romraiderlog_20160829_090609.csv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tuning Alliance Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 I highly suggest getting a cobb accessport. Cobb offers more defined tables than opensource which will allow the tuner to give you a better tune. Mike actually use to tune at TDC a long time ago, so if its that old he may have been the tuner of that original map. Of course if the vehicle wasn't kept in best of shape, I'm sure it has some issues that need addressing with the tune. -Brian Contact us for all your tuning and performance parts needs!

Clough1022 Posted August 29, 2016 Author Share Posted August 29, 2016 Yea I have had vehicle for 2 months or so and the TDC tune was on my accessport. Right now running stage 2 ots map until I get a v3. As per talking with you. I'm just logging as of right now. Going to log with my stg2 cobb map loaded later to see if there was something not up to date with TDC map Sent from my LGL16C using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tuning Alliance Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 I'm confused, you have an AP but you are logging with romreader/tactrix cable -Brian Contact us for all your tuning and performance parts needs!

Max Capacity Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 I wonder if the PO kept the Cobb AP and sold the car without giving it to the buyer ? 305,600miles 5/2012 ej257 short block, 8/2011 installed VF52 turbo, @20.8psi, 280whp, 300ftlbs.

FLlegacy Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 I wonder if the PO kept the Cobb AP and sold the car without giving it to the buyer ? The AP is worthless without being unmarried. As is the tune without the AP. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using Tapatalk That's not entirely true. Assuming you don't lose battery, the tune is the same on the car whether or not the AP is connected. Now you lose the tune as soon as you marry another AP, but the tune itself doesn't need the AP to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clough1022 Posted August 30, 2016 Author Share Posted August 30, 2016 I have a v1. Can't log with that. So I borrowed a tactrix cable and loaded rr on laptop to check car over Sent from my LGL16C using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clough1022 Posted August 30, 2016 Author Share Posted August 30, 2016 I wonder if the PO kept the Cobb AP and sold the car without giving it to the buyer ? No I got the v1 ap from the guy I bought the car from. It's just I think he flipped cars. The owner before him did the mods but he didn't have a lot of info on exactly what was done.

Mega Users seabass07 Posted August 30, 2016 Mega Users Share Posted August 30, 2016 The tactrix/romraider combo is still a great tuning platform. His tuning platform is not the cause of his bad logs, so why push an accessport on someone? The Accessport has more defined maps thanks to one of the main romraider devs working for cobb now, but that doesn't mean romraider isn't a very capable platform.

Yea so far it's great excited to learn more. And if later on down the road I get more mods maybe I'll head down this route. I would really like to be able to tune and have it right.

Plus with the v3 you can view on demand 6 gauges which is pretty neat/helpful. -Brian Contact us for all your tuning and performance parts needs! Etuning the legacy community since 2008!

I'm sure they've added a couple more since), but BtSsm is a FAR superior logger/gauge display. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clough1022 Posted September 1, 2016 Author Share Posted September 1, 2016 Well went ahead and got my wideband, throttle to tmic hose from gimmick, and gfb tms response. Needed wideband and wideband cobb v3 little to much for me. Cobb will probably be tax time from tuning alliance with tune and gs ebcs. Until still gonna fool around with tactrix logging to eat some time before tax time Sent from my LGL16C using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
