Im anxious to hear more impressions, especially after a tune... Im getting pretty damn close to pulling the trigger...

Here's the thing guys, with CPE you can and CAN'T tune fuel trims. There's a point when the computer stops listening completely and once that happens you're almost fucked. Hopefully its different in your case but in mine it wasn't.

So go after timing, boost, etc. Yes, a high-flow fuel pump will be a necessary upgrade eventually, but that will depend on the # of bolt-ons you're tuning for. My fuel cut was easy to get rid of.

Oh Fuel cut is easy by the Boost clip PSI changing but you'll have it later on possibly. Not that you do it often drop it into 5th around 2-2.5k rpms and WOT see if you get fuel cut. If not awesome. It's very possible since you don't have the downpipe you wont have some of the issues.

Just got back from RP....no driveability issues yet. 6th pulls like a madman on the freeway, even from low rpms.

Glad to hear that your happy Rich. A lot of the issues that Josh had was supposed to be resolved with the 2.0 Standback and I think that almost all of them will go away with the combination of Stnadback & the upgraded fuel pump. If you are going to be at the BWW meet, I would love to check it out.

With an approx. 50 HP gain to the wheels on the base tune and no fuel cut, I couldn't be happier. I'll be there tomorrow night at BWW.

See toldja you'd have some nice gains ;P just higher than i expected.

So you went from 172whp to 222whp on RP's dynp? That's awesome!! Like I said before, your largest gains would be from engine management. You're making STI power now

How many PSI of boost did you tune for? What AFR's were you tuning for? Very nice!!

firestoned · Postby **firestoned** » Thu Mar 13, 2008 9:14

I dont think they did tuning yet...thats with the base map.

arctic_blue83 · Postby **arctic_blue83** » Thu Mar 13, 2008 9:14

I missed that earlier lol. Wow... now my questions are, with the baseline, how much boost are you seeing? What did your AFR's look like? Rich, if you have graph, post it up!!

firestoned · Postby **firestoned** » Thu Mar 13, 2008 9:14

I know ...that shits crazy, its definitely on my near future purchase list...

Yeah, I did it....
