New dynotune from Logan Motorsports.

Hey I found out that I had a vacuum leak from both my upper and lower intake manifold gaskets when I had my car tuned last. I fixed the problem and took my car back over to Dewayne over at Logan Motorsports. It turned out I was running pretty rich due to the lack of vacuum leak and now I was able to gain a peak 196 ft/lbs of torque and gain some mpg's while I was at it. Hooray for Logan.

Re: New dynotune from Logan Motorsports.

3L . . . looks like another success story for LMS.

Re: New dynotune from Logan Motorsports.

Too bad they are not closer to me. I really need more tuning since i wasn't happy with where i went.

Re: New dynotune from Logan Motorsports.

Well i have that idle thing you had Josh. But its weird, sometimes i have it and other times it idles perfect. Also i have a very sight buck feeling when im on the throttle very lightly. Kind of hard to explain.

Otherwise though i am happy with the tune. It was only 2 hours of tuning also so that could be some of my problem. The tune isn't crap just needs a little more work.

I gotta tell ya, it took Logan about two hours to tune the car when I was up there the first time, and they got it dead on. I dunno if "only" two hours is the problem.

my car is the exact same way, idles poorly and loopy *sometimes* and on throttle tip in it bucks. Same exact problem.
