The ECM starts pulling power when AIT gets over about 90 deg F (I don't remember exact figure; should be in FSM). I'd take a look at that while your at it.

This is the latest Dyno I took to verify my butt Dyno... I knew something was off.
The squealing sound, I don't know yet, it could be the washers I had in my front crash bar to add clearance. I'll see if it disappeared.


This was the last tune in May... It looks a bit rough compared to my previous tune. It's definitely not nearly as smooth and down 10lbft of TQ.


Car is at the shop. First pull was 315. They took the bumper off and it was at 320. He didn't give me the tq number. He took the log data and sent it to my tuner.
They're saying the VVEL is acting up with the tune after 5600rpm. I guess there is an ecutek setting to fix that. I'm still waiting to get the car back.

Btw, here's a pic of the new stuff
I decided to order an F.I. crash bar hoping it would give at least the same clearance as a modified crash bar as well as giving me some breathing room with the oil cooler.
socce likes this.

Car is in my hands but still not completely fixed. Still needs a return and the screeching still exists . I have to wait for the Dyno to get fixed to really fix both. Outside of that, $150 to get the bar put on, intakes thrown on, the undertray installed, and a couple Dyno passes is bad at all. It will be back in a few days for the return and hopefully that screech
