Down Dave! Down!!!
Hank....just leave it at my place. After all, I have experience with massively turbo charged 5 cylinders. Dave is stuck in the N/A business....you don't want to leave at his house. I might even make my A4 sleep outside just for you.

great
Your dad cooks a mean steak!
Ended up being me, your mom (who is still pissed about that Hibiscus
), Sean, and your dad. Good stuff.
We had to.. ahem.. borrow your LM1 because Sean's LC1 is toasty fried. I've had terrible luck with those things as well..
Tuning went well, Sean's car is running pretty smooth now. Just needs more boost.. he didn't have a boost controller hooked up so we settled for a smooth spring pressure tune.

Very Cool!! So he is just running the 12 psi or whatever? why do the LC1s burn up like that?

99% of LC1 problems I've seen come when people wire them so they're on under cranking. The fluctuating voltages can freak 'em out.
Sounds like well designed hardware

You mean how they tell you to wire it? Seems silly to have to turn your wide band on and off when it's part of an "integrated" system.
A month ago I asked questions in my thread about running a NB for full time use and using the LC-1 for tuning purposes - which would probably have saved my (their) sub standard unit.
Regardless of Innovate's issues Marc transformed the car last night. My learning curve was accelerated greatly during the time he spent in the passenger seat. Thanks again Marc!!

Hrm..
Nobody smoked the hibiscus plant. My dad just thought that Paint thinner in a gatorade bottle was water, and it was hanging around in the garage.. So he decided to despose of it, and dumped it on my Mom's hibiscus plant thati s her baby..
SO sean, when does the wastegate get modified?

I'll be happy at maybe 18 or so for a while...

So Marc, was my O2 sensor any good?

We didn't use your sensor, only the LM-1. My sensor is good, its the LC-1 that is bad.

Cool!!! I wanted to go there but haven't made it yet. My friend Keith went there to camp for like a week and ended up staying for close to a month! Can't remember if that's the place he got a little lost and almost froze to death, maybe that was in AZ. Anyway...enjoy! :-D :pics: Sorry to post like this in yur thread Hank.
You seem to travel a lot, not that it's any of my business. But do you mind if I ask what you do for work? You're not a hitman are you?

Be careful and watch out for falling arches. One just fell 4 days ago and it was one of the popular ones.
