Exactly. Most people think that a simple bolt on is going to require a whole new tune, which typically is rarely the case.

A good thing to invest in is a third party monitoring system so you can check your fuel trims and other various things. The android app works pretty good, so does the dash hawk.

Yea, I have an ultragauge that I usually hook up when I put in a new mod and monitor things. If things look normal I'll either not send anything or send a log but not care about the response since I'm expecting an "all looks good." It's when things are thrown out of whack that I would want an update asap. But luckily, with my bolt-ons that hasn't happened.

We need to either move this thread to the LFX section or start a new threads relating to all the off topic discussions in this thread lol

I am callin my local dyno in the next week or so to find a free day to finally get a dyno tube set with Vince.

WOT LTFT's above 10 are a clear indication that the tune is off. although other factors can play into that like fuel mixture or possible vacuum leaks. but there is no sign of a vacuum leak given the numbers. a vacuum leak would throw the LTFT's off during idle/cruising but would show near 0 during WOT if the tune was correct.

to rule out any leaks though, try spraying ether around the base of the intake manifold, plenum cover & TB connection. won't take much either. this will help rule out any air leak(s). also check the PCV connection on the rear of the valve cover on the driver side, it connects to the Air Intake.

hope this helps to either rule everything out or resolve the issue. let us know what you find.

Thanks for the ideas, i will check those things out tommorow. im running a Vararam intake so i have a breather on the end of my PCV.
