well, I know what youre thinking of wtf is coco? Dont worry I dont refer to my car as coco thats what I call my HPtuners tune file revisions of my camaro however lol

So it took a while, sat for a few months and the guys from New Era Performance came two days ago, we managed to solve the first problem within a few hours not saying it was easy but Ryan worked his magic and found a small wire that was causing the car to shutdown by killing the signal to about 5 critical sensors, MAP sensor being the main one.

The other problem was a misfire well which was cured by swapping out the plugs. Yup, had to get the guys all the way from NY to Dubai to swap out plugs, I changed the plugs 3 times over here, fiddled with different plug gaps, changed the wires, changed the damn couls, cleaned the injectors, did craploads of other stuff and all it turned out to be was a hairline crack in the porcelain.

Did a small blast today and

expect the long awaited video I promised of within the next few days!

Congrats...I'm glad your working out the problems with it. I dropped my car off at NEP last Monday and they said they were flying to Dubai, So because of you I have to wait to get my car tuned... Just kidding my friend.

Please post up the video soon with some good footage.

Also, how's that 1Le holding up over there?

Thats great news Ayousef. I'm glad you got the bugs worked out. One of these days I need to meet uyp with you so I can check out this beast in person. Have fun and try not to get to many tickets. Seems like the police have been more active lately.

Badbubba · 11-17-2013, 11:10 PM

Great, I believe at one point you wanted to get rid of the car due to the issues. Glad it workdd out.

Wow that's awesome. I have had a few overseas customers ask me to come over to troubleshoot/tune/install, this thread makes me think I should take them up on it some day. I bet it was really cool for NEP to get a change of scenery like that!!

Ron_Robinson1 · 11-23-2013, 04:23 PM

Well since my car is in their shop, I hope they get back soon. Hope you didn't work them to hard over there. You guys we're tuning a lot of vehicles by the looks of Facebook..

facebook doesn't do just, Mike was all over the place tuning and most importantly fixing all the cars before they even got a chance at a tune

Ryan had a good time though I hope, ask him for me when you see him, their flight leaves at 2AM on the 25th at +4:00 GMT
