Here is a video of the idle (tried to do boost/vac too but it was too dark)

So my question now is if i were to buy a data logging program, would it show me where something was off? Also, what would be a good program to purchase if so?

Thanks!

Exact same issue here. Haven't figured it out yet. Will update when I (hopefully) do. Lmk if you figure anything out before I do

I have had an idle oscillation on a few tunes which we could not figure out. Running IPF tune V60C1D, it will oscillate after hot. But will settle after a few seconds most of the time. I'm running a standard with stock headers. It seems the others I know running headers haven't had the oscillation ?

Man a surging or bouncing idle would drive me crazy.

Nutbutt · 04-20-2015, 08:34 PM

Any updates on your idle oscillation ???

13blackLS · 04-20-2015, 11:28 PM

Waiting to hear back from ipf, i kinda feel bad buggin them, but i figure for 4-500 bucks for the tune i can bug them a few times lol...car is back to stock right now til i get anything from ipf...good thing is im getting real good with putting on and taking off the supercharger, hahaa

I have headers and whatever tune I'm running I haven't had any issues. only issue I seem to be having it the car prematurely releasing boost under loaf before shifting or the engine reducing power (not a reduce power light just feels like it's choking) J&M suspects it to be the torque management on the car cutting the power. can't wait for the HP tune and get rid of ipf

What's the current status of HP Tuners getting a solution for us LLT's with tuning issues? Last I remember they had a decent beta going.

Probably no more will be developed

Does the oscillation go away or get better when you turn on the AIr Conditioning ? The extra load should help.

13blackLS · 04-22-2015, 04:57 PM

I tried that and it honestly didnt make a difference...if i give it gas it goes away for a bit, but will also start stumbling with the gas...im wondering if it has anything to do with spark or gas...

The PLX Boost Sensor Module I just got in the mail did not come with a T fitting. Do you know what the diameter of the vacuum line is?
On that note, do you know what the gray "termination jumper" wire is and where I am supposed to connect it coming out of the module?

MagnumForceGB · 07-03-2015, 08:08 AM

1/8" for the vacuum line I believe. You can always take in the old one to O'Reilly's and compare it to the ones they have to see for sure.

The termination jumper isn't a wire, its a small black plastic piece with metal contacts in the side, very small. You place it on the last box in a daisy chain if you have more than one so the sensors can talk to each other.

djrasras · 07-03-2015, 08:03 PM

So if I am not connecting the afr module and boost sensor module together, just don't do anything?

MagnumForceGB · 07-03-2015, 08:29 PM

Yeah
