Which Tune for Injen Intakes, FI LTH and CBE
 

I will have all 3 of these soon and am anxious to install them. Through reading from the posts installing all 3 could result in engine problems. After installing all 3 the engine needs to be re-tuned. My question is the Uprev tune that everyone is referring to; will that fix the issue of the engine running too lean? Is Uprev something completely separate or what should I do when I install these 3 parts? Thanks in advance for those that reply.

Title is VERY misleading. How about... "Which tune for Intake, LTH, CBE?"

You don't need a retune for those mods. The car will run a bit lean, but I personally don't think its enough to cause concern. The tune will fix it yes. Uprev is tuning software. You have to buy a license from UpRev and buy the tune. You can then install the tune into your car.

Honestly, I don't think those three mods will lean out the car enough where it will be a big issue, but then again, thats my opinion. It doesn't sound, from your choices in mods, that you are very tight on money, so if you CAN get the tune, definitely do it...someone else had very good results with it.

Will the car be too lean if I just have the F.I. LTH +18" CF exhaust?

Wow creating a thread cause we don't care to search is just being lazzzzzzzyyyy...

:drama:

My A/F was way off with intake, test pipes exhaust ... now it sits at 13.1ish the whole time at WOT... So to me it was worth it and some what neccasary...

Not to mention I picked up some power and tq as well...

And yea i went uprev, but cobb works too

No. Should be fine.

K, Thanks :tup:

Correct me if im wrong but the people who had their a/f ratios off with all the mods were all stillen g3 owners.. I believe youll be fine with the injens as they are tuned for safe a/f ratios.

Why is there always a schoolyard bully picking on the new guy? You could have at least put forth some effort and said, "Use the search function, newbie!"

:gtfo2:

:roflpuke2: I don't recall picking on him. I was helping him change the title of the thread so people would come in here and help him...

Don't you have anything better to do than be a "Search Nazi"? I think some of you guys just troll the forum for new members to s**t on.

:gtfo2:

Fair enough.

But really! People need to search for all the info they are interested in not post a thread and hope everyone's research comes to them. Thats just Lazy!

If you are getting headers or test pipes, you should get a tune. That's all....LoL
Other than that, it's useless to get a tune.

TT and SC is a different story...

On the bright side, it's been a while since I've seen someone post to ask how to reset their windows. Those are my favorite. :rolleyes:

I almost posted that this weekend after we unplugged my car from working on my headlights (and resetting something). :stirthepot:

Is this the 'Resetting your Window's' thread? I've had to disconnect my battery, and when I reconnected it, my windows don't automatically go up anymore! HELP! :confused:

You broke the window motor and now your warranty is void. Good Job foo :ugh2:

Look out guys I'm the "Search Nazi" maybe i can use that in my banner?

Damnit Forged~! :mad:

I got a few HP/TQ by plugging this in. The code was super long to punch in.

You mean its not the Mortal Kombat Final Moves?

XYYXAAXBBAXX^^>><< ?


:facepalm: No wonder my dyno numbers were off... Of course it didn't help I had it in reverse...

:bowrofl::roflpuke2::bowrofl:

OP use any tune you want UpRev or Cobb are the popular ones, damn 27 posts and no answer to his question lol

Can you not read? Several people responded...

The Injen intakes are "A/F ratio safe" ONLY if you use them on a stock car (with stock exhaust components). Since the OP will be running a CAI with a catless high flow exhaust then you definitely need a tune. My suggestion is Uprev in this case.

I'm curious, to those of you who have full bolt ons without a tune and saying he doesn't need one, have you done any dyno runs to verify that the AFR is within a safe range? Any datalogs to check the ignition timing?

My G has an Injen CAI, Invidia HFC and Stillen CBE. My AFR @ WOT without a tune is right around 14.0-14.2. Several runs with a datalogger showed that the ECU kept pulling the timing at WOT to prevent knock. Now how exactly does the OP not need a tune when he's running a catless setup?

There's a lot of V36 G's out there that have made really good gains (anywhere from 10whp to 30whp) due to Uprev tuning.

lol
