Wouldn't be perfect but itd be good enough to have fun and still go get a pro tune later. Also I got the HOOKUP on pricing with John which really made the choice unbeatable.

understandable but i'd be going nuts not being able to put my foot down after you did allllllllll that awesome work to get this done.

No link, I should probably take pictures next time we're working on it..

At the moment we've got the head off, everything taken off the block except the rotating assembly. Going to de-grease and flush the bottom end but not remove the rotating assembly (no reason to think it's bad so we're gonna leave it alone).

I'm going to be disassembling the head, completely cleaning that, doing some minor re-shaping on the exhaust ports (they have a big lump that intrudes into the port) giving the valve seats a quick polish and new seals.

We haven't decided if we're gonna slap cams on it or not...

Anyone ever see this? Car functions as usual. Came on while driving to lunch.

Fluids are good. Reset battery and it came on again right away. Scanning cels soon.

Is the plug for your sport mode button unplugged?

Holy crap! That's freaking awesome. Looking forward to some progress on that one. What are you going to put it in?

Ill check but I could still turn it on and off. Error would go away when off.

italy3541 07-29-2013 11:52 AM

That's odd maybe there is a problem with ur sport mode if it goes away when u turn it off maybe a tuning issue. Did the tune u did effect your rev matching?

It should not have. I will follow up. The car also does not want to turn off either. It takes a few button pushes.

Sounds like a communication error in your ecu.. I wonder what's causing it. Keep me posted on what u find out.

I may just reflash my tune tonight and see what happens. Not getting any strange codes other than the usual crap. Either a sensor is bad or its not communicating right. Smode still holds throttle on upshift but will not blip on downshift...idk. Sucks I am at work and cant really mess with it.

italy3541 07-29-2013 12:13 PM

I think it's something to do with the tune. It would be the only thing I can think of that would cause issues with the ecu making it not want to turn off when u hit the button. I would reflash it and see what happens. Could just be a glitch with the tune.

Perhaps. We shall know soon. Hopefully that's all it is. It is weird it came on after being good for so long. But hey. Welcome to aftermarket life haha
