These are the types of issues that worry me when it come to remote tunes and matching up on the street or on another shops dyno.

Then again, I have no experience with tuning.

I think that depends on the tuner. Mine was awesome. If there was something he didn't like or something I didn't like, he went back and fixed it.

All I know is Moncef from Admin Tuning knows a hell of a lot more than I do about this stuff.

But I cleared and reset the ecu, nothing else, and he said it’s on point again, and the car is apparently making small adjustment after small adjustment to the fuel and eventually (after 6-8 weeks) getting way too lean. But once the cache is cleared and it’s running strictly off his tune again, it’s fine.

So we’ve got to figure out why. The pcv is where he wants to start... I know that blow by can lower your octane levels and make the car do some weird stuff. So maybe it has something to do with that.

As far as touch ups and helping afterwards, he hasn’t charged me a dime. But has always responded same day, and told me to send him logs whenever and he’ll always look at them.

With my previous tuner, everything was covered up to a year, then you had to pay for a retune.

Anyway, gonna try a delete and see what that does.

somebody has an AN adapter for the breather side now as well. Might be Royal Performance but not sure. I saw it on book of faces a few weeks ago so there is a 0% chance of ever finding that post again.

I can't wait for that day for me again. It is close.

Should’ve posted my new exhaust pictures here but I guess both threads is ok. XD

Anyway, got the new Tomei and Z1 test pipes on today. No more exhaust leak, but couldn’t hear them even if there were any. This set-up is stupid loud.

Killed it. Or rather had it killed.

I finally installed the yaw-sensor rocker switch modification today. On top of that, I diagnosed the issue with the air-bag light flashing, and the wires for the passenger light connector were yanked out (whoops). So I'll just measure the resistance needed and substitute a resistor for the actual light since fixing that connector is more effort than bypassing it. Quick note about the Yaw sensor switch, If you want to re-enable the sensor, you need to have it in the ON position before starting the car. Otherwise, it wont work or clear itself out.

I have a new fog light I got from Z1 a while back, but I need to re-buy the mounting hardware as I have no idea where it went. (likely the recycling center with the rest of my stock parts.) I have a three-way rocker switch for that one (on-off-flash)

Mounted some PIAA sport horns. Haven’t tried them on the road yet, but I’m definitely loving the sound. Sounds like trumpets instead of sounding like someone farting into a pillow.

If you need a resistor let me know. I have some extras laying around from when I installed my racing seats.

Well the problem is finding the appropriate resistance across the passenger light module, not the airbag itself. My multimeter won't read it (registers "overloaded") So I'll have my dad (licensed electrical engineer) check it out and see if I'm just an idiot or if there is something else I'll have to do.

Alternatively, if someone has a spare clip with the wires intact, I can just make a new connection.

Today it's parked at home because I remembered how much I hate the attention it draws.

Installed my eps pcv delete today.

I feel like I’m getting too much blow by.

Changed my wiper blades, new rain x quantum blades, and filled my reservoir with rain x bug off stuff. Didn’t say on here but about 3 weeks ago I changed my windshield out, no more cracked windshield! (Had been about a year) and safelite replaced it with a fuyao brand which even though it’s chinese, it’s supposed to be really good quality. Also it’s supposed to be much lighter than the stock windshield... I don’t know how much, but every bit counts right?
