Who wants to tune my car? :)

**patrick4588** · 08-30-2007, 10:41 PM

well i will have a new turbo setup soon and need a retune. it was tuned on stock internals and stock IM, and now im sleeved with forged internals (lower compression) and a new IM. i am down in warner robins and will need a way to get to wherever im getting tuned. so ill need a basemap or something because i really dont think my old tune will work. dont really want to give out full specs in the forum. pm me for details on the complete setup

No reputable shop will give you a basemap to get you by

what kind of car? if its a honda you can mail us your ecu an we can put a basemap on it if its already chipped.

**ATL86** · 08-31-2007, 11:15 AM

He has a GSR.

**Vteckidd** · 08-31-2007, 11:24 AM

i could email you a basemap, but you would have to have all the tools needed to upload that basemap to your ecu

**BLK JDM** · 08-31-2007, 12:59 PM

PM JOKB or go to www.JOKBD.com. He's a tuner in Warner Robins. He's well known in the honda community and has a turbo EK that runs 10s consistently as hell. He won the last Import Showdown earlier this year. He knows his stuff when it comes to tuning. People fly him out to tune their cars. I'd hit him up 1st.

**patrick4588** · 08-31-2007, 04:59 PM

yeah he tuned my car the first time. great guy. he is moving to ohio though : /

**scttydb411** · 08-31-2007, 05:25 PM

i'll be passing through wr tues or wed if you want me to burn a basemap for you. i can tune it for you as well. quite a few macon and warner robbins guys come to me for tuning.

feel free to call me if you want to meet me on my way back up from fla tue/wed.

**patrick4588** · 08-31-2007, 06:30 PM

were you with mainstream at import showdown earlier this year? im the guy that let you guys grab those parts off my car so you could make it past tech inspection.

I understand, still over 100 miles... seems like it would be worth the tow, even just a tow dolly, but that's just me -- they definitely know more than i do!

**patrick4588** · 08-31-2007, 06:58 PM

its not like i would be driving in boost on the way there. put put it the whole way.

scotty tuned mine and runs like a champ a yr later

**d16_turbo** · 09-01-2007, 09:26 PM

just get jason to burn you a new chip and put it in yourself

**patrick4588** · 09-13-2007, 04:16 PM

is there anyone who can tune emanage? i want to get rid of all my gauges and buy something that can give readouts for all of them. the only thing that seems to fall in that category is the greddy e-01. i need it read water temp, oil temp, oil pressure, and boost. the problem is that the greddy e-01 can only read these from the emanage. if anyone has any other suggestions for a tool/program/gauge that can read all these sensors, im all ears.

**joeblo** · 09-13-2007, 08:45 PM

In my opinion, if you put the time and MONEY into sleeving a gsr (which can be a bad machine), why you can't spend the money to get it towed to the shop where you get it tuned? Not trying to be an asshole, but no sense in risking the logevity of such a bad ass motor. Just my opinion. scotty @ mainstream tuned my boosted ls and still runs strong after about 7 months at 9.5psi stock block. Mad props, highly recommend!!

What he said plus he has helped me burn my own chips and figure out other things......I like the guy and he is always willing to help

datalogging ftw! i understand what you want but some of your guages need to stay. unless you have a display that can show you real time whats going on then you will need to keep some of what you got. wbo2, oil press, and fuel press for sure. you gonna run a boost controller? if not keep your boost guage. i read boost of the controller so thats why i sold mine. just a thought

**patrick4588** · 09-14-2007, 01:05 AM

yeah the plan is to have all the gauge readouts on the lcd screen in real time. the greddy informeter is exactly what i want. it plugs up to obd2 cars though, and mine is obd1. so i dont know how im gonna do that. i emailed greddy to see if there is a way to hook it up. also, do you guys have a suggestion for break in on the new motor? i mean i cant put the motor together and then just have it dyno tuned immediately. need to break it in first, so how would i do that without some kind of basemap?

**japan4racing** · 09-14-2007, 01:30 AM

good read right here:
