After much debate I decided to go with the Gonzo Tune stage 2(http://www.gonzotuning.com). Talked to the guy and it sounded great. So I sent off my ECU, paid the man and got it back. My issue is now that when I put it in(naturally opened the door and popped the hood and left it in run to align the TB) and started my car it didn't do a whole lot of starting. It sat at 200rpm and then died. Then it wouldn't start unless I put my foot in the gas. The tune also came with launch control set at 4K and its only supposed to work when the clutch is pushed in. Well it works in neutral at 35k. I decided to try and keep it running and take it around the block. Throttle response was spectacular but its only boosting to 4psi and not doing anything past there. I let it sit for 2 days and when I started it today it puffed white smoke like a chimney. My car was running fine before I sent my ECU in so what the crap? I emailed Gonzo and told him everything it was doing and this was his response:
"Scan the car. A flash wouldn't make it run like that. You most likely have a hardware issue."
Surrriously?????!!?!? Real helpful dude... Its not throwing ANY codes.
More recently all I did was put BKR7E plugs in, gapped to .028 since I was getting a tune, and revision D coils. (Thanks MikeWire) Changed the oil and went from a green spring to a yellow spring in my Forge 007 to accommodate for the 21psi.
Now what I did do when I ordered the tune was get an EVAP delete. Although I haven't actually taken out the EVAP yet I plan to eventually I was just planning ahead. Issue?
In conclusion am I frickin' insane and do something stupid or does it sound like this tune is garbage?
As always, thanks for any input guys!
