So got underthe car did a few tests but could not determine an exhaust leak. Taking the car to Billman on Monday and hopefully he can determine what's going on, eventhough when I spoke with him he seemed skeptical because there are no codes we can run.


Anyone else getting fed up with the pure inconvenience of the stand alone for 05 and under s2ks, bu doesn't want to loose the power or run too lean?

I would say your problem isn't really a problem more of an illusion. I'd reset to ecu, re-upload the map to re-do short term fuel trims and go from there. I say this because you don't have any symptoms relevant to actually running lean (i.e. stuttering, bogging, etc..)

Since you already checked the o2 sensor as well, I honestly think you have nothing to be worried about. If you had an exhaust leak, it would be showing a consistent number leaner no matter what throttle %

When you say reset the ecu, can elaborate? I have the haltech platinum 1000, and I have the map I can reload. Should I unplug it, plug it back in and reload the map? It does feel like an illusion honestly, but there's gotta be a reason for the gauge to go from one extremem to the other(10s to 17s), thanks for the help

You have a fuse box with an ecu fuse you can either pull or you can re-upload the map.

No, I have had no problems at all with my Kpro. Yes it costs more, but I don't have to deal with any bs when its time for emissions and it actually works.
