I would never boost a car without having a wideband installed or, at a very minimum, getting it checked at a dyno occasionally. It only takes a couple of lean moments to make your engine go boom.

The e-manage ultimate is LOCKED. To get it tuned they have to erase the entire map and start from scratch. This could take many many hours. Could possibly cost you many hundred dollars.

Is that true? I would think that Greddy has allowed at least a little room for fine tuning the base program that it comes with.

actually, breaking in the clutch involves not being in one particular rpm for a long time. It's actually healthier to be in a lot of RPM's during break in time, so it'll break in even all over the surface.

your tune is wrong, your WOT map is too rich. What does your wideband read?

first thing you should be doing is checking for boost leaks
