After I did my 3.4" swap I ran the car for a week on a stock tune... Didn't hurt it at all. Didn't even knock much. Tunes are only REALLY needed when you start making changes like injectors, MAFs, Gears, stuff like that. A tune at any time can help though.

looks like i might be attempting to tune it myself.

I am not sure if its worth the $100 to deal with maybe preventing a check engine light from maybe coming on.

**91parkave** · 03-09-2015

Yea, cause driving around with a system to lean code is what all the cool kids do

**chris99gtp** · 03-09-2015

Considering getting an e85 tune from zzp due to time constraints.

What fuel pump do you have?

**chris99gtp** · 03-09-2015

Stock

Significantly bigger problem then a check engine light if you ask me. My stock rewired pump didnt come close to giving me enough fuel.

Considering a fuel pump rewire. Thoughts on zzp's tune?

Canned PCM?

Might as well just put a 2.5" on your car now.

Go flog it.

See what happens.

Same thing.

On a stock pump? That's the same scenario DH says wasn't giving him enough fuel:

Not sure if it's "proper" but I'm running an AEM 50-1200 on stock wiring. Seems to be doing fine.

Your stock pump with a good rewire will provide plenty of fuel.

I'm not even going to read this entire trainwreck.

I considered driving the V with only a 2.85 pulley (stock is 2.95) for all of 10min before i decided to QUIT BEING A RETARD.

Same principle applies here.

I would run new wires through the sending unit. I basically have a stock honda fuel pump running my stuff now and it seems to work ok with 10 gauge through the sending unit. My old pump had 200k miles on it when i swapped it out for a walbro 400 that died a few weeks ago and i replaced the walbro with something i had laying around.

I rally crossed my gtp.. over a mile track and i was basically hot lapping the last few runs... not a single hint of kr misfire or lack of performance. Narrowband was always around 900-920.

Im still confused why you people are so quick to deny logic and hard proof over your wannabe theories.

My 180k mile stock non venturi pump with a Casper's rewire has no problems as long as the tank is at least 1/4 full.
