BIP tune with george's car this morning
My buddy George on here had to go back to the clutched pulley for a few tune issues. So I loaded the first bip file logged it called tony and he emailed me a airfuel adjustment right away and we were done. As always a fast easy Process for doing things remotely. We did not have time to dyno this morning but I will get his car on the dynojet for some numbers.

Shardul told me today that Jerry at EC has perfected the tune for the fixed pulley as of yesterday. I have a smaller clutch pulley and am thinking about going fixed but am afraid of the issues. Has anyone heard about EC fixing the issues?

Denroll, I loved the 77mm fixed pulley. instant power, could be crusin in the city mash the pedal and breaks the tires loose and a little whip lash with no problems. the throttle response is unbelievable. The issues are codes thrown p0105,p0106 and going into limp mode. after that happens I shut it off wait a minute or two. start it back up and all is fine no codes and abck to whip lash. but after driving it a couple days right back to limp mode and codes again. so unpredictable that I desided to go back to cluched 83mm.

I love the idea of a fixed pulley. My issues were not the same as Denrolls.
No codes ever
My issue was: As soon as I hit full boost (17psi) id go into limp mode
Also had major cold start issues. It would surge and hunt for a while. Denroll found that if you just put key in position 2 for 30 seconds, the cold start issue would go away. So my only issue was limp mode. Denroll has been running fixed pulley since he installed 6 - 8 months ago. Never came off.
If the tune does ever get sorted out, Ill be back on a fixed pulley faster that you can say: Hey Shardul, can I get an 83mm pulley overnighted, good buddy!!!???
