03 lancer es Evo 8 build
I feel like (sometimes...not all the time) it would be worth my time just to let a pro tune it. GOOD LUCK, and I can't wait to see that bugger on the dyno. What do you say to someone before they get tuned, "Break a rod!" akin to "Break a leg!"?
"break a rod!!" hope not LOL! that made me legit laugh out loud at work lol
hey hornstar ricekillers is coming to austin soon its a huge car meet with free stuff

Bad news is I didn't get tuned bc I have the wrong version tephra mod, my version will not get the throttle hang issue solved so I have to switch roms and have it tuned from scratch and they didn't have time for that today
but Tuesday at 11 is my next date with the dyno, I think the rom ending with 2706 or some thing 06 is the bad one, 03lances , it's ur one!!!

Hmm strange I have not noticed any throttle hang. (Or its possible I dont understand exactly what the problem is) either way sorry to hear you could not get tuned. I have decided I will not be getting a pro tune ever, at least on this car. I am very happy with the full range of power I have right now and all my logs tell me I am still running very safe
Wait just a second. I am using that one I even just double checked to be sure and I am running 94170715 rom. Zulu either at some point you guys switched to another rom after I gave you mine as a template or the tuning dude looked at the wrong number.
ok wait im confused... why dont we just flash the stock evo 8 rom on our cars if it doesnt affect anything? just curious
and what rom should we use and what exactly is throttle hang?

I suggested the v7 roms for two good reasons:
1) They are highly defined
2) They have special features not available in stock form (IE knock light)

Well that's weird 03lances, I'm pretty sure u gave me ur rom where all the changes were already done correct? Hmm bc we didn't change to any other roms.
This is what throttle hang is......so it's time to boost and u punch it in 3rd, shift to 4th and coming up on 4500-5000 rpm, u decide to change to 5th...well u push the clutch in and instead of the rpms dropping, they stay up until u put it in 5th and release the clutch

Ok this is what I thought throttle hang was and I can say for sure I do not have this problem. as soon as I push in that clutch and let off the gas the rpms drop. I am positive the rom I sent you is the same 94170715. I have never used any other Tephra rom so its the only one I have with the necessary changes to run with our cars.
