I would be down for getting my car dynoed in KC. Are you any good at adjusting idle? She likes to fluctuate a fair amount since the new cams. It is better after some adjustment but still needs work. It seems to be worse with this cold weather.

Yes, depending on the cams of course....sometimes with a really aggressive cam the stock ecu has a really hard time compensating. What are you setting your target idle at? If you are trying to target the same idle as stock with the bigger cams it just won't do it and stumble and fluctuate.

Sounds good, also let people in NE know that in the future there may be an EcuFlash training of some sort put on by John Bradley here on the forums, that's his SN. The original person that started it is from Witchita, you might find a search for a thread about it on here, MWE, KCSR, KCSubaru, etc.

kcevo thank you for your response I actually have a new tuner that is working with me on the idle as of yesterday. So far it is getting much better. However, once I get her running good I still would like to come down and get dynoed. I would like to get a baseline with my current mods. When Kevin aka Big Ballin decides to come down to KC I will probably make the trip with him.

This is true. I wanted to make my point and didn't want to post anything else in that post.
