Launching my car = failure

[JEWC_Motorsports]

I thought it said he had deletes? Either way, datalogging is easy. It would tell the tuner what is going on with the car instead of us guessing.

I will do that.

Here is the issue with the CMCV delete plates... When I have the 87 octane tune loaded, nothing is wrong, and it drives great besides the issues from the OP. But when I load the 93 race tune, the CEL comes on and the code is for the CMCV delete plates, but i didn't notice anything wrong with the way it drives.

There is something wrong with your traction control!
You aren't supposed to be getting the light in the dash when it's OFF.

We are all assuming he's turning the traction control off. Maybe we need to verify this tiny bit of info before going any further. I've seen people do worse.

I am turning the traction control off manually everyday. If I tried launching with traction control on it would jerk like a whore when the tires break loose.

I'm going off this...

No ceL... When I tried programming my traction control off it would give me the traction control light on the speedometer too.

Sounds like he gets the light in his dash despite pushing the TC button off to me? but maybe I read it wrong.

No, I push the tcs button and no lights come on except for the one on the button itself. When I program the tcs off, the light on the dash comes on.

That is normal, when I turn TCS off in program, dash light is on.
I do that at strip so I don't have to think about it.

What kind of mods are on the car and when you loaded the tune, did you change anything with the idle RPM? I had the exact same problem last year. I have the Brenspeed cams and got a tune from BAMA for them. The idle rpm was to high and you could not hear the cams, so I lowered the idle rpm during the loading of the tune. When doing that the car would bog down constantly. I thought Bama did not know what they were doing and went to Brenspeed for their tune. Same thing with them though. I then asked them about the idle rpm and asked them to program the tune for the lower rpm. Once they worked out the correct rpm, so that it would not stall on me, I did not have anymore bogging issues. So, it could very well be a tune issue you are experiencing.

Jlt series 2 intake, CMCV delete plates, and a off road x pipe. This issue is only when trying to launch.

It helped a lot when I loaded the 93 octane tune.

[itsslow]

Have you datalogged it yet?

Never had the time.

I realized, but I have been so busy with another car, I forgot about mine. Is there a reason why you are in a hurry?

 

[JEWC_Motorsports]

Im not in a hurry, its your car. If you dont care enough to heed the advice given dont come here asking for help.

Lol, it's been a few days since you told me to datalog it, not months. I am not sitting on the couch and watching tv, I have a job and go to school, get home at around 7 everyday and spend the rest doing homework and studying. You should calm down a little.

 

[JEWC_Motorsports]

Calm down, i am calm. Well hopefully your not leaning your car out with a vacuum leak at the delete plates. If your shit goes boom you will realize you shouldnt have waited.

I am not even driving the car, but I appreciate your concern.

Dataloged the tune and sent it to them. They re-wrote the tunes to see if there was a corruption in the first set of tunes they sent. Also sent me another configuration file if it still does it after the fresh tune. Going to load the tunes once I get home and give it a shot.

Good luck
