    Was this also the case with the tranny prior to the tune?

    ZFG Racing Tune Review

    Just received Rev1 after I goofed up the data log and of course the holidays. New log will be sent in today for an update. I too do not want the shift overly harsh and wonder how long we should wait on adaptation before judging the firmness.

    ALL NEW Carbon Fiber Tips from Thermal R&D for the 3" Exhaust Systems!

    Yes it does appear to be a paint of some type. Fingers crossed it does not chip off. From what I understand, Thermal stands behind their product so reach out to them with any concerns.

    new Thermal 3 inch vs old Thermal 3 inch

    Hopefully the exhaust breaks in a bit for you. My 2.5 is not what I would consider loud but significantly louder than factory.

    I found out I was not waiting long enough. New logs submitted, thanks for the insight.

    ZFG Racing Tune Review

    I'm trying to figure out why my logs did not work. I hit start then wait a bit, it's like 3-5 seconds then hit it and once done I hit stop. Anything you do different?

    ZFG Racing Tune Review

    Yep, I hear it at low rpm even under 2500. I sent a text and email about logging with the current file and did not get a response about that but a response my files looked to be after I let off. I asked again about logging with the current file and the knock and have yet to get an answer.

    I’m at a standstill right now because I’m trying to get a response on whether I should log with the detonation or not. I wish there was a way to pay an expedite fee to get quicker responses.

    ZFG Racing Tune Review

    Agree very straight forward. I hit start, wait a few seconds for it to get ready, hit it, let off and hit stop. Anything I missed?

    ZFG Racing Tune Review

    I got an email saying there was no data on my log files. I am at a stopping point until I hear back from them as I have audible knock with the base file and hesitate to run more logs in that condition. Now I wait for a returned email or text.

    Cycle the ignitin and the light should not return. Yes the shifts on the base file in sport is too harsh initially, I did not leave it in long enough to allow adaptation because I had pinging with that file.

    The filter has capacity till the 5k change, swapping at 500 would not be necessary but no problem doing so. On mine I did a 1k, 2.5k and then will do 5k intervals. I ran by 500 before I had a chance. Once I get past roughly 10k miles (when break in materials slow), I'll be running FRAM...

    Congrats! Thermal or AWE are my choices for cat-back. Rear sway bar is an excellent way to reduce roll and help provide a more neutral turn in. J&L catch can is a good way to clean up intake air. Even with a factory stock tune, I would still install a larger intercooler but I understand that...
