ZFG Racing Tune Review

[Combatvet]

I also got a weird message saying the oil need to be changed, but I just had that done a couple of weeks ago. Weird.

Your oil minder wasn't reset when the oil was changed.

That couldn't be the case because it was at 97% the other day. I think something in the tune did it, so I just reset it myself. Thanks for making me look into it more though.

Question for those who have their '25 tuned.

Did you throw a CEL? Mine threw a P0315 - Pending, Current, Permanent
Crankshaft Position System Variation Not Learned.

Did you experience hard shifts from 2-3, 3-4 at Wide Open Throttle in Sport Mode?

Wow did it wake it up, can't wait for the final tune.

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.

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.

I had a very brief knock when logging my initial tune. Since my final tune I have not heard a knock ever. I’m guessing something went wrong with the log. It’s a pretty straightforward process so I’m a bit surprised.

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?

Can’t remember but I thought I named them. One was a 3rd gear pull and the other was a 1/4 mile pull.

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.

Man, that WOT 1st to 2nd shift is bruuuutal!

I logged mine with the knock and reported it in notes. The knock wasn't nasty, only when starting off at the low RPM in 3rd gear.

Yes, the 1-2 shift is full send.

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.

 

[Combatvet]

Probably won't get an answer until after the 27th, at least that's what they state on their website Closed 23rd-26th.

I figure that's when I'll get my modified tune.

 

[Combatvet]

Scratch what I just said above, ZFG just responded with an updated tune. They want another 3-4 pull, quarter and 0-60. Talk about smiles for miles.

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?

Hell, mine took about 10 seconds once I hit start before they actually started logging (loading services). Then stop logging and sync.

There is a noticeable lag from when you hit the start to data log, from when the gauge icons pop up, I couldn't guess why yours didn't work, but pull into a parking lot, hit data log and wait for the gauges to pop up. I don't know if that even addresses your issue though.

 

[Gadgtfreek]

Yeah, I pulled over kinda on the side of a 4 lane. Hit start logging, waited for all this nonsense to happen, and when it was finally logging, I got out and did my run.

Anyone know anything about this unit and Company…?

Pretty much the wrong thread to be talking about another manufacturer's tuning device. This thread was to discuss ZFG's tune.
