^ I honestly can't recall. I've done about 25 different calibrations with him and he fixes 1 little thing at a time. So the little progressiveness of increased HP is very subtle from tune to tune. But I can definitely say that the car is running much much much more smoothly than before. Before my engine would drone going 20 mph on campus but now its straight quiet and you can her a very very subtle growl from the cheap exhaust lol

One of my wheel locks went missing... Looking at the stud it was a little stripped (I could see some metal threads sticking up) so it could have been improper installation by discount tire or someone actually took 1 lock off. Do you think discount will pay for the replacement?

BaoZZeR

Update: Vit said my tuning is complete but he only made minor changes to what I posted before. I'm asking him if he wouldn't mind giving me a comparison of MY car w/o tune a with tune to see MY gains. After that I will ask him for another chart for my car with stock rims. Hopefully we can blame my power loss on the wheels and not my engine...

Just for the people who didn't know, Vit charges a monthly subscription to his eDyno service but I'm trying to get a few graphs for free lol.

iCrap

So.. do you think it was worth it?

ssjoeboe9

I think thats what the graphs will determine ^^

Car looks sweet! Mind if i ask what you're lowered on..

BaoZZeR

BaoZZeR

BaoZZeR

Just remember this is a Edyno not a wheel dyno to really see what it is doing put it on a dyno you said it runs much better return the car to stock tune and drive it guarantee you will feel the difference Vit is one of the best k series and flashpro tuners around go on the civic 8th & 9th gen forums they will tell you about Vit

BaoZZeR

^ The last graph is stock vs tune.. he said that's the best he could do

iCrap

did you find out if it was just because of your wheels?

UTAH TSX

It's computer dyno not the real thing if you want real HP numbers put it on a dyno it would be interesting to see the results

BaoZZeR

^I did research and the M3 lost 23 HP after getting 20" vossens. I'm doing a stock wheel run tonight and lets hope we see some promising numbers. Still not interested in keeping it though since I don't plan on getting anything smaller than 20s for this car.

UTAH TSX

This is a 2012 civic si exact same engine as ours you should be about the same his car had intake and exhaust that was it

BaoZZeR

Yes Vit thought so too. My stock seems about right for stock but I have so many mods.

BaoZZeR

Looking around ebay for dumb parts to put on my car, ran into these:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/HIC-Acura-TSX-09-11-Window-Visor-Smoke-JDM-Style-uard-Deflectors-Injection-Mold-/170748465886?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&fits=Year%3A2009%7CModel%3ATSX&hash=item27c166d2de&vxp=mtr
Seem to be Mugen styled visors with the chrome trimming I like. Thinking about grabbing these since the chrome on my visors are flaky as hell but it might happen to these as well. Thoughts?



Edit: NVM it's just the glare from the light lol

its one of your MODS.......maybe that junk exhaust. or something else.

and then the 20's dont help.

i dont see selling the tuner. he can only adjust whats there.

if speed is the ultimate goal then remove all the performance mods and tune it, then add them one at a time and see which work .

unless the speed was just a nice to have then sell the tuner and buy some bling.

I have similar visors to those already.

yeah i thought you needed some new ones cause the old were peeling/ so i shared a link to the ones with chrome.


just saying.

iPad mini install pics later today

opboarding

Where are all your radio buttons going?

ssjoeboe9

In for pics!!!

BaoZZeR

Huh? I won't need those anymore. Im just going to have music play directly from the iPad so I won't have to go through bs wiring

ssjoeboe9

Uh where are the pics???

BaoZZeR

April fools! Pics will come whenever I have time to go through all the wiring to reposition the stock radio in the truck or something to keep the iPod features.

opboarding

True, most of the buttons you won't need. But what about switching the input from radio/bluetooth/usb? Or changing the clock time? Or wanting to change the oem equalizer(there might be one on the ipad I don't know). Or enter your radio code if you disconnect your battery?

I guess you can live without all these things as long as you set them once and they don't somehow get reset. Just don't unplug your battery.

BaoZZeR

Yeah i was thinking to set it and forget it but you raise a good point if i ever have to reenter the code. Maybe if i can shave off some excess stuff, I can jam it into the armrest. or better yet, the glove box

iCrap

Wait so are you really going to put an iPad in there or is it a joke? I wanted to do the same thing but I dunno how i'd relocate and keep the functionality of stock radio.

BaoZZeR

It's the plan but i don't have time atm. When I figure it out I'd be sure to write a DIY

opboarding

Yeah you could throw it in the glove box. Just cut and extend each wire like 3 feet and route to the glove box. It will be a huge pain to cut all the wires and extend though. Probably 30 wires total. It wouldn't need to be pretty, just in there in case you need to hit a button if something ever happens.

savclaude

have fun with all the wires.

BaoZZeR

That's nothing hard/anything i can't do. The hard part is reshaping the double din cutout to fit the ipad..

ssjoeboe9

I assume you have to cut away material rather than add material right? Cutting is sooooo much easier than adding

BaoZZeR

It's not that easy lol. i need to trim 20mm horizontally and about 35mm vertically. I will figure it out eventually, will need to work on my fiberglass skills

iCrap

The iPad dosen't fit? How big is the screen and opening? I had checked and it looks like my kindle fire HD or nexus 7 should fit perfectly.

BaoZZeR

I already mentioned the dimensions i need to trim lol. but i want the ipad to be positioned at an angle so i may cut less

iCrap

Yeah no I saw that but I was asking what are the actual dimensions of the opening?
