Hey vandy0419---->> You ging back to INTENSE for them to check your car?? We have the EXACT same numbers, mods, and problems.

Edit: I'm going to buy HP Tuners if INTENSE walks me through the tuning, and helps me fix the problem

vandy0419

I don't know, I think I'll just use my money to go in on HP Tuners and get someone's tune flashed on it that no one has had problems with.

M88ArRamadi

I have the original GM flash and thought of doing that. I decided that I should learn how to tune.

vandy0419

I'm going to ask around some people I know and see if they know of any differences between the RL and Cobalt flashes...

M88ArRamadi

that sounds good.....I'm going to do the same for now

vandy0419

Well talked with a few guys on the RL forums and it ends up INTENSE doesn't do much with the VE table and that is what everyone else is changing almost immediately.

I was under the impression that the VE table only comes in to use if the maf fails....

I'm buying HPT tomorrow depending on scott or todd's response. WOW that crap is expensive. 650+shipping

vandy0419

I'm fortunately going in on it with 3 other people so its less than $170 each

CobaltSS422

is that for the Pro version?

vandy0419

Yeah...there you can hook up a wideband and it will read it out on HP Tuners...

Alright INTENSE though I might be over-reving the sc and recommended me to down grade to a 2.6" or 2.7". SO.........I bought a 2.6" pulley and ......even worse than I thought ..... 14 psi!! I removed ALL parts of the stage 4 checked them and re-installed them. I, once again, ripped apart and re-installed the sc and by-pass valve.

Before the downgrade I COMPLETELY bypassed the by-pass valve. I went for a quick ride and my car **** it-self. Said something like "torque managment power reduced" I had NO POWER and shitty idle. I shut it off waited a minute and turned it back on. I was able to make it home. The car felt like it had Hella power UNTIL I went WOT.

Try running a compleely stock air box for one
pull s/c and clean all gasket mating surfaces
ensure no belt slip...check idler and pulley for dust
Run a manual bypass on s/c

if its hitting limp mode im betting its something to do with ur airbox

1. I have a completely stock airbox....I had to remove the air-box mod because I was getting the LEAN code when I first got the s-4.

2. I've removed, tore apart, cleaned, inspected, re-assembled, and installed the sc 3 times now.

3. No belt slip.....no squeaks or black dust (have GM S-2 belt)

4. Ran a manual boost by-pass ... little to no difference
