i swear i haven't done this before



i'm assuming since the dealership installed the GMTU, it should be covered somehow by them.

ORT

I'll have to call them. ******* cars man haha.

dcrep06

yea i think the GM tune has a separate warranty for like 3,000 miles or some ****, it said it somewhere in all the paperwork they gave me when i got mine way back forever and a day ago.

ORT

Ohhhh really? Ok I'll have to look into that!

dcrep06

I think so

rallycobalt06

heck, even a minimal 60 day warranty would be great, you got it done what? 2 weeks ago? not even.

ORT

Yeah itll be 2 weeks ago on friday. I honestly think its the tune I never had this issue before it. I should of bought a 5spd

rallycobalt06

i tried.....

dcrep06

Yeaaaaaa 5spd ftw

ORT

I like to be different. Who woulda known the auto tune would suck so bad.

dcrep06

Lol how does it suck?what dealer did you go to?

ORT

Read a few posts before. There's like s shut down mode that basically throws it into limp mode if it senses too much power/spin to the wheels so you don't hurt the trans. Freaking stupid. Only people with the gmtu seem to be having this issue with the auto. But I had it installed at nucar Chevy

dcrep06

Limp mode can happen to any of these cars I'm pretty sure. But nucar is the one on 13 right? I had mine done in Wilmington.

Currently trying to beat Mr. Foxwell to the LNF intercooler 50%. There will be massive fighting soon.

ORT

Yeah the one on 13. Its weird though cause it doesn't throw a code. shoots right up to about 22 pounds of boost then drops it. then when you give it gas again it only goes up to 3 pounds. Turn the car off then back on it runs fine.

dcrep06

I wonder if your bpv is sticking. Because the gms1 is only supposed to be 20psi. And I had that problem before I got the Forge bpv. And the stock plastic pos would stick open or close sometimes. Causing it to boost high, or barely at all.

ORT

oh really? Yeah its weird cause when it happens I can still hear the turbo spool but boost only shows 3 pounds. rather frustrating cause when it works the thing is ridiculous!

I wouldn't think its a leak because i feel like it would of been happening before and it wouldn't do it randomly. i could be wrong though.

All this being said....what BPV did you go with and did you need a tune?

dcrep06

I got the Forge bpv from modern performance that recircs so no tune needed. And oh, zzp has their 14.5" brake kit on sale for like 420

ORT

Nice ok ill have to look into that. I saw the brakes and told matt about it thats funny. Still think i'm going to go with just new rotors and pads. that is so cheap though! I really want there intercooler and charge pipe to go on sale. I dunno what to do!

is it this one?

may just order that and the charge pipe and call it a day i'm freaking tired.

dcrep06

Well brakes are going back up in price. But yes,that is the bpv. Sounds better too.

ORT

Ordered it! Matt said something about using wawa gas too. Ill try going to shell see if that solves the problem. If thats the case these LNFs are much more sensitive then I've heard about haha.

Who wants to help me install all these parts in the spring?!?!?!!?

dcrep06

I use wawa gas and bjs gas, no problems here. But I'll help out, I've done it all lol. And if I get this house in Pike Creek,I plan on having a lift soon after

ORT

Well thats just awesome because that happens to be like 5 min from my house. haha I may be keeping in touch good sir!

dcrep06

Lol, sounds good to me. Even if I don't have the lift by then it still won't take long. Where do you live?

ORT

off limestone road across from stanton middle school. like 30 seconds from the wawa and bww. and yeah i hear that most mods aren't too bad its just taking the bumpber off and going from there.
