I'm not disabling traction control in the above tutorial. We're in agreement about maintaining full TCS functionality in the tune- if you want it off, use the button.

Have to agree with Ted that 88% duty cycle is way too high. At 88% there's not much injector overhead left. No way of definitively knowing if it was the ultimate culprit, but I'd say it's a pretty...

Just clean the thing. It's easy. Just don't go apeshit and oil the crap out of it, or you might end up having to clean your MAF sensor afterwards.

A lot of tuners will just copy over the high spark advance table to the low one. It's not necessarily wrong, but it shouldn't be a routine step in every tune they do. A proper low spark advance table...

You can't delete a table from the PCM with a tune. You can give the low table the exact same numbers as the high table (effectively disabling it), but you can't remove it.

You can also do your datalogging for a remote tune while you're on a dyno. Dyno tuning vs. remote tuning isn't a real argument. It's tuning in person vs. remote tuning.

The codes he listed are all for the rear O2s. They are the codes that would be thrown if the rear O2 sensors completely failed, or if the sensors were removed but the codes weren't tuned to not fail.
