Hello. I'm hoping somebody can give me some tips on what to do next. My car is listed below. Recently just received a base tune from TJ Tracy from Advance Performance in Tenn to get my car running but it will not fire. I checked all sensors and everything is working as it should. Injectors are not firing so I increased the crankstart and it acts as if it wants to fire but won't. FP is set @ 39psi. Just wanted to know if someone would look at the file and give some recommendations. Stationed overseas in Germany @ Ramstein AB so the time difference is a hinderance right now. I haven't spoke w/ TJ this wk as he is in and out. If you need more info I'll be happy as best I can to answer anything. This is my 1st stab at the tuning realm. A lot more complicated than I thought but fun nonetheless. I have the DVD too in case anyone was wondering. I can email the .gct file to whomever would like it as I can't post it here since this is my 1st post. Thanks!

Confirm you have RPM when cranking and send me your GCT file and I'd be happy to look at it for you.
 
I'm sure Ted is taking care of you. If not send me a PM I don't need the .gct file, but I would like to know the date of manufacture of your XFI.
 
Cal PM sent. Ted I emailed you the file and I'll confirm that today. Otto J pm sent as well. Thanks guys I appreciate the support! I'll have to send ya some Brats or something. :D
 
Ted: No problem with the box.

Silas: PM sent.

One nice feature of the XFI are the LED lights
 
Did they have a problem with the boxes at some point? :eek:

I don't believe so. I just stumbled upon a thread somewhere on here or Turbomustangs stating that if you were running an XFI on an LT1 that you'd need the firmware for the opti so could function--I had to send it back for the upgrade.

A simple REFLASH wouldn't work? I was under the impression that the boxes never needed to go back to FAST, but they all need to go back every once in a while it seems. :cool:


There is a good bunch of guys over there on Turbomustangs.


PM sent.
 
Ted I thought the same thing but they said it needed to come back for this. According to the RMA they replaced the board w/ an LT1 style. The only thing that concerns me is looking at the actual sheet for "programmed area"
B2B is listed "n/a" and seq is listed w/ an "x" but then it says a little further down ignition type and there is says "LT1". I just look at the X as the one selected but it wasn't the case as when I go to start it lights up in b2b.

Yes the LED's are cool. :) Got the tune. Thank you! I'll let you know how it goes.
