What boost levels are people seeing with the GH AO tune?

[MHW100]

My experience has been that Matt's a pit bull at getting the tune right. He will keep going revision after revision. You're in good hands. This can be a time consuming process so patience is required I've found so hang in there Matt will get it done.

Has anyone syphon day their tank before? Any tips would be greatly appreciated!!

Gas tastes terrible, bro. Run what you have through it, stay out of the boost, refill when you are down to 1/8th tank.

I don't think it's even possible. I bought an 8' long 1/2 heater hose and couldn't get to the gas there must something blocking it to prevent gas theft especially since there's no way to put a locking cap on it.

Geezus, man...you been suggested like 15 times what you should do. If you're not going to take people's advice...why ask for it?

Well, I have taken their advice 1.5 gal of E85 last night, however, I really didn't want to wait on driving enough to burn up the fuel. What's the big deal that I wanted the ****** gas out of my car? I could have had it out last night had the hose got into the gas, not have to wait a week. Yeh, I'm impatient to get this resolved and I don't understand why this bothers you so much? I dropped a $hitload of ca$h and spent a lot of time R&Ring the parts and I have to granny drive it until it burns half a tank.

We get a fair number of folks who post asking for help, but then they already know everything and don't take the help.


As for the gas siphoning...try having someone who can suck harder...any prostitutes in the area?

Get with Matt, have him write you an always on lpfp tune, take the fuel line off the hpfp and pump it into a tank of you absolutely cannot wait

Or to save the $50 and not catch any kind of disease he could put the car up on jack stands and put the car on cruise control and let it just run all night long, kinda like on ferris bueller.

I was actually thinking about doing that when I was trying to sleep last night, do I need a tune? I was thinking that having the key on would just pump it since it will never build up any pressure.

It's not a matter of sucking harder, it's a matter of not being able to get the hose into the gas. And I don't siphon by sucking, if you take three to four deep breaths and exhale into it while sealing the neck with a dense rage and put your thumb over the hose to keep the pressure in every time you inhale again it builds up enough pressure to flow like a garden hose.

You need a tune. It won't continue to prime.

May I suggest parking it on the nearest train tracks. A decent size train should purge the tank and BONUS: You don't have to worry about driving it like a granny or nothing. No waiting for the lines to clear. Simple and easy.

Theres also the alternative, you can listen to experience and relax.

If you are married you probably get tied up and left in a room for weeks a lot. Just saying.

 

[Mike67]

just put 1.5 gallons of e85 on top of it. first thing I would do is find out what % your e85 is. you can buy a cheap ethanol tester off amazon for 20 bucks. You also can look at the long term fuel trims if it gets over 1.20 your a bit high on E

I did a search on Amazon for a tester kit and some had ****** reviews. Does anyone have a recommendation on which one they have used and liked?

Thanks

Matt sent me a tune. Thanks for the recommendation, I can't wait to get that crappy fuel out.

This is what I do. A little more involved but very precise...

First time I ever filled with e85, it tested at actually only 64%...way below the required 70%. Was wondering why it ran like crap, next station I went to had some that tested at 83%, way better...

Problem with my method...not being done right at the pump before fill-up, so any of those Amazon ones should get ya by just fine...this test just let's you know a bit more precisely if you were curious.

EDIT: Just realized....you might not have the patience for this type of testing....disregard my suggestion.

 

[Angrymongoose]

Ok, its probably not a single bad batch of gas you got. The 93 near you probably isnt actually 93, and more than likely youre gonna have to add a couple gallons of e85 to each fill up.

Thats exactly what I have to do in order to keep my oar where it should be.

I just wanted to point that out so youre prepared when draining this tank doesn't end up solving all your problems.

doesn't have to be to the nut. fill water to the line fill gas to the to line shake and let sit for a minute tune upside down one more time and done. I take a water bottle clean and dry and pump the gas in it and use a second water bottle with water in it to fill it. the gas pump nozzle fits in a water bottle just fine so you don't get it all over you.

You can get pretty close results data logging and monitoring if you have hptuners access. I get around 81 to 83% Ethanol at random sheetz locations all over a few states.
Idk if sct has any capability though.... It's extremely outdated.

 

[Mike67]

I ended up getting the pro kit since it's laser etched and not a decal. A lot of reviews for the other ones complained about the stickers coming off, upside down or the ink getting melted off. A little more $$ but I'd rather buy something that will last.
