Re: Whole Instrument cluster does not work with BCM codes!

Would I be wrong in saying that some of the IP cluster information is via a serial bus circuit?. Also, doesn't the IP cluster need to be VIN synced? This keeps people from swapping out IP clusters for a lower odometer reading. All of the modules need the VIN to talk to each other, including the radi...

Re: Hello from North Texas

My 2011 9C3 has a BTR Stage 1 cam, stock converter and 3.45 gears, tuned by Chris Henry Motorsports. It is drivable in stop and go traffic. It doesn't push against the converter.

Re: LFX WOT pre-programmed limit

Eric, I believe that with "drive by wire" and the stepper motor controlled throttle, we will see that. The computer knows that at the lower RPM's the motor isn't needing a physical WOT. It sees the request for WOT, but it is managing the request. The Mass Air Flow sensor knows a lot about ...

Re: Brian Tooley Red Hot Cam Help.

Jester, When I went with a BTR Stage 1 cam I worked with Chris Henry Motorsports. He is a member here. He had prior experience with this cam in the G8's. I used HP Tuners to upload the tune and to data log the results. (Having HP Tuners has come in handy for me to scan for codes, tire size changes o...

Re: Brian Tooley Red Hot Cam Help.

I would suggest that it needs to be tuned by someone familiar with the camshaft at least. The stock tune can't handle managing the new airflow in and out of the motor, the new converter is beyond the stock, tight transmission tune.

Here is what I did... https://www.newcaprice.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=1488&hilit=cts+brembo. We had to swap the lead/lag pistons around on these due to their brake bleeder orientation. Just search "Brembo' and there are a lot of threads that have already discussed this... Maurice

Re: Lugnut issues

It sounds like somebody replaced the factory lugnuts with aftermarket ones. The factory lugnuts were open with a threaded outer to attach the full size hubcap. Maybe try an SAE socket to find the right size?
