-1.8 knock is nothing, especially if you only get it here and there.I get -1.8 knock on a cylinder here and there, sometimes. Matt tapered it down to 7ish up top.

He’s suggesting rs3 brushless setup. In the meantime he’s gonna send me a 93 base file to get me through my trip and once I’m back home we can figure out which direction to go. So far the communication has been amazing compared to the other tuner where most questions were met with a single line response.PM4 and 535 should be able to hold it. Pretty easy upgrade at least. Bought mine from Summit.
This car has already been operation money pit lol.Well, yeah that is the better option. Much more money though.
Fingers crossed this year is better than last. also, fwiw I had to replace my LPFP recently, I was getting such low fuel pressure the car was hesitating to start as if the battery was bad. But of course I had replaced a bunch of other stuff trying to chance the issue.Well bad news. Matt says my fuel pressure is dangerously low. Perhaps that was the source of my issues on the other tune. My issue now is time. I’m supposed to be taking a road trip on the 16th.
Same experience here.And I just received my 93 base file. E85 is off the table until I upgrade my pump but he said as long as fuel pressure looks good we can start the 93 tune. Super impressed with the communication so far. I’ve gotten 5 emails in 2 days and all of it has been useful information in plain language. If you’re a technical nerd who does all your own work then you’re probably self tuning like diggs. However if you’re an enthusiast who doesn’t mind small work but leaves the heavy lifting to the pros then do yourself a favor and contact Matt at EQT. Thank me later.

I mean if you're going to go the brushless route, then I would get the brushless pump from PagParts. Definitely a better quality pump than the RS3 setup.He’s suggesting rs3 brushless setup.

The dual pump from PR will run you a total price of $1420.69, which is more, but not that much more, than the brushless from EQT but the dual pump will definitely have more headroom and be good for way more power than EQT's pump.If you already have a PM4 and want excessive head room would the dual walbro still be less $$$ than rs3 with controller? And def, have more headroom
