Stratified Automotive Custom Etune

Not those bolts, the center bolt of the BFI mount. If you have the insert style on the trans, I wouldn’t bother checking that one.

 

[Subliminal]

this one right?

 

[El_bigote_AJ]

Yup, when you first installed it was the center section tweaked/twisted/cocked to the base and top the same way it is in the photo?

 

[Subliminal]

Yes, that's actually a pic from the install and i had asked before if that was normal and was told it is. Still looks the same

 

[Subliminal]

I assume the MAP sensor install is just a simple swap, nothing else needs to be done right? (disconnect battery, spin around on right foot 3 times, etc)

 

[Diggs24]

You need to tune for it, but yeah simple swap.

You're a tooner right, can you help me with that? I pay handsomely in gratitude

It’s not a higher reading sensor, just a stock replacement one… daks fooled him into just shot gunning parts at the car to diagnose the selective part throttle stumble he mentioned above.

 

[Subliminal]

"for shits and giggles" he told me

 

[Diggs24]

ok. try not to break the clips

 

[Subliminal]

Ok, went for a drive and car felt good

installed map sensor (clips survived), reinstalled old rs7 plugs with 7k miles on them, swapped coils around - noticed when tightening the bolts one of them doesn't tighten down, maybe it was coming loose and causing the issue? Probably not(?) but would explain why the issue went away for a while after installing the grounding kit.

 

[Subliminal]

Also noticed one of the ruths gap closed to ~0.021, wanna say they were 0.024" when I installed them ~5k miles ago, installed the RS7s at 0.026"

I said just to check it

 

[Subliminal]

Found I have a new code (no light): U112E/431A, which appears to be "lost communication with throttle position sensor" - might be the cause of the power stumble? Will try resetting it later w/ obd11. Doesn't really explain (to me at least) why it gets worse as the car gets hotter but worth a shot

Anyone running/try Stratified's 87 octane stage 2 tune?

Interested as I am planning a cross country road trip and most likely won't have access to the normal 91/93 at certain points.
