it should get better the more you drive it give it time to adjust

It is in the mid 30s in Sydney atm so that doesn't help but I'll see how it goes and if it doesn't feel right I'll take it back on Friday to get it looked at but I get the feeling I need to buy a TIP to help cos I think that's restricting it a little

the stock TIP collapse under high boost so ive read but yeh you should replace that you will see a good gain from a new TIP

so hows the car going. does it feel any different from when you got the tune now u have driven it a bit

I found a noticeable gain when I changed the TIP on phase 2. I didn't change anything else at the time so it was purely the TIP that I was feeling. Wouldn't say it was a massive gain but certainly felt better between 3-5000rpm.Originally Posted by LZY13B

Well after driving it a bit I've noticed more torque over 3k but feels like something is holding it back so a TIP will most likely be next but it felt smoother on stage 1 with just the dump feels like it's running too rich with the 4 bar reg or something :/ I know it's only a 15% increase for stage 2 but was expecting a bit more of a kick and it doesn't fry the tyres in second really so I'm not sure what's going on

not spinning tyres is a good thing you got traction. what tyres are you using?

They are kumo KU19 I believe they are kinda new might be why I have traction lol

Ok I've come to the conclusion something isn't right with my car giving it a few hits on my way home it does feel slow and being stage 2 I don't understand why I couldn't even make the tyres spin in second up a hill. When I got the dump put in on stage 1 it felt good had some torque steer hitting full boost quick
It's still hitting 18psi in second and around 19-20psi in 3rd and 4th looking in the bay I can't see anything lose but honestly felt quicker on stage 1
