I'm so past being sad/angry I don't even care. Egas will go in haha. It's not a nice feeling though. I'm sure the previous 100k of dero spec tunes and driving didn't help it. Will report back on what happened when it's pulled down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's gotta be oil starvation, or spun a bearing or something. Tune was spot on, all parameters were fine. The only difference being there's no oil leaks/air leaks now so I guess it not getting the full gutful of boost was saving itWho tuned it ? Was it tuned with all the air leaks ?

Now everything is tight.. I'm not blaming anyone but myself. I should have known better.. I just had to give it a hiding after the dramas it caused me haha. This is my punishment. It's all speculation at this point, but 20 bucks says it was oil starvation/tired engine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeh I'm just thinking the positive, it's telling me to go back to an fg, probably f6. Or I'll get a ranger and set it up for touring 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
