Hello gents,
First time HP Tuner user, first time poster, very excited to start poking around.
Hoping I've got everything needed to perhaps shine a little light, if a scan is needed I can do that, might just need a little help.
I've got a 1999 Camaro turbo car that I recently purchased but the cold start/idle and drivability need a little TLC.
I tried playing around and adding a little timing and air to the idle but to no avail, attached is the incomplete base tune I bought the car with.
The car was WOT tuned on the dyno and made 748whp on 12 lbs. through a bad TH400 which I've sense replaced so the top end of the tune seems okay.
Combo consists of the following:
Forged LS1
CNC Ported 243 heads
Brute Speed Forced Induction Cam
Victor Junior intake, elbow and Holley 105mm TB, no MAF
FI Billet S484 Turbo
FIC 1000cc injectors / AM fuel system and rails / pump gas only / 40psi base fuel pressure
TH400 Transmission
I've got a couple issues I'm looking to remedy and would love some help but also want to learn so if you have a suggestion please give additional info.
-Upon cold start, car starts right up but quickly stumbles and dies after starting, doesn't seem to reach the 1000rpm target idle, I have to keep it alive with the throttle until there's some heat in it. Hot start/idle is good.
-Car wants to die when coming to a stop when driving, I have to modulate the throttle while decelerating so it doesn't die, also seems to struggle a little while idling in gear.
-When you just start to press on the gas while cruising it seems like the transition from closed TB blade to just cracking it open is not right, there is a bit of a flat or dead spot.
Any info or guidance is greatly appreciated!
Thanks.
