    '07 Tbss Ls2 A4

    I think I've worked out the bugs in my initial tune. I really didn't know what the heck I was doing at first, but have a good tune going right now for the SS. Launches nice... No lag, and pulls hard up top.

    Latest Histo looks pretty good. A few timing tucks and It's a good beginner tune with some spicy sauce! Good daily driver tune around town.

    Lots of TM and Timing with smooth fuel throughout and good power increases from down low even. Thank you HPT!! What a defference!

    TM is kind of tricky on the SS with 4.10s. Shifts firm and Stabilitrac stays out of it. Spins tire when stabilitrack is off with no timing stutter or faults.

    PE is subtle, but have increased it more all the way around. Nice change.

    HPT help pages are a must read for us new guys!!! It might help more to get a FI tuning book for my old carb tuning habits to learn more about MAF and MAP!!! HEHEHE!

    Any recommendations on tuning MAF and MAP? Thanks guys.

    I have a K&N on mine and love it. Be careful with your TM.....these transmissions are not very forgiving. Also....I recommend a catch can for KR. These trucks love to suck oil into the intake. I had just plain detonation at 20 degrees timing before fixing the oil issue. Now it has 25-26 degrees and 15 more rwhp. Cheers.

    I am getting KR at 20 degrees as well. However the PCV line that comes from the pass side valve cover isnt connected to the intake. Could it still be pulling oil from the driver side PCV hose?
