VMS tune question

[bobyoung]

I downloaded the ECM-TCM tunes into my car today, but haven't been able to install the Roto-Fab or the HSRK yet because of that damn deer I hit last week. My question is that it seems to be bogging down just a little, it is getting better mileage and has better shifts but doesn't seem to have the pull it had before and I seem to have to put my foot into it a little more. I'm thinking this is probably all related to the lack of air from the stock intake, he knew about it and told me he would tune it for the Roto-Fab anyway, any opinions on this problem? I e-mailed Kirk about this just tonight so I don't expect an answer of course tonight. The worst part is the car goes in the body shop tomorrow and I won't have it back for probably a week. If I have to I'll drive to damn Michigan:windy: or wherever his shop is, ahah! Anyway any opinions will be appreciated

Wait until you get the Roto-Fab installed before making any judgements.

Wait until you get it back from the bodyshop and install the Roto and HSRK and then retest.

[bobyoung]

Yeah, that's what I thought too, Kirk also thought the same same. It's going to be a long wait.

[bobyoung]

Well got the word today that I have to wait another week for the car, can't wait to get it back and install the rest of the stuff, the Roto-Fab and the HSRK. It's been fun driving around my 95 Roadmaster though, thing has some guts with it's 260 HP lT1, any mods for these?

[bobyoung]

Got the car back Wednesday, haven't been able to drive it much because of the lousy weather but it definitely does has more pull and the shifts are better.
I'll put the Roto and HSRK in Monday as long as the weather lets me. It definitely has more guts now, I can feel it with normal driving.

[bobyoung]

Well the more I drive it the better I like it.

[GRRRR8]

Well the more I drive it the better I like it.

...and the more your back tires will hate you! lol

...and the more your back tires will hate you! lol
I love my back tires, ahaha! especially when they're fishtailing around a nice curve, this car is very nicely controllable.
Yup and I feel like me and the car are growing in the same direction if that makes any sense. I am really going to do my best to install the CAI and the HRSK, got the day off and it's supposed to be in the 60's again, crazy new england weather we've getting lately. I was actually wondering about having a mild cam installed.

[bobyoung]

I have my own special thread here, aha! Anyway I finally got the Roto-Fab installed and what a difference! This thing flies now and what a great sound. The difference is like night and day, it felt like the engine was choking before, not getting enough air, it ran great until you put your foot into it, now you put your foot into it and watch out. It was a little damp today but I went a little sideways twice taking off and had to let off, lots of fun. Took me a little over two hours, got dark in the middle of it which further slowed me down. Anyway the Roto-Fab really woke up the tune and the car, this thing is fast now and very responsive to the gas pedal and lives up to what I have read elsewhere here about the VMS TCM tune. I'm going to try to get it on a dyno soon.
