oh..

If he calls the GM, the gm will assign a salesperson to it, or, if he doesn't, when I call up there and say hey we need this car, he will tell me to **** off they have a customer on it.

Same customer~

I'm still learning all of this - so by all means school me - I just know for a certain fact that both the JB4 and the cobb tune - both gave me tremendous power gains. Earth shattering differences. Well worth the extra coin and time to get it installed.

yeah I love the retro cars. I really love the Hemi-ed level cars. But, I can't fix the old cars myself and can't afford a 2nd car just for me with also shopping for a boat.LMAO

Not clear here. Your a customer of that dealership?

I've already told them I want to test drive it on Wednesday.

... I work for Machens... I told you that.. told you to look at my inventory.. then you picked a car out and called another salesperson. I would like to sell cars to people from CP, especially when I'm actively engaged in linking you to my inventory lol.

That hurts a little bit~

I'm still not clear here. This is a dealership in Tampa. I just went to the link that Bearcat found and posted. The car is sitting on their lot in Tampa. How can you be involved in the transaction?

Ah well.. foot in my mouth a bit, I thought you had set up test drive for the machens car you had linked prior with another salesperson!

But, anyone else can now know that I am serious about car stuff :P

Dude, I go to the link you posted and then call someone else to buy the car? WTF? I agree, that would seriously be uncool. I'd be pissed too. No worries.

The Accessport (not familiar with the JB4) allows you to go in and adjust the tables that make the motor run and affect how it runs. You can adjust fuel/air ratio, waste gate operation, timing, etc. The factory settings for these tables are set for maximum reliability and minimal fuel consumption. You can get good additional horsepower out of the motor by changing these settings with a tune.

I see - okay - so the house tune was the actual tune and the ECU work ? got it - like I said i'm sort of new - I know a little about a lot - not a lot about a little.

Am I understanding you correctly now? So the accessport wasn't the ECU work? but rather a code clearer - a map changer and some other things? Am I picking up what you're laying down? I'm still learning a lot. SO much to learn w/ these things.

hometeam 02-09-2015 09:53 PM
**** it if we are soupin shit up lets go big turbo and all the trimmings.

Then a tune~

AP can apply and change tunes, its just the device a person uses to edit and apply settings in the ECU of the vehicle. A 'map' is any set tune.

So the 335i will need a tune?

A little bit. The Accessport allows you to change the ECU settings. The "tune" is the shop going in and adjusting those values to get the best HP number out of it.

I'm not an expert on the finer details of tuning a modern motor (which after the CFA I will be diving into), but it's kind of like overclocking your PC. Stock works fine but if you're looking for the optimum set up, then you have to change it.
