Hesitation in boost and high rpm

I just cleaned the sh!t out of mine with a ton of meth while I was priming the pump trying to get pressure.... should be good to go for a bit longer!!! :-P
 
I was talking to a buddy and he mentioned boost ramping. After telling him the full story he was confused why LMS won't just adjust the tune. There are many tricks/techniques such as pulling timing and massaging fuel to calm the turbos down a bit. He also mentioned other things like a larger intercooler which will slow down the spike (more high side volume) of air causing my issues. Also bigger exhaust wheel/housing which would loose a little low end but again wouldn't spool up so fast. Super slim chance LMS will go that direction but I feel like its what I have to do.
 
Good luck! I don't think they will do anything to the tune. But it's always worth a try...

They do use throttle closures to control the boost spikes.

That would be horrible on their part.
 
If you paid for a dyno tune where they can verify the changes they can potentially make are actually safe for your car then maybe. You would need to call them. They are not known for remote tuning anything outside of normal. Changes to shifting, yes.. things that change load, no...

But don't press them too hard, or they stop responding to your emails... ask me how I know...

Returning known values to stock for a cold tune isn't rocket science, if it was adding power I understand but this is softening up the tune. It would literally take them 15 minutes to do. They are not doing it for 200 users , 1 guy needs this change, I don't need updates to this tune. I can run the regular v8 or v10 as long as its 65f and there is some humidity. Just do it, do it (lol) , AJP already did the discovery.

With 18k views and 400 replies 3.5x more than any other post on ECPF I'm dumbfounded that we can't come to some closure.

I'm not arguing with you. Just repeating historical information. I think they should help you.
I know man they just leave me in a weird spot. I would rather them tell me to get lost instead of teetering on the edge so I can move on. nothing is ever personal to the guys at LMS or anyone here. My gripe is with LMS as a business and how my issue has been handled for the last 6 months.... it hasn't
 
Dunno man... they did a no charge dyno test and diag for you. I just think they don't really do one off stuff unless it something simple...

Another issue, they didn't diag anything because I still haven't received confirmation on anything they did. They don't even remember. I had to do all the diag myself which you saw in the stock fuel system performance thread. Unfortunately they half arsed that visit. I think their intentions may have been good but the execution wasn't there. Who else would have been this patient with them and through with diagnosing what's going on? I feel like LMS is a car dealer and the second anything is different they say "nope not touching it". The point of this thread was information for others, and finding a solution. Since I am still waiting on closure from LMS, it looks like the solution is to use a different tuner.
 
Agreed, you should move on to a different tuner.  LME has tried what they could, and it did not work out unfortunately.
 
X2 and wholeheartedly agree with -MANU and would be best to move on and take a different route. Z
In all fairness think the personal invite alone was more than satisfactory on there end. Z
 
This will be my last and final response to this Topic on hand and The only issue that comes to mind is having a [MODE 6 DATA] through IDS performed in order to troubleshoot your issue.

The only other thing that comes to mind is new (COP )Coil Packs since the New Long Block does NOT Come with Coil Packs.

Adam Best of luck on which ever route you take and just trying to help ya out,that's all .Z

Thanks to ZSHO LMS updated my tuner with v8 soft shift tune. Fuel wise it seems much more happy from what I got to test during lunch lol. More testing and a log to come. I'll give up full boost during shifts in a heartbeat if this works out.
