Charge pipe bov question?

[Turbo Sonic]

Do I need a tune to get a blowoff valve and charge pipe? I recently won 500$ in a raffle want to put it all on the sonic.

Yes, you need a tune like Trifecta with ECP enabled.

Trifecta with ECP is the only tuning solution that can tune for atmospheric BOV's......

I thought so. Wasn't a 100% sure. Guess I'll be getting the tune. Along with a custom side exhaust

I have one of those. I mean both of those. feel free to email me with questions.

 

[Turbo Sonic]

This is my first post. But I do keep up with the forum. Eric u got way more then just both of those

 

[Eric Smit]

that's true, but the two of those can be had without the rest of my mods.

How many miles u got? I got mine April 2012 and only gots 5,300. I wish I bought the tune during the holidays when the cable was free. Massive screw up

33,xxx.

I still gotta go in for my first oil change. You think it's worth getting the tune? I just don't want the dealer to void my warranty

 

[ThatTmoGuy]

Get the tune, the dealer won't know it's there if you enable the transparency mode. Many of us including myself have had major warranty with while tuned with no problems.

Thanks Tmo Guy very good feedback.

5,300mi?

You need to do an oil change ASAFP!!!!

Next, get the tune before spending your money on anything else PERIOD.

My car sits in my garage a lot. I don't think 5,300 is that bad. I was planning on making a trip to the dealer this coming up week.

The first oil change is critical. I did mine at 400mi. Yes 4 0 0, and I wouldn't want all the metal dust I found, scratching my cylinder walls for 5,000 miles.

 

[Turbo Sonic]

Dang I didn't know this going to get on that ASAP

 

[Eric Smit]

unless your dealer is free, you can do it yourself pretty cheap. if you want the best of both worlds, buy your own oil and then go to an oil change place. when I stripped (twisted off the head) my drain bolt, I took it to the master lube and gave them my oil and filter and it cost me $12 dollars.

Don't want to stress you out, just wanted to express the importance. Also I'd recommend using a synth oil, like Mobil-1.

Here's a pic from my first oil change, notice the sparkly metal:

 

[Turbo Sonic]

The day I bought my car I won a free oil change. They had a spin the wheel thing. That pic definetly stressed me out lol

Ahhhhh, you'll be fine, just take care of it soon.
