WORTEC Performance in Southern England did my tuning. I am now in the process of researching widebands and its looking like I'm gonna go with the NGK AFX and have Damon tune it with logs back and forth.


Yea I read up on the NTK sensor and apparently that's the way to go now. Logs (normal driving) were sent to Damon so he can chime in whenever and give you an idea on how my tune looks.

Yea....thanks for your feedback Dave. I was at the track and after the first run I was like WTF 12.6@116? Car smelt like gas. My good friend Justin who had the tune file sent it over to you for a look and got back with me. As soon as I heard what ya'll said about it I parked the car.

So I been in the process of getting my car dialed in with Damon. 


  1. First off was to get the wideband set up:




2)After that we went to pick up a beater car for a friend:




3)Did some logs and tried to get her dialed in but ran into some issues. Knock was showing up.





4) Next day we hung out and decided to burn up some pork chops on the grill (literally)




5) On our way to shooting some pool, I lost power steering and pulled over....my main belt drive tensioner snapped.




I got that sorted and car back running. I decided to pull the plugs and see if I could do something about my issue. I kept getting P0300 (misfire). After the plugs were out, i verified gaps and figured I've found the culprit. Some gaps were set at .048/040/035, etc. Basically the gaps were way off and most above .040. I got that sorted and re-installed the plugs. The car fired right up and not much hesitation. I hope that was the problem. Do you think this could have caused the misfire/knock?
