Had my 02 dynoed and tuned today, was somewhat happy,I thought I would have made more rwhp,but thats the way it is,he also tried to tune the nasty firecracking poping that happens when I back off suddenly on the fuel,got some of it out.He told me could be the location of the O2 sensors,reading it lean,then dumping fuel in.If I hold the pedal steady for a split second then back out of it,it is not near as bad. Oh well, I have 338 to the wheels,after the tune, and 326 before.
Its all good,better throttle reponse and winds a lot quicker,and turned the fans on sooner. Nothing special to report, thanks for reading tho.

Thanks Al

Any other mods?
326 was pretty good stock, my 01 only hit 291 before the boltons...

Popping on decel I hear an x pipe can help....

Others will chime in I'm sure....

Yes--the factory H pipe is notorious for the popping or gurrgling sound--Also check for exhaust leaks which can make it pop--
These cars are pretty well tuned bone stock---10-17 RWHP is about the norm without bolt-ons like a CAI or cat-back--338 sounds great---

thank you.. I am pleased with the way it runs for sure. I should have been more specific with the exhaust,XSpower headers into 3"cats,into 3"xpipe,into 3"midpipes into 2.5" Corsa system. I do have a small leak on the right side header we discovered,may cause some popping,will retorque,but might be too late,gasket is probably toast,just don t like the thoughts of pulling it apart and trying a new gasket,if i do,will definaltely go with the factory tin gasket,tuner said i could use the ones I took off,but I don t want to do it twice,even tho they look in good condition.
Thanks for the input
