Default Need a boost auto trans tune file asap!!

I have a Pfvcking Pfadt blower kit and I am having a problem with (I think) the torque management system!! The tune file was labeled "manual transmission" when I have an auto!! So I wanna save my tuner and I some time and buy a tune we can tweak!! Thanks!!

Sincerely, Pfvcked by Pfadt (TWICE)

Email them and they will send you the correct file. I'm in the same situation (Pfadt blower kit installed) and Aaron and crew have continued to correspond and provide advice and info in order to get the tuning right. The first thing I'd suggest that you do is check your loader software version. If you're using a version lower than 1.08, you'll need to update. Send me a PM if you want to discuss. I'm not affiliated with Pfadt in any way, but I may be able to help you a little.

Not to hi-jack the thread but can you post a few pictures of this fabled almost non-existent blower kit either on this thread or start a new one?

Thanks.

Sorry for the off topic again but it looks like the blow off valve re-circs back into the intake. Am I looking at that correctly? If it is, I think it is the only kit that does that.

That it does. It utilizes a BPV instead of a vent-to-atmosphere.

When the its in manual mode the car performs AWESOME!! When its in "D" its like the torque management slowly ramps the power in... Even when traction control and stability is turned off!!

Torque management is a separate function from traction control.

If it remained the same design, then yes - it uses the stock 6-rib.

Just answering because I had one on order way back when.
