Need help
Hi,
I've searched the forums and Google but haven't really found what I need. I'm hoping someone here can point me in the right direction.
I have a 2014 C7, 2,300 miles with a Procharher D1SC supercharger. I purchased this car from Colorado. I live in Boise Idaho. I spoke with Procharger and they said the tune I have the MAF should auto adjust and that a retune is not critical. It's about 3K feet lower in elevation here.
initially, and mostly the car runs extremely well. The last few days (super hot outside) the car has randomly revved up to about 3K rpm while idling and in neutral and then in a few seconds normalizez. This occurs completely randomly and sometimes not at all. It's usually very hot when it does happen.
Is it a vacuum leak? Do i need a retune? What would cause this so inconsistently? Any help is greatly appreciated!

Idle issues and surging issues are all pre-boost---The provided tunes furnished by procharger mostly only affect tuning WIRH boost--as your engine is bascically STOCK and should run as such pre boost
If you are having idle issue like surging or dying--those are typical issues related to a cold air intake or re routing of your MAF sensor location or intake air plumbing--Not related to the SC at all---
Have you recently re oiled your air filter? changed the air flow intake plumbing or MAF location ???
Data logging is the only way to see exactly how far off your fuel trims are--If they are way off you'll get the idle issues you describe-

To answer your question. No I haven't made any changes. It is just much hotter outside.

A conservative 6 lbs at the moment. Not sure at the moment on the pull size but will have the mechanics check. I have cooks long tube/catted xpipe, NPP and race intake as well.

Judging by the boost and from the previous post said you are located at higher elevations. I am assuming the standard 4.75 inch pulley.
Do you have any dyno number on the setup?
