Something is way off period.. 340/335 is 20G with TGV's 2.4 inlet, 7cm etc.. Your tuner is flat out not tuning you correctly and I would be worried if I was you. The tuner telling you that he THINKS its a 2.4 inlet or TGV... He should know exactly what the problem is.. How much money have you dished out on tunes??

The things he said are the problem are not, yeah the TGV and 7cm restrict you to a certain point but not to see the very low number your seeing and the 2.4 inlet has nothing to do with it.. I can only tell you to find a new tuner ASAP and I would be getting my money back from this so called tuner..

So professional and experienced that he utilized a stock-ish MAF curve for a 70mm MAF .

Wow. Unbelievable. Totally unbelievable. Find a new tuner who will give you real advice without taking your money ... and then taking your money ... and then taking your money ... and then taking your money.

I just checked your latest map. You still have not been tuned properly for the 70mm MAF and your big injectors. Looks like the 'retarded' map wasn't due to the 'leaks and restrictions'.

GLHF.

First off wether its done or not its not the proper way to tune. The fact that he continued to take your money and not correct it is CRAZY.. I would be going nuts if I spent 1700 bucks and that was my car.. I am not tryin to be a deek but.. Listen dude PM John@Precision he is my tuner here in NJ he is a great guy willing to help anybody, and he is a great tuner super informative send him your logs etc just so he could tell you.. All I can say is I wouldnt feel safe with that tune at all.. Good luck dude

My initial points still stand, especially the lack of scaling to over 3 g/rev in the appropriate maps. The fuel table sucks, maf blows, and everything else blows and or sucks (your choice).

This isn't a knock against you, but you got take for $1700. To save money and your car you might have the best bet learning to do things yourself. Head over to romraider website to get some help and learn

Just think, $1700 could have gone to a rotated setup :P

Sorry that you had all these troubles.
