Alright I ordered a new set of OEM gaskets that'll arrive to my dealer on Tuesday ($40 bucks too!) But I'm confused by the O2 sensor problem. I understand that one of the cables is too short, but all the threads I look at are inconsistent. Some say it's the driver's side and other say it's the passenger. Some say you can un-tie it and be alright, others say you can't or if you do it'll be tight. I've also seen that some people, some of you guy actually, had to cut some tab off of one?

Is the racetronix extension necessary or for peace of mind? Also, is this the right part Number? O2EXT-4T-12T

As I remember...the pre cat extensions from bbk need modification...my rear passenger sensor needed a extension. Ordered one from Racetronix

We've been goofing off logging and pulling stock calibrations off 2010-11s for a minute now.

We're ready to roll on LLT Tuning just as soon as HPT let's it loose!

I was watching vines the other day and this one instantly made me think of Jason.

Another option for tuning for the LLT? Yay! I wonder what the gains are going to be.

yes, we have been racking our brains on how we are going to pass smog/emissions, and this looks like the ticket. just need to know when it will be available. need it before February. almost pulled the trigger on IPF or just putting the stock manifolds/cats back on.

Man I hope this works out! Tuning plans are now officially put on hold. Definitely want to see what happens with this!

jewel25 · 12-07-2013, 09:25 PM

Word, I reality don't want to go back to stock headers.

Looking forward to another tuning option for the LLT, but I don't think you'll be unhappy with the IPF tune either

Oh I know I just don't need need it until mid January, I like having more options. Plus I might get the IPF s/c down the road anyways so staying in that tuning family would already be a plus

Why? If hp tuners does indeed release a tuning solution, I'd much rather get the ipf kit without their tune so I can get a proper dyno tune on it. Hell if they do release a successful tuning solution I'd highly consider a custom turbo since I can get it dyno tuned now

Depends on how theirs turns out. I know it doesn't make sense but I lean towards using same companies for certain things. But if it does turn out good and a few go custom I probably would go that route since I'm not looking at going FI until I get back from deployment anyways so I'm in no rush.

I just need a tune for my headers I'm putting on in January.

The IPF tune with their SC kit does the job. And Arno does a great job of tweaking with your feedback. But like I always said there's nothing better than an on dyno tune !
The IPF SC kit is the most mature system out there and the tune is the only one I can say shows true gains.
I have worked with custom kits before and have had good luck, but there was always tweaking going on after the install. This is extra money and time.
If this is anywhere near a daily driver for you you need to take this in consideration.
