Where is your IAC counts at idle.. you may lower them down to 5-15 counts at idle by opening your throttle blade a little, that may help.... after that.. looks like a FAST XFI.... will take care of ALLLL YOUR ISSUES..

Boy O boy! I knew that one was coming! Thanks for the "quick fix" remedy. How much for all I'd need? (FAST) Also, are they pretty easy to learn? There is only one other Turbo Buick guy here so kinda tough to get competent help out here! Thanks for the turbo though! I LOVE IT!!!!!!! Once the little tweaks are done....

Hehehe.. couldn't resist it, anytime I see a big turbo and a lot of other good parts..... seems the best form of tuning and performance is the FAST. Chips, big injectors are like water and oil to me. But I will try to help any way I can. I meant it about the IAC counts. If it is an off idle hesitation... we usually work the min idle screw and open the throttle blade till our idle IAC counts are around 10, give or take a few.. then reset the TPS to spec, around 42-46.. after that, if everything else checks out, maybe Eric at TT can work some magic.. on the chip.

No problem. Jason from Montana. Just got car home Friday, just short of a year! It left last Nov.6th but he did it right so after all the time no real complaints!

Jason,
Shoot me an email or something and I'll see if I can help.
Get an idea of what the BLM's and O2's are doing when the flat spot occurs.

Regards,
Eric
