Problems tuning on dyno?

Szwaboski · 05-08-2008, 07:42 AM

I'm wondering if there's any problems tuning on the dyno for the 07 and 08 fg2's because I am going to go f/i this summer and i'm talking to a shop about it and I remember reading somewhere that the vsa, even when turned off, turns back on a saftey measure and doesn't let the car work on the dyno. So i'm just asking about it now before I purchase a s/c or the greddy turbo. I remember reading it about it on here by some guy saying it. Anyone know of this issue? I have an 08 so I'm wondering if there's any problems

Still wanting to know if there's any for sure problems or not.

S/C will not need tuning on the dyno

Turbo- shouldn't be a problem with the VSA, most people on here have dyno'd fine.

For dyno tuning pull the VSA/ABS fuse in the box next to the ECU. I know of a few people that had dyno issues without this done.

I've done a bunch of dyno runs with my FA5 and the only thing that happens is the traction light and ABS light will trip but it will go away after you drive 100 feet. The car functions fine as long as you shut it off with either the switch or pull the fuse.

ok then i have another question.... if I pull the fuse... do i have to worry about the TPMS sensor turning the VSA back on if I'm at the strip and want to lower the pressure in my tires? Because i want to see the difference in times especially with the greddy turbo on

If your planning to go turbo it will depend on your tuning method. I planned to disable VSA when the Haltech is installed.
