I am obligated to let the community know about how appreciative I am of the help Mike provided me with a PCM issue on my car.
Basically the story is this...My car has been running awesome n/a , but it was time to put some spray through it see what it would do so I hit the track and for some odd reason the car would hit a wall at 121mph...no wrench light or codes but it would close throttle and throw a torque source in the datalogs. After the tune was looked over and everything was as it should be I was at a dead end and extremely frustrated. I saw the post from another member about how good mike was with tuning the A6 cars so I sent him a pm.
Mike pm'd me back with his # and I explained the issue to him. Mike was confident that between he and my tuner they could come up with a solution. Mike sent me a base tune to try and it produced similar results. At that point he wanted me to start trying to eliminate mechanical issues and I was getting worried. Later that night he sent me an email telling me that after talking with my tuner and bouncing things back and forth they had come up with a new tune to try. I went out and tried out the tune and I'm back in business and i'ts a huge relief. Apparently my PCM has to be lied to in some way to get it to go past 121mph, this is an issue that hasn't been seen before(just my luck) and Mike notified SCT about it. My tuner sent me new n/a and Nitrous tunes and I look forward to getting back to the track.
Now the ridiculous part is that Mike refused to accept payment for his services and he is absolutely deserving of it.
Thank You again Mike, you are a huge asset to the community and I owe you one. :beer:
