Maybe we can try Wed night.  I have to go to my mom's for dinner on thursday and Friday, Nancy and I are going away.  There also is the posibility for late Sunday afternoon.

This global warming and drought is causes me to freeze and stay wet.

At this rate, maybe Gryphon's kids will be defrosted by Aug.------------------------------2010 :lol:

Back on thread,  DeepBlueGXP, the upcoming mod meet. If I still have the P2261 (Turbo\Super Charger Bypass- Mechanical) After flashing GMPP tune. If I can make it down to the meet. Can you disable that code. With your HPtuner. And do you have to by credit for the HPtuner to disable engine codes.

I have a dash hawk that can clear the codes.    What year is your GXP?  I already have credits for 07 and 08s

07 GXP 5MT, I have Actron to clear codes. I installed a Hahn IC & BOV. I adjust the BOV to get 75miles before the P2261 code is set. Called Hahn & they said it wont harm the running of the car. And I can disable the code with the HPtuner. I have the week off after the mod weekend. So it looks good for coming down for the meet Sat or Sunday.

Thanks DBG, my GMPP tune was installed today. :yay: Seems to have more power down low. On flat roads the new tune quickly spools up to 19psi. The only why the stock tune hit 19psi. was going up a steep hill to provide enough load for the ECU to let happen. On flat roads the stock tune would hit 16psi.

DBG, I still get the P2261 (Turbo\Super Charger Bypass- Mechanical) after the GMPP tune. I'm going to try to adjusting my BOV some more. Let me know if you can help me out.
Thanks,

Mike
