3 bar tune

SHOnUup · July 28, 2014, 09:26:48 AM

Sent email to tuning@lms for an updated tune containing my info this weekend.

Is that the correct area to send or should I call also?

That is correct. They normally have about 150 emails from the weekend that they have to try and get throught when they get there Monday morning. They told me if I send in a request on the weekend, then expect a reply by late Monday, or early Tuesday. Hope this helps

Thanks. They have something like 4 email headers and wanted to make sure I wasn't in wrong area. Figured the "tuning" one was it but you never know.

so...$24,000 question - what does the 3bar get me AND what tuner device supports it? I know how/where to get the 3bar sensor and such....just wonder if I can use it with an SCT tuner.

LMS will provide a 3bar tune for your SCT device but there really isn't much point in doing that. You would need their new 4X tune and it's higher boost levels to take advantage of the 3bar sensor and that requires the MyCal device.

I finally traded in my SCT for a MyCal so I could use the 4X and 3bar. You might want to contact them about doing that. They require a 160 degree thermostat with the 4X tune, too.

Bruce...the my calibrator also supports the 3 bar 4x+ right? Not just the mycal, as that's what they call the one with the display monitor.

Thanks...sent email Saturday morning. Getting pretty close to the end of working hours today, looks like another day of anticipation is on deck. Some ideal temps outside at 63* right now.

Brucelinc · July 28, 2014, 04:05:19 PM

Oh yes, the Mycalibrator is the one I have and it will handle all of the LMS tunes.

SHOnUup · July 29, 2014, 07:24:38 PM

Got the email with tunes!!! For some reason I can't get them loaded to tuner. Why me, downloaded into same area, maybe naming them threw it off. Will try for 4th different time now.

SHOnUup · July 29, 2014, 07:26:44 PM

Weird it says to run file 1, but when attempting that, it says cannot find installer program.

SHOnUup · July 29, 2014, 08:12:27 PM

Restart cpu, all is good...cmon grill, cook that food I want to go for a ride!

Brucelinc · July 29, 2014, 09:39:29 PM

So, will it run???

SHOdded · July 29, 2014, 09:42:24 PM

OT: which MyCal do you have, you guys? The latest non-touch one? WickedSHO needs help pulling the strategy code.

SHOnUup · July 29, 2014, 09:52:32 PM

I have latest non touch. Car started with no codes and not even harsh. LMS warning with tune stated hard shifting until car learns driving habits. LOL, no hard shifting at all, car must have felt me sit down in it. Really sucks that as soon as I get down the road to an on ramp to the e-way, it starts misting rain. Perfect on ramp with light, 2 lanes, and a good 1/2 mile before a curve you can take at 90+ a little bit. Do the normal 2100 rpm launch and total tire hop...hits from a roll were much quicker on response time and pulled harder. Can't wait for the track to see what the times are like. Butt dyno has me saying I wish I knew about this when I got the tune.
