Okay installed the halos and the brake parts ( except the SS lines ) it took me alot more than i planned to do the brakes , especially rear was a nightmare and my rusted bolts didn't help but ill install the brake lines another day . For now , it feels amazing , alot smoother and firmer than before , the grooves in the rotors were intensive and my brake pads were literally chipping away.. I used duralast gold ceramic pads and even before break in they feel confident.. Hopefully the stainless lines will make it even better. My halos , the high beam doesn't work but setup was easy and looks tons better. Will post pics soon.

Today i realized these jerks , hiccups when i was driving my car that happens only under 3500 rpm and over 50% throttle or close to WOT. Called my tuner to report this issue but he refused to accept it was them.. Okay so at the end of the conversation he asked me if i have engine light and i do , but i always did... Either way i tried checking for the codes and instead of giving me the codes the engine light just keeps blinking with maybe 3 seconds between each time... I waited for over 20 blinks and nothing... Anybody have any ideas ?? Im so frustrated rn.. :(

Edit , ill post this on the correct part of the forum as well since i couldnt find anyone adressing this issue yet..

Did you have this issue before the tune, and did he give you any other ideas to what it could be?
Yep i tried it since i first got the car , trusting the owner that the engine light was on because of the sensor... But my car was running good.. At least it didnt have the hiccups until the tune. It actually doesnt do it at all when the engine is cold.. But my tuner insists that it's not him... My idea is that the Timing is off for the bottom end, because after 3500 I'm smooth as butter..

Timing may be off, tune may be bad, and/or you might possibly have a bad IACV.

So how come my car never did this on the older tune? I mean i think that should rule out the IACV no? Actually thinking about it again my car does idle rough ( going up and down in rpms' between 800-1300 ) . But i never knew it could cause something as big as completely cutting off power for a second.. Also i did clean it before but didn't help anything.. Could this also be caused by physical timing on the camshafts?

Yeah; I'd have somebody check out your IACV or possibly just replace it yourself.
And I think it might be a possibility that the timing could be off on the camshafts, but I'm not entirely sure on that. :???:

If it was a timing I'm not sure why it would stop after 3500rpm, I'm not very good with this kind of stuff so someone tell me if I am incorrect.

Ok so the only code i had was 01 which was the o2 sensor but since it was eliminated during tuning , would this mean its the MAP sensor on top?

It was my IAT sensor .. I didnt have one at all... Damn after reading some posts it says my ecu may be burnt because of this how do i know if it did?

im at 2410 with me in it, its an RS model so doesn't have a few bells n' whistles like ABS/AC/MoonRoof etc. rear interior and pillar panels removed. dash and doors un touched. I want to get down to 2000 as well!
