[20V1.8Tnut]

The same day I installed NS TIP, I drove back home from my buddy's place and I have noticed that on a highway (65MPH+) the the EGT was about 150-200F higher than before according to my EGT gauge. I thought that ECU will compensate for leaner Air/fuel mixture, but it doesn't yet. Does anyone with NS TIP experienced the same thing? Someone posted pics of his glowing turbo after he installed NS TIP and 3"DP not long ago, and responses were something like "it runs hotter because it runs more flow". I think it is [email protected]#$%^Sh*T, the key is a leaner mixture and as a consequence higher EGT.

I found my car was running like crap with the new tip until I realigned the throttle body. The car got smooth again when I did that, the tip at first didn't feel good.

Kode, how do you re-align the throttle body? Do you have that function on your APR chip? I'm a little confused by your statement - you re-aligned the throttle body and it smoothed out when you did that, but it didn't feel good at first? What happened, did it get better as you drove it? Did the ecu re-learn it's optimum settings?

To realigned the throttle body, just open the hood, open the driver door, and put the key in the on postion. The walk back to the motor and listen to the throttle body, it will be making a noise. Once this noise stops give it a secound or two for good measure then start the car. The throttle body should be realigned and the car will fill a little bit better. You should do this everytime you change something on the motor. This is what I think I know but If I'm wrong someone chim in and help or correct me.

http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif Thanks, silvergolf, I will try that as well. I also have the TBA feature on my APR chip, but they didn't mention when it needed to be done, just to do it on a cold motor.

I do it the way Silver pointed out. My car just didn't seem to adjust to it automatically, but after the realign, it was actually noticable. I have not added anything to my car since the last realign so I am fairly certain it was all due to the TIP.
