IDK whats going on...

Hey whats up guys i just installed my PiggyBack ECU v.2 and im having problems....my car is slower.....and at WOT when ever i shift gears the engine bogs for almost a hole second.....If i was going to run my car or get on the throttle WOT to redline....Then hit the next gear and give WOT the car bucks wicked bad cause i hit WOT when i shifted in to the next gear.....Almost like i slammed on the breaks......

Any help with this would be great OH do you have to tune thru a scan tool that hooks to an OBD2 Port and then hook scan tool to laptop...then run the software....

You need to disconnect the battery for longer, say 20 minutes.

Its probably still learning. Don't gas it too hard. Just cruise around. I think it takes around 200 miles for it to really smooth out.

yeh the piggy will take about 200 miles to fully learn everything. my car just got done relearning after i put a new map on it., its running much better now.

if in about a week or so your car is still running like crap then you may wanna check your connections on the piggy
