What’s the magical trick to take the PCV hose off the turbo inlet pipe? This thing is killing me.

I just pull and twist. It is a pain though

The problem was, the DV of the Garrett turbo prevented turning really at all. It was brutal

Paging SimosTools users.

How in the hell do I switch maps? I've seen 3 different ways on youtube and none worked for me. It's past my tuners bedtime where he lives so before I give up on logging tonight I thought I'd ask you fine people.

You can’t if it doesn’t have map switching. otherwise hold cancel for a few seconds if thats what he mapped it to

He told me to "switch up to map 2" which to me implied I could switch. I'll give that a shot and see

Vice grips and a wrench. Vice grips to "gently" hold the clip part down and a wrench to pop it off

Does this fuel line look funny? It was a lot smoother looking when I installed it a few days ago.

edit: I’m an idiot. Off to Oreillys for some Barricade SAE J30R14 type 2
