It's not gonna take you as long to break it in and tune it as it did to build it is it?

I mean i'd like to see dyno results before AARP starts sending me stuff.

yes - you WILL like that

Keeping an STI at bay at 1/2 throttle for a while before totally destroying it is fun as well .....

Wow, not that there isn't a bunch of nonsense in this already too long of a thread but I think this bit of bullshit tops it..... There is a for sale section on the forum... USE IT

ps... and wtf is the tundra of Chicago, if I can drive my lowered turbo'd 8 in Saskatchewan Canada than how do you need a 4x4 to navigate suburbs??

I'm just following directions

The car seems to run fine but I'm still getting the APV stuck open codes and multiple cylinder misfires. I have emailed Kane, hopefully it's because it's not tuned. The BHR kit is new and I have double checked the wires, plugs, etc. The car idles perfectly.

pull the APV motor and check the APV operation by hand turning the gear

or you can try powering the motor directly instead per Jons' DIY

I'll run through the tests with you next weekend if you haven't gotten around to it.

2 possible things (if it isn't the motor and gear moves smoothly)...

1. when the apv valves get ported it throws a code (this makes no sense)

2. your magnet on the apv gear is positioned wrong.

It's easy to put the stupid gear on wrong if you don't pay attention. You can change it out in the car but it is a PIA

I took the valves off but I marked the positions of each and put them back on the same way. I didn't actually remove the APV motor itself. Hopefully we can fogure it out. You think that has anything to do with the misfires?

you may want to check the switch that is engages when the valve is supposed to open. It may have gotten bent while installation or removal. Happened to me.

I think you are thinking of the SSV, I am getting a code for the APV.

If you didn't remove the gear you should be ok for that.
Missfires around 5-6k can be the tune easily
There was a TSB for the APV that replaced the gear.
Remove the motor and you should be able to turn the gear easily. If not you might have to loosen the lower manifold bolts to move it a bit to free up the barrels
