Also The Cz Unit Is An Emanage With Custom Wiring Harnesses,maps Etc. But It Is An Emanage Box. Second Ask Omicron Or Polak Or Any Number Of People Who Most Cetainly Have Dynoed More Power With The Cz Unit. Especially Polak. He Is In Your Area And Initally Had Problems When His Cz Was First Installed. But After Tuning He Has A Noticable Increase. In Other Words He Was At One Time In The Same Situation That You Are In Now. Thirdly There Is Most Definitely A Problem With Some Mafs Being At The Bottom Of The Spec Range And Some Cars That Have A Mafs Like This Experience Idle Roughness And Pinging Even In Stock Form That The Rest Of Of Don't. Some People With The K/n Cai Have Idle Problems That Are Because Of This. Just Like Some Cars For Some Cars The Cz "stock" Maps Have To Be Changed In Order To Tune For That Specific Car.

Zoom, do you shift at the beginning of each word? Or do you type in another program that capitilizes each word and then paste here? Not slamming, just curious. It's all good.

You know the one thing that stinks. Is if you ever say anything bad about a company they have to take it very personaly due to this board is a very tight community of people who trust other people for product satisfaction. So please dont go calling other people stuff crap. goes for acosta racing and cz dont tell em to go runnin. Unless it's so necassary. Remember its not a no hold bars fight.

at work i have caps lock on for use with a program. i dont always remember to turn it off before i post. a new feature of the sight disables all caps and reduces it to caps at the beginning of each word. so it doesn't look like we are shouting at each other.

you can still SHOUT if you want by holding shift when you type. but you have to do it on purpose now.

Burnt coils? Just a wild guess. From past reads on this forum It seems that you can smell this before the engine really gets symptomatic.
All I know is that my cz1.1 with the m flash works. No I dont have numbers. But, in my car its easy to tell.
Good luck man. Don't give up the good fight.
