3.3TT 9 months update Lap3 ECU/TCU achievements. 10-secs Kia

[gingfreaccs]

Hello update to my 10-seconds conquest.


Track conditions were bad due to the cold weather. To those that know me I’ve been trying to get sub 11 on the drag strip and we finally got it!

I have the Lap3 Stage 2.5 ECU tune and not sure about everyone else’s tune but this hasn’t been revised since I got it. Only thing I added is the Lap3 Stage 3 TCU tune.

I had a racing seat at one point but comfort is more important so I’m still using the OEM seats baby. This is my daily driver after all. This is not a shop car, this is not a weekend car, this is my daily and I drive 60 miles to and from work every day. I’ve been less active lately just cuz I’ve been working more. My motor or transmission has not blown. I did get transmission flush done.

Peak psi is 20 and sustained. Not sure what other people are running at but I feel much safer at this level.

Gas I used e30 blend, sheetz 93 and Sunoco e85. I did buy some 100 octane but I left it at home .

Even though I ran a 10 second pass, the big turbo stinger is still faster. That thing will gap you all day everyday .

Overall Lap3 has done a wonderful job on the tune. I can’t ask for more. I believe there’s a couple of fellas here that was running 28 psi and uhhh RIP. I’ll enjoy my 20psi tune.

I’m stubborn and didn’t want to gut my car any further. I did take out the spares and passenger seats. I don’t want to feel like a Honda boi. Coincidentally I did beat that honda .

Here is the list of my mods:

VT Lit Scoops
Ark Legato Hood
Lap3 stage 2.5 ECU tune
Lap3 stage 3 TCU tune
Lap3 downpipe
Lap3 protuner w/ meth
Oem intake manifold with no spacers
OEM driver seat (no aluminum)
Oem BOV
OEM midpipe
Borla Catback
AEM intakes
NGT TBS
Mishimoto FMIC
N2MB wotbox
Girodisc 2-piece rotors
RPF1 wheels
Michelin Pilot Super sports 255/40/18

I have nothing else to prove to anyone on here. Lap3 has made a great tune. I slap it on and I run. I stopped data logging cuz I haven’t had any problems with it lol. Most problems I had was user error and boost leaks. No messing with intake manifold spacers, use this type of fuel and that fuel and jet fuels. Sheetz 93, and e85 for e30 blend and methanol injection. Some weight reduction, put on the tune and practice then pedal to the floor. Keep it simple. This is not a shop car, this is not a weekend car, this is my daily driver.

PS: I just finished driving 150 miles since getting 10-seconds. Car is smooth as a legato. IMO stay away from thieves and support authentic tuning from Korea.
