I've kinda put my tunes into generations. I know some of the Gen 2 and 3 files are easily sub 15 second. But they have problems which the what I call the 'Gen 4' set out to solve.

I haven't really had the time yet to make a super powerful Gen 4 version yet. The one I do am working with is relatively smokeless and is fairly mild. Definitely not as wild as the earlier ones but some people like it a lot better.

Hey if you want to try it let me know. Although there's the whole.. Autocal issue.
From what the guys at Fleece told me, unless you change the Turbo, you cant have more power w/o big risk of boom.

They said that the Turbo was the most feeble part of our setup and when you do around 200-210hp at the crank, you are at maximum safe lvls and im right there.

So sub 15s with stock everything like i have? No way.

Anyway, its the best a Cruze Diesel can do, unless it would be way more modified. (Bigger turbo, injectors, suspension, ect...)

But with more power, traction would be a big problem. Even at my power lvl i had difficulty hookin'up on a preped track with our open diff, that's with 225mm PZero tires, lol, so...
I was doing 2.2s on Nankang 245/35/20...

I bet a set of radials and a loose extension rear shock will get it down to 1.7s

Something's up with Fleece's tune. It really shouldn't smoke as much as it does. Not really sure what to say, it's not like I can look at it and say what they did wrong. I can only speculate...

lol, nothing is wrong!

This is not the normal Fleece tune, its a tune i asked for, an hybrid tune between the Delete race tune and the 50hp tune, i explain that in my 1st post.

Alright alright.

So open offer. If you convince Fleece. I will send them my latest and greatest 'mild' tune to them for no cost. They can package it for your autocal and there ya go. I trust them enough not to blatantly steal everything in it.


And then. There can be honest comparison.

Ok, add your car to your garage and make a signature detailing all the mods you did to you Cruze, then have pictures proving it. Then go on quarter with equal or less mods then i have and do a better time.

Hey Poje, I just noticed your in Canada, where? I'm in Ontario where they test for emissions. does the tunes pass the test? Or do you need to do something every time you take it in?
They do not test in Quebec and no, if you dont have the After treatment, you wont pass the test.

Sort of? It's more complicated than that.
Ok, i will accept to test your best Tune, but i will ask Fleece to check it out, to be sure it wont destroy my turbo/engine.

Would prefer if you made the deal beforehand then figure out who specifically I need to send it to in an email.
Ok, i sent an Email to Corbin at Fleece, i will tell you what he says.

Just so we understand each other:

Intake
Tune
Exhaust
DOT tires

Correct? So if I was to tune my own car, I am not going to hear "But I meant *insert shop name* tunes only". Correct?

This thread is exciting. I want to get to the track, we have 1/8 locally. My car launches great with a little bit of stall, bottom end is awesome, but just falls flat on top of the rpm range. I feel like it would be low 10s in 1/8.

I would personally like to see high 9s and I would be happy. Guess I need to go and get a baseline first.

I bought this car for strictly commuting fuel mileage, but 1 emission hiccup and delete/tune later and I wanna go fast.
