I have been going nuts with this idle stuff for weeks now. I need some help. I have a built motor on boost. If specs are needed i can post them.

I am tuned on the FIC with pnp harness and I can not get the car to idle correctly. Been to 3 different tuners and none can get the car to idle correctly and they all have the car dumping fuel at cruising speeds.

At idle the car is running in the low 12's and cruising at 70mph are runs 11.5ish...obviously not where i need to be!

I also keep getting a CEL with the following: p2237 o2 sensor positive current control circuit / open - Bank 1 Sensor 1.

I have replaced the 1st o2 sensor yesterday and am still getting the same code.

I have tried running the car without the FIC and the car will idle perfectly and also not give me any codes. I also swapped out the FIC with a friends, I also swapped harnesses with another 07 with pnp harness and get the same codes and non abilitly to adjust the o2 map.

Anyone else have any idea's what it could be thats not allowing me to adjust the o2 map?

I can upload the cal file if anyone wants to see it.

Any advice and help would be appreciated.

Ok, Your in Fl. You say you've been to 3 shops to tune with. And your using AEM piggy back back on a built and boosted TC?


First of all go to CFT or at least call them. their in Orlando, The only real tune shop in Fl. As you can see you've wasted your time 3 times now. Or atleast get a hold of Paul at Dezod.

Rolo at Central Florida Turbo is a God in the tunning world. As much as most people don't like AEM he can tune it and get you straight.

Go to Tunedbycft.com and look up their info. Get Fernando or Sergio on the phone and talk to them about your set up.

If you have a built motor and turbo, do the right thing get a standalone system and quit playing with nothing more than a super AFC. You've taken the time to build it now take the time to make it run right.

Trailer it to CFT you'll be glad you did.
