Thanks for the reply. Does this guy/shop have a website or webstore or youtube channel or something where we can learn more about his product?

Edit: I assume this is his website https://theotllife.com/ but nothing there about the flash/tune product for the LC500

 

A detailed official statement from the tuner himself stating the changes that this tune will bring to the LC in regards to power and transmission logic..etc is much needed

 

anyone use the magnum tuner or jb4 tuner

 

Please ask for a exhaust pop tune ! Just a little bit of pop would be enough ! More info please ! Thanks

 

I could be wrong, im pretty sure they dont make a JB4 for LC500. Maybe the LS500, but JB4 is designed for turbo engines.

 

Been inactive for a bit, sorry. The stage one tune didn't have much of a power gain on my car; I believe the reason was fuel. We don't get consistently good fuel out here in California unfortunately. I guess the day I did my baseline dyno I had good fuel and my KCLV was around 22. After flashing the tune a couple months later my KCLV was around 16 so there was no gain in HP. I did notice that if I mixed in a little maybe 5% of the tank with e85 that my KCLV would shoot up back above 20. I'm waiting on a couple parts and hopefully will be installing my Zeitronix ethanol content analyzer and Loi will get me an e85 tune. I'm hoping this will make a larger difference. Once this happens I'll get it on the dyno again and post results.

 

I'll ask Loi if there's a way to add burbles in. I know on turbo cars it's not great for the life of the turbo. Not too sure how it'll affect engine life for a N/A car.

 

No major mods, just unplugged the muffler valves on the factory system and deleted resonators.

 

We get the same crap gas in Arizona. I never got above 18 or 19. I got a recommendation from RR Racing to try an additive. They recommended this:



I've been using it for the past year and my KCLV is now in the 23 or above range This stuff works.

 

I'm sure that when you get a higher blend of ethanol in your tank that Loi can tune for you'll see some HP gains for sure, but the biggest gain will come if you put headers on the 2UR....this NA motor responds like very few NA cars do when headers are added, best bang for your buck IMO👍......ask Lou he knows what headers can do for the ISF and now his LC

 

Good to know, I'll try it out!

 

Yeah you're definitely right about the headers. I had EL Headers on my RCF with Loi's stage 2 tune and that car woke tf up! I've been considering headers, but haven't quite decided on it yet.
Likely I will just remove the secondary cats for now and see how well it does. I don't want to deal with a CEL or SMOG issues. Emissions laws are only getting more restrictive and consequences are getting more severe, so if I can live with it I will.
The other best bang for your buck mod on the LC I've read about is swapping the diff with a LC hybrid diff. Considering it's about the same cost as headers, I may go that route before doing headers. I'm sure the combo of both together will definitely wake this car up. We shall see...

 

^^^^With my PPE headers I have had not any CELs. I have GESI cats in the mid pipe. PPE is now making headers with cats welded in if that interests you.

Ethanol content analyzer and fuel lines installed

 

Update: I’m officially running flex fuel in my LC as of today. I had a local shop install the zeitronix ECA pictured above along with e85 ready fuel lines.
Currently on a street tune provided by Loi remapping the ecu to be okay with e85 fuel. As of today it’s sitting at e56. After all the 91 octane is burned it should be closer to e80 and then Loi will dyno tune the car for optimal power output. We’re hoping for at least 420 whp but we will see. 🤞🏽
