Stage 2 Tune / 10AT Performance

Hey folks!

So, i reflashed my Accord Sport 2.0 with the dual tune 2.0 and took it to the local track. Up top after 4k the car felt amazing, one thing i did notice is that off the line after 2k rpm it feels like the car falls on its face and then picks up after 3k/3.5k rpm and then goes. My car is a 10AT so the i can only really rev to 2k RPM while i wait for the light to go. Is this dip in power/responsiveness something that can be adjusted? i have the Turbo Responsivnes and Part-Throttle Responsiveness set at level 2, and being an AT car i can't take advantage of 2-step. KTuner is definitely an amazing product and i really love what it's done to my car as it is!!!

Glad you're enjoying the tunes so far!

I'm not sure how you mean falls on its face. Same if you just gun it from idle or only launching at 2k? The cams move to help to spool the turbo and during this they move to a point that you can generally feel as being inefficient, power wise. If that's what you mean then it's actually necessary movement in order to spool the turbo as quickly as it does. Feel free to send a datalog via email to confirm.

I think he is bogging off the line. No need for special launches. Just hit the gas when the tree turns green. Stock 2.0T Autos are hitting 13.9 with no launch.

It turned out to be a "operator error" :lol: :lol: I took it back to the track and did some testing, the bogging i felt was generally after the car was heat-soaked. Definitely looking into the PRL intercooler or a W/M setup.

I went back to the track, and it was a pretty decently cool night and did a 13.8ET @ 99mph

Glad to hear you're getting more acquainted with your vehicle. You'll definitely bring that time down!

I just purchased a 2019 Accord 2.0T Sport AT and I’m interested in flashing one of the stage 2 maps KTuner offers. Do any of the preloaded stage 2 maps require aftermarket parts or can they be flashed to a bone stock accord?

They were designed on a factory vehicle, but have been tested good with all exhaust modifications and intakes that have properly sized MAF housings.
