Damn it!

Its tough to diagnose the sound over the internet. I would see if there is a way to reinstall the tune...that code p2227 is "Barometric Pressure (BARO) Sensor Performance PCM"

I feel that something isnt right with the tune...and you didn't hear back from trifecta yet?

and also see if the vacuum lines are still plugged in...maybe its the culprit

I can't figure out how to email a video I took from my iphone. It seems to hate yahoo accounts. I was hoping to hear something from Trifecta. I sent them logs last evening but have not heard back from them. There was plenty of vacuum on the RBV when I removed the stock bypass. I had to break the seal of the diaphragm to pull the hose off. I was thinking of installing the yellow spring but I suspect that wont do anything either. I won't throw in the towel until I hear back from Trifecta. If they say they can't find anything then I will have to go the back to stock, then the factory turbo upgrade and then if it throws codes or the noise returns it will be fixed under warranty.

If it ran ok before the reflash..and you havent made any physical changes...then theres something in the tune not correct...probably needs some tweaking...

I had the same problem after I did my trifecta tune. I emailed trifecta and they emailed me a new tune that fixed the problem completely, been great ever since.

I sent them some logs and they wrote a new tune but I haven't had a chance to load it. They have been great when it comes to communication and getting me a new tune quickly. I'm sure the problem will be resolved soon.
