So my buddy Ben and I took it down Cottonwood and back to give the digifant some ejumacation, learned it good. Running much better and more power. Couple more things to do and it will be good to go.

Please elaborate. Did you like "re-train" the ECU without the ISV?

I pulled the ISV off and readjusted the timing, and adjusted the idle with the idle air bypass and reset the ECU. The more we drove the better it seemed to run and the more power it had. I've heard that digi1 can adapt to a sensor/component being missing or non functional. Also after resetting the ECU it takes some driving around for the ECU to adjust itself to what is going on. I went for a 20 min drive today, it stalled 2 times at idle toward the middle of the drive then didn't do it again after that. I'm going to keep driving it and hope it doesn't do it anymore. if not more tinkering will be needed. It is running better now than it ever did with the ISV(would occasionally stall with the ISV on it too). It pulls really nice now.

I've been debating on removing the ISV in the coupe as well.
Let us know how it goes bro!

Don't do it on the Coupe, Digi2 likes the ISV. How did you "reset" it?

It is the same procedure for digi1 and 2. Start the engine, let it get up to operating temp(coolant fan must kick on twice), after the fan goes off unplug the coolant temp sensor(DO NOT UNPLUG OR PLUG IN IF FAN IS RUNNING MIGHT DAMAGE ECU) and rev it past 4k 3 times(keep a hand on the throttle might stumble and stall at idle when rpms are dropping back down), now the ecu is reset and in a diagnostic mode. Here you make your adjustments(idle, timing ect..) let it run in this mode for couple minutes after adjustment then plug cts back in. DO NOT UNPLUG ISV WHILE ENGINE RUNNING WILL FRY ECU!

The rubbing noise is back . Still front pass. side under acceleration, coasting it goes away. any ideas??

When i put the new axle in it was raining, i had been under the car for 2 hours(some bolts stripped), it was under 40 deg, and i was soaking wet. I wanted to get inside so bad i did not tighten down the axle nut all the way. Was bleeding the brakes again yesterday and tightened it, noise went away. Now some more test driving and she should be done

Hopefully your bearing is not damaged

You use axle nuts?
