@GST with PSI Brett! I see you took a liking to Martin (black 2g with green turbo) and Louie's (2g awd spyder) cars too :)I loved that old school car, talked to that guy for a bit, great build.
@Kapok6, no the idea is to keep pressure just in the rail, so between the check valve and the afpr diaphragm. Once the engine is cranking and the pump is on, fuel and fuel pressure will fill everything else in the blink of an eye. I just wanted the pressure in the rail before I start to crank...

Haven't really touched the car in 1-2 months, she just sleeps in the garage. But in the event I wanted to fire her up and go for a spin, it always bugged me that the old-school fuel systems didn't have check valves, nor did the aftermarket fuel pumps. Our ecu also doesn't prime the...
@kmetiuk very nice post! I solved the power cycling issue, not by upgrading firmware, which I guess can't hurt doing, but by moving the o2 back to where they suggest it in the manual (and also running the two gauges off of a relay for direct battery power). I think the tubular o2 I have doesn't...

She's finally cooling down a touch. Yesterday braved the 100F feels-like temps and drove to philly for MoD2016. Water temps weren't a problem on the drive, but oil temps got up there, figure mid 200F's after cruising at 60-65 for a half hour. Winter project will be the oil cooler...
1. RPM/TPS Tab: bump your coasting FC offset to 130.
2. VE Table: 0 rpm column, from 0.0 down to 9.2, make that 55 into a 65.let me know how that works.
pretty sure you can't buy the whole assembly anymore, aftermarket only has the outer portion. if JNZ can locate you a new one, great, otherwise the goto place for used stuff is www.millerimportparts.com
Incorrect. You can run the forward-facing oil cooler with an aftermarket sandwich like the derale unit, as I plan on doingYes, it can be cleaned. The passageways are big enough to run diesel thru them and that should do a good enough job at cleaning it out. However, they can be "crushed"...
I agree, get your AFR lined up FIRST, then add timing back a degree at a time SECOND. Looking at ~35-36 lb/min airflow at the top of 3rd, I think you're missing about 100hp.
better. lower mafcomp at 50hz a click, it seems your average airflowperrev in the log is .27 when .24-.25 is desirable.LTFT Lo is now +8 to +10, add deadtime 3 clicks, wait two minutes for a new LTFT Lo to stabilize, repeat until it's more or less at 0%
Why is "Wideband Air/Fuel" that you have added to your displayable values, only showing 22.4 ? is the o2 sensor out in free air for some reason ?Knock CEL should be set lower, i like to use 2 degrees for CEL.On the Misc tab, why do you have "disable airflow smoothing" checked, when you're...

@kodylk08 omni4bar is in there, just have to add it to the screen.as far as the log:
i agree not bad, however pretty rich for a tuned car if you know what you're doing. for pump gas you can lean it out to at least 11.0 target AFR.also, what's up with your battery/alternator? its a funky...
gotta keep going back and forth with both deadtime and the 50hz maf slider to get LTFT Lo at 0% and AirFlowPerRev at 0.24-0.25. 1g ecu require waiting about 2 minutes after adjustments for the ecu to "normalize", 2g's should do it quicker. This is typically the most time consuming part of...
Doesn't look like anyone said it, but you stated a 0.28" gap for the spark plugs. factory is .028", so you're either huge, or just missed a decimal place. re-gap them to .024" or even smaller like .022 or .020 and see what happens.also, holy cow your VE table, I limit any tuning I do to a...

Tuesday I went to another car meet, still driving around a little before-hand and getting in a WOT tuning pull or two. At 30% duty cycle, the car spools up to 33psi, then levels off to 28psi. I really just want it to go to 28psi and stay there, so I dropped the duty down to 20% while...
I re-used the ballast, as well as all stock wiring for both fans. I clipped off the fan-side harnesses off the stock fans before I threw them out, and soldered them to the SPALs so they're plug-n-play with my oem 1g harness. When I want the AC fan, I just push in the hvac snowflake button to...
or for complete piping from stock turbo to throttle body for a little more, with a flange that will fit 1g bov or aftermarket bov:

here's a much better option to get rid of that hose and plastic pipe crap:

First and foremost, there's no wideband in the log.You are also missing a bunch of things that should be logged if you're on SD.I'll help you re-set up your whole link stuff if you want, find me on facebook, Tony Penza
did you throw out the stock fans ? you can clip the ends off those and re-use them, that's what I did.and if you deleted everything AC related, including that fuse/relay box near the brake booster, i don't know if the driver's fan would work in stock form. Might be easier just to wire both...
yea, assembled it as if i wasn't going to weld it(but without the lock-washer) , so all the parts as they should have been (per Josh), then welded it. mainly the nut to the rod, but then we expanded the weld down so all that we already did, also encompassed all around the 'S'-rodand after...
Feels real nice Marty, however I don't stay in it really long enough to tell, its a bit scary, but yours is more powerful than mine. So that's just preaching to the choir :PAnyway, decided to also pull the plugs and see how they looked, and time for a WTF moment:One of these things is...

Went to another car meet Tuesday night, pulled this:On the way home, pulling into the garage, the SCG-1 reset again. So I think I'm frying the o2 sensors having them in a tubular o2 housing, right in the stock location with a very short bung.So today I took my DP over to a...
