But we arn't talking about 1400rpm in 5th? We are talking about normal driving conditions; keeping up with traffic which may mean 0psi-2psi of boost.

Tune these area's to as lean as they can go (sure reduce a little response but who cares) and you WILL pick up fuel economy. Why tune light/part throttle for maximum throttle response.

Not arguing discussing.

I think I have simply missunderstood your line of thought or missed a prior post or something :(

The PFC's closed loop is closed loop, being 14.7:1, you cannot make it run leaner even if you wanted to. Tweaking of the inj. map is really all you can do, this attempts to bring afr's closer to the closed loops target afr.

Datalogit

Settings 1

"O2 Feedback"

Default is 1.047 lambda ie; 15.3 A/F ratio = around 1 volt on the lambda sensor output

Change it to whatever you like as long as the narrow and slow lambda sensor can read it

Tip, lean it out at pre boost rpm (load) and use the acceleration enrichment to get the throttle response

:) cheers :yes:

Im lucky because i can flick a switch and have a totally different Map for max performance or economy,Changes on the fly instantly.

I reckon you have 2 maps, one for "max performance" and one for "poorer performance". The fuel ecomony shouldn't change if the car is driven the same. Efficient combustion for power, is efficient combustion for fuel ecomomy.

Placebo effect, you flick the switch on the ECU for fuel economy and the brain gets switched at the same time. Hence better fuel economy.

The best fuel economy switch is the one under your right foot.

:sweat: cheers :(

PS; yes I have tested it, I set up a car some years ago with an economy/power switch (that did nothing). After a month of testing (the owner thought the switch leaned out the mixtures), bingo the economy position used 12% less fuel. You should have seen his face when I showed him an unconnected switch.

    • Well, I'm not clicking on a link to f**king bookface (never have, never will), so I can't really know what the complaint here is about, but.... There's nothing particularly wrong with forcing people to have a higher license category to drive super/hypercars. Note that the laws are not about modified cars - only listed standard cars, because there are not supposed to be cars modified enough to meet the law's category limits anyway. If you have a modified car that falls into those power limits you're already in trouble anyway. What is wrong is the bullshit on-line "test" to get the upgrade, instead of any actual work and training.
    • Meh Don't have Facebook anymore but watched a YouTube about it, they also talked about them not being able to use and "sports" modes, not really sure how they would enforce that apart from logging the Db for the cars that have exhaust valve activation in sports mode Apart from all the high end sports cars and supercars that make the sort of power they are talking about standard, I cannot see it bothering anyone else, unless of course road side tests now include having a dyno and scales on site to test the power output vs weight What is it? 500hp per ton? And if the only additional cost is $60 or so, as the video stated, I cannot see that being a war stopper for the people that outlay a few hundred thousand dollars on a performance car In fact, I see it would be a ego boost for some, because they have a "special" drivers licence for a "special"person with a "special" car And if I did have a modified car that made over the limit, there's no way in hell I would apply for a "special" licence, I could see the authorities checking your licence against your rego, so if old mate applied for a licence, but owns a, say, R33 Skyline, that may trigger an inspection of said car as to why, and how, that old mate has a R33 that would fit the bill of making over 500hp per ton Again, meh, not something I believe will be a real issue to 99.9% of people

    • Hi, I'm a new member who has been lurking for a while. Ive been looking to buy an R32, 33 or 34. GTT/GTST for some time now. I'm close to pulling the pin on one,. My question is around roadworthy certificates in Victoria. What can you get away with as far as mods go?  Would a car pass RWC with a haltech dash, aftermarket manifold and high mount turbo as long as ride height and noise was ok? I come from a muscle car background, I'm learning more about our beloved Skylines as I go. I don't want to drop my savings on something to find out I need thousands to get it on the road. Cheers for any input/advice.  
    • The first year I did Putty Road I was driving the old Honda Jazz work car. Being the rear vehicle of the 2nd or 3rd group to make sure no one got lost. The GTRs in front couldn't work out how I "was with them in the twisties"... They didn't like it when they found out I was only cruising and chilling in the Jazz like it was a Sunday drive with my Nan in the car.
