He knows nothing about ECUs but can get 600hp out of a 302 on pump, he wants a computer that he can install and tune. He is on a budget and had to sell the motec that was on it. Any suggestions? :D

We put our Xede processor on a VRX 380 and picked up 15-20rwkw throughout the entire rev range. Highway fuel consumption went from 10l/100km to 8.5L/100km.

what this exede thing?

Xede.com.au - its just an interceptor/piggyback system. Very user friendly and quick to tune. Its also very adaptable to lots of different task as you are able to change both axis variables and the varaible being changed you can also nest two 3d maps so the output of a function is derived from two tables. We use it on the EVO's, WRX, fords, porche's, lotus and whole bunch of other cars.

I searched and found that they have units that are much like mine (LT12) but they also have an option for a motec like self tuning with added senors.

The problem is they have no prices on thier site.

I dont think Richard Aubert(autronic)would like to here them being compared to a microtec!The way an autroni is tuned, they come with a base map(you enter a whole lot of info like injector size, comp ratio,etc)They have autotune, but they really should be tuned on a dyno, as autotune doesnt do timing adjustment. They are very similar in programability and results to a motec M800. PS Larry Perkins cracked the shits when CAMS told him he had to pull the Autronic out of his V8 supercar and use a Motec

Thats because Larry Perkins knew how much better they were than the MOTEC. And yes totally agree Microtech*infinity is still not an autronic.

      Ah right. Maybe my rb just loves chewing through batteries lol.

      R34 GTT idle problem

      By MBS206 · Posted

      On the R34 can't you just unplug the IACV? This is the way I've always done it on the R33. Disconnect IACV, get it idling around 650rpm, and then do a power reset on the ECU to get it to relearn idle (factory ECU).   The big reason no one has touched on as to why you'd want to get the base idle right, is that it means the computer needs to make smaller adjustments to get a good idle at 700-750rpm.   Also, cleaning the IACV won't normally make the car suddenly idle lower or higher. The main issue with the IACV gumming up is that the valve sticks. This means the inputs the ECU gives, aren't translating to changes in air flow. This can cause idle choppy ness as the ECU is now needing to give a lot of input to get movement, but then it moves too far, and then has to do the same in reverse, and it can mean the ECU can't catch stalls quickly either.

      12.8 for a great condition, fully charged battery. If the battery will only ever properly charge to about 12.2V, the battery is well worn, and will be dead soon. When I say properly charge, I mean disconnect it from the car, charge it to its max, and then put your multimeter on it, and see what it reads about an hour later. Dieing batteries will hold a higher "surface charge", but the minutest load, even from just a multimeter (which in the scheme of things is considered totally irrelevant, especially at this level) will be enough over an hour to make the surface charge disappear.   I spend wayyy too much time analysing battery voltages for customers when they whinge that our equipment (telematics device) is causing their battery to drain all the time. Nearly every case I can call it within about 2 months of when the battery will be completely dead. Our bigger customers don't even debate it with me any more ha ha ha. A battery at 12.4 to 12.6 I'd still be happy enough with. However, there's a lot of things that can cause a parasitic draw in a car, first of which is alarms and immobilisers. To start checking, put your multimeter into amps, (and then connect it properly) and measure your power draw with everything off. Typical car battery is about 40aH. Realistically, you'll get about half this before the car won't start. So a 100mA power drain will see you pretty much near unstartable in 8 days.

      Car should sit at 12.2 or more, maybe 12.6 or 12.7 when fully charged and happy. If there is a decent enough parasitic load then it will certainly go lower than 12.2 with time. You can't beat physics.

      Ok guess I can rule out the battery, probably even the starter and alternator (maybe) as well. I'm gonna clean those leads and see what happens if it's still shit I might take it to an auto electrician. Unless the immobiliser is that f**king heavy, but it shouldn't be.  If I start the car every day, starts up perfectly never an issue. Isn't 12v low, shouldn't it be around 12.5v?
