big restecp to dirt and guiltoy.

To be honest i was worried when i first jumped in the car, set the ignition timing without even having to turn the CAS, Mr Dirt opens the car door and says what about the timing, i explained to him we don't need to touch the CAS, all done on the software i could see he was a little worried too, little did he realise this is no power FC.. The Vi-Pec V88 was starting to impress him before the wheels were even turning on the Dyno which was funny, he spent the last 12 months talking up this ecu and then forgot how good it actualy was :laugh:

After about 5 mins, Paul comes to the door and just watched the auto tune in progress, i looked up to look at him and then he smiled, looked at the pc and in green read "target reached"

After about 15 minutes i was checking the iat, checking the ect and the oil temp's and everything was fine.. It was then I realise i was not tuning a car built in someone's back yard, always checking stuff for issues or over heating issues, this thing did not go over 85deg and was just running for the most constant time i have ever run a car on a dyno, when changing gears and hearing that box crack the gears i realised I was tuning a Properly Built Race Car that was tough as nails then my confidence started to come back to me and we managed to map the whole car from 0 to 7000rpm in about a hour and a bit..

We ran out of time because Wayne @ Hunter All Wheel Dyno wanted to go home cos he was there all day for us, what a champion!

More tuning to be done this weekend, Twoogle & Guilt-Toy should be ready for power cruise on saturday i hope.

Bring on the power runs!!! 500rwkw & 400rwkw the mission for this weekend!

Ever thought of becoming a writer Anthony? :laugh:

Surely it will go over 500awkw, hell, the little GTRS's did that so the single should manage it easy

of course it will...but flogging an engine from the get go on pump fuel is not my thing.

Cool cool

'Little' GT-RS's? :)

In relation to the single :D

They've got stock like response on my GTR though ;)

was that just WOT or everything inbetween?

The whole map from 500rpm to 7000rpm has been mapped from the little amount of vacume that this engine gets to full throttle.

Power runs is the next step from here to map the rest of the car and clean up.

Should only be a hour dyno work + 15 mins on the street to get it right. I am not in a hurry with this car. If it takes longer then so be it.

well theres some pretty damn good positives

next tuning sess. are you able to get afr and timing plots vs rpm?

vacuum...what vacuum? I wasn't aware my engine produced vacuum.

Yeah the Vi-Pec has some awesome software / hardware loging capabilities. You can record / play back the run and it has 4mb of internal loging which logs the data even when the laptop is not connected which is enough for a track day or 2 worth of data.

Yes. It does venture into vaccume when cruising, its only on idle where there is no vacume :P

it's a V8 isn't it?

nah thats my car.. and only in a place full of yobbo's :P
