i got the instruction manual for the wideband i want to make sure it's going to be useful before i get it.

"The Bar Graph Display (BGD) Range Setting Mode allows you to fine tune the resolution of this instrument for your specific application. With upper and lower set point adjustability, you can set the BGD to utilize the exact range that the engine / vehicle operates within and see exactly how rich or lean you are running in relation to your current set up and tune. Adjusting your BGD limits also adjusts the scaling of the 0-4v data logger output supplied from the gauge. The selected low set point of the BGD Range becomes the 0v value of the data logger output. The selected high set point of the BGD Range becomes the 4v value of the data logger output. Whenever you change these points, the instrument adjusts the data logger output so that the 0-4v signal is always linear between your chosen set points. "

Looks pretty good Theo. WOT input looks interesting, mine doesn't have that. Although the Innovate's have a built in data logger, whereas the Auto Meter seems to want one connected (which is probably the output you'd use for the F-con).

But at the end of the day it depends on whether the tuner wants to use it constantly, or whether you just use one of those ones you can stick in the tailpipe for the day.

My dyno has its own wideband that logs afr to the graph.

I have 2 standalone widebands that can be used for datalogging or roadtuning.

I recommend putting the wideband in for piece of mind, can then see if u have a lean out etc due to fuel surge or fuel pump failures etc

Howd it go today Theo :)

So all ur worry was a false alarm, the 02 sensor reading in the cypher software the Alex was reading from has no bearing on what the actual AFR's are. Tune was fine except for the 1 area which u heard a ping at low rpm high load which was very difficult to replicate on the dyno due to the auto but i found it and fixed it.

Ps, nice single pegger skid when u left :P

Very interesting today Jez- so we know stock ECU > Theos aftermarket computer> motor.

And I can only read what the stockie puts out.

Had a great run coming back down the old Pac- volvo convoy.

Nice :)

Yeah was very weird, especially how much difference there was in the ignition timing output from his aftermarket ecu to ur software

So second tune and no gains? C'mon Theo, slap a Hypergear in there... :P

All the stock ecu does now Alex is run the throttle and cams, nothing else has a bearing other than to keep the MIL away. I have no idea what signals the Fcon sends back to keep it happy but whatever it is, thank you mr HKS.

Jez also found some little parts of the pre-loaded tune that were no so good - and sorted them out.

I've got some logs from the power runs. Might load them if I can be stuffed

That's why I wouldn't use maps designed for other cars, you will always end up chasing gremlins in the tune imo.

Post them up Alex, I would be interested to learn what the Fcon is doing to the stock ecu and that may hold the key. If I end up going down the Link G4 route I may need the same signal bending output maps... The manual transmission will open up a world of possibilities. ;)

Honestly i wouldnt trust the log files as even the timing etc is way off

Exactly right.

As I said it goes Stock ECU > aftermarket>engine.

So Ign timing is not correct for the engine, but other things like Cams, AFM, and BFS are all able to be seen accurately.

    • If that's the wiring from the factory, I'd be inspecting the loom everywhere.   Any signs of that anywhere else, and seriously, I'd get rid of the car ASAP before the electrical gremlins make it worthless, or it goes up in flames on its own. That is scary how that insulation is failing!
    • I should note too as I have all 4 wheel speed inputs to the emtron I now have the emtron controlling the attessa solenoid for 4wd/traction and launch control strategies. 
    • It works quite well with the adjustibility within each of the programs of the turbolamik. Essentially p1 is drive and lockup comes on like a normal driver.  But in program 7 I have customised it to not request the lockup clutch to engage until something like 6500/7 when slip was the lowest. 
    • Yep, I like that. The tags are only on the first post of a thread and we don't get huge numbers of new threads. Also, I plan to add some more report types and we could have a member report type like 'review tags' then members could flag if they thought a topic wasn't tagged correctly.  No way man, I dig the input. Thanks! 
    • It's a valid thought. There's not exactly that functionality already (when creating a thread) - that's where the OP can use/create any tag they want. We'd have to come up with a way for the user to request their tags get reviewed or something. Otherwise the mods would have to review every new post's tags (for those that have them, anyway). There's kind of that functionality already exists to some extent, post facto of starting the thread, where the OP or any other user could report the post to admins, and request that tags get reviewed. We could do this already, and any user could already have made such a request. To make it a part of the forum proper, it would require an initial and an ongoing education programme, so that people know that it's a thing. OP based tagging/request for review would also require at least some (probably most) of the user base to be told that it's a thing they can do. Both of these things probably wouldn't spread too far and/or get used very much. If it was the standard approach on a lot of different sites, then it might do, because people would be used to it. Prank's approach to this differs from my original thought, by leaning into tagging. Which is fine - it's possibly better than what I originally suggested. In fact, I just went to the R32 GTR wiring diagram thread and added tags, including "Library". That's probably a good way to use tags and the idea of a library. We just have to drag together an (organised!) index of threads or posts that have that tag. I have yet to do any of my own follow up by pursuing worthy threads and posts and reporting/marking/tagging them for the library, such as the @Sydneykid stuff I was talking about, and possibly any amount of @Lithium 's and others' posts. At least if I tag them Library, we'll have a start.   Back to @Wazmond's idea as it relates to @PranK's, we might have some sort of a list of tags that are already used to scrape for this library. I'm not entirely sure how that would be presented or used, particularly if it got long. But it's yet another idea!   cheers
