Garage 101 - Haltech Tech Night With Matt Leicher


Recommended Posts

Peeps,

no longer in WA but there is a tech night @ garage 101. Matt Leicher will be dropping into Garage 101 to do a TECH / Q&A / INFO Night

The night will be a pretty casual Q & A format but we will start with a basic rundown on general ECU function, then a product range overview and then onto the tech side of things where we will demonstrate functions of the PS2000 and the Platinum Pro units on a couple of cars.

- No charge to attend BUT PLEASE EMAIL EXPRESSION OF INTEREST (RSVP) to details below
- The night starts at 6:30 and will go on till whatever time the questions and pizzas run out.
- Write down any questions you have - don’t be shy, no questions to small or big!
- Info on all levels of street and race applications
- You don’t need to own or be in the market to purchase a Haltech product to attend.
- NO dyno demonstrations at this event
- Please forward this onto anyone you know who may be interested

NOTE: The choice of ECU is arguably the most important decision you will make for your performance car. Come along and ask questions, listen to others and get a better understanding of why that is the case.

Date: Friday 23rd August
Time: 6:30 pm onwards
Venue: Garage101 (New Workshop address)
70 Mcdonald Street (East)
Osborne Park 6017

    • I have copied the images in the original post from photobucket to the SAU servers to make sure they stay available.
    • Mate you saved be from dying in the Perth summer. AC wasn't changing direction and just going into diagnostics mode fixed it. You're a legend and I would shout you a beer if I could!
    • Unfortunately effort gone to waste, you will have substantial issues with how the manifold and wastegate have been integrated. You would be so much better off with a modified stock manifold like this: https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25detexgatedmanifold/   OR literally just getting a off the shelf Sinco or 6Boost manifold as myself and others have mentioned.  
    • Yuck. But it's kinda the same principle, moving timing around to make car run bad but sound good.... I went for a more spirited tuning drive to iron out a few things. Car no longer stalls, and it loved to dip RPM low when you clutch in. After tuning this (and the 4-5 tables that HPTuners/LS1 OEM ECU wants for idle air correction) it's now behaving somewhat normal. All expected because there's a new TB, new Intake manifold and that new TB which is 102mm vs 78... has an entirely different IAC passage which is smaller because ????? Unfortunately at this point I went to make further fine tuning changes to avoid it flaring up, you know... _tuning_ the HPTuners dongle died. Well to be more accurate - The USB cable died in a fashion that anyone who has ever charged a phone will recognize. After the app demanding I resync it 50 or so times (which all 'succeeded' but all failed) the device does not want to sync and I've logged a ticket with support to see if it's fixable. US Support said it was a 'storage issue' but after removing the SD card inside it and formatting it/fixing it the issue does persist. Unfortunately usually the fix is "Turn in your old dongle and pay $700 for the upgraded one" it's cheaper because I get some free licence credits I unfortunately don't need. However I'm 10 minutes down the road from HP Tuners AUS/VCM so at least I won't need to post it, and logged a new ticket for support over here. Definitely drives different. My SOTP dyno believes it's probably making 310-320kw instead of the 280 before.  It scrambles for traction a little now whereas it previously different. It drives like a bigger cam car up top even though the cam is smaller, likely due to the cam not being advanced 6 degrees. The timing is deliberately low and the fuel is very rich so who knows if this will improve on the dyno. It may, imperceptably. Also funny is removing the pineapples definitely makes the car squat more and axle tramp less. So this behavior of having more top end, squatting more, and scrabbling for traction more makes me think = more power. But I could have just been sitting on the threshold of that kind of behavior before. Time will tell if my butt dyno is calibrated right. I need the exhaust leaks fixed before dyno tune for obvious AFR related reasons - I repositioned the pipes but I'm not confident it's fully sealed even if it is better. At least the car does drive around while I cannot tweak/tune it for now. And I have aircon again. medium success!
