Educated Guess At The Final Tune Results


Recommended Posts

Dropped the car off yesterday.

I was upstairs waiting for a lift to the station and unknown to me they had taken the car and put it on the Dyno and did a few runs , after a while I was taken down to watch and the car went to 8000rpm in 5th ???????

I could not even free rev it to 5500rpm and hold it there without it farting and blowing black, farked if I know ?

Anyway , cannot wait to have it sorted :)

Did they make changes to the tune so it would rev cleanly?

Anyway, as mentioned I would hope they drive it in the road to confirm the issue is gone.

Would be nice to see a dyno printout with the Afr shown.

Can't wait for it to be all sorted !

So why didn't you take them for a drive so they could asses the problem when driven normally?

You cannot drive it like that in a 60 zone.

They will have to do it , I am sure they have somewhere to take it for this type of thing, I am sure they do not want to give it back before it is OK?

Be interesting to find out where the water is going :/

I hate being suspicious but , 2 minds think alike, maybe tweaked before or a hose off/loose, then they got me to have a look , I have no idea??

But as long as they fix it I do not care :)

They only ever seem to run one type of Dyno readouts.

so it wouldn't be some kind of surge( fuel, oil) from accelerating so hard would it? cant remember what you did to it now...

That would of sounded angry... take any vids??

I never had the fuel under 1/3rd , they told me not to go below 1/4 until I get a surge tank if I am going to push t a little,

Had a 9Lt custom sump.

No Vids

He said he couldn't even free rev it above 5500.

Seriously dude. You should have taken them and shown them what the problem is.

But I still hope they find the issues

NO, I free revved it and sitting on 5500rpm it started farting.

They have to work it out, all they have to do is drive it , they will fix it, no problem :)

I just wonder if they tweaked it yesterday on the dyno, it never went over 7000rpm without sounding like you hit the limiter but it is set at 8500rpm

    • There is a LOT of stuff that can be done, it all depends on how much time and money you want to spend on doing in.  Not all ECUs will be able to do it, and the more control you need the more time and knowledge needs to be put into making it work.  If you're willing to spend the time and money and have the right hardware and skills involved there's a lot that can be done. 
    • I am impressed with all this level of adjustment. I didn't expect all this possibility
    • Correct.  In the case of the 500kw dyno plot I showed you the car actually runs two boost control solenoids for boost control and a 5psi wastegate spring.  It allows me to control how much boost pressure is applied to both sides of the wastegate valve at any point and fairly accurately control boost target as a result. I've tuned it so that it's able to target anywhere from 5psi to 25psi depending on what's needed.  The target tables I've set up in that car are Gear vs RPM, so every gear has potential for a different boost (and torque) curve.   First and second gear have quite low boost targets, third gear actually has different target boost all the way through the rpm range as it's a stock RB25 gearbox - the boost targets have been chosen to maintain a peak of 600nm (what the owner has set as the maximum torque he's happy with putting through the stock 3rd gear) but it carries that to the rev limiter.   The boost curve to achieve that is something of a ramp up, then hold, then ramp up again and the power curve looks more like a flat line haha.  
    • so you can decrease or increase the boost depending on the diet as you wish?     by acting on the wastegate?
    • That's torque and power, it's all from a single run.  The boost curve is "held back" from it's peak target in the 3500rpm to 5000rpm range from memory, so it ramps hard to something like 18psi then climbs more progressively to 23psi nearer 5000rpm.   It makes the torque (and power) ramp more "natural" and less hard on parts and traction, it doesn't feel artificially held back.
