Ignition map for R33 with Power FC??

[Cristian]

Hey guys,

Im wondering if anyone will be able to help me out at all.

On the weekend I will be installing a Power FC into my car (R33 S1). Has anyone got a ignition map they have used in their R33 and are happy with, and can I please get a copy of it, this way I have a good starting point.

I was after a map that is on a car that has a bigger then standard turbo running at least 12psi, as this is a setup I will be going for.

Regards,

Cristian

Umm you'll have to get it tuned. Even if someone had the exact same setup as you their map won't necessarily work for you.

Every car is different, the only area it will be very similiar is the light load areas of the map.

Do a quick map trace and see what load point it drops to.

Go to that area of the map and drop ignition timing to around 15degree's. This will prevent it pinging. Just to be safe. From memory you will be running insane ignition timing at WOT, not good for a high comp rb25det.

Drive it and get it tuned.

Will there be ignitoin map in the Power FC to start with?

If not, how can I do a "map trace"

I thought that If i could get a already proved map, I can adjust to what suits the car best, I thought this way awas better then re-inventing the wheel.

No it's better to get your car tuned professionally. It isn't exactly the same as re-inventing the wheel and there is no such thing as a "proved map". Yes there is a base ignition map to start with.

It will be tuned professionally.

I didnt realise that there was a map to start with, as when you do most other aftermarket ECU's for cars, you have to start from sracth.

The base map is tried and proven

Well light load anyway.

That's why the PFC is so popular, all the base stuff is loaded, plug it in and turn the key. Drive it gently to get tuned.
