The Mafia

well, I'm afraid to say, he's the only decent safe tuner in mackay.... The other mob who I won't mention, have a bad habit of blowing motors to pieces...

yeah I know what you mean. Its got a nice curve, but mine just isn't making that power the whole way

so what do you suggest cubes? New tuner? lol

sure, here it is - rename it to .dat pcy081_final_tune.htm

thanks, and let me know if I could sneak anymore in the lower range safely. I could add 10 more degrees and see no knock but I dunno if thats dangerous or not. I dunno if too much advance is good or not.

$100 for the pods

deal, pm sent

you're going to kick your brother in the ass, right?

here is the Ignition map...pretty pathetic hey... It gives me a maximum of 20 knock on a hot 35 - 40 degree day. NOt sure on the WOT positions, but you can kind of see it on the fine tuning on the p13 and p14 rows. I don't think it gets any lower than that. timing.htm

damn thats a nice power figure. I only managed 218rwkw with a GT30r and 470nm or torque I think. Torque was there but lat in the rev range (5k) Here is my ignition map - (95 ron fuel) anyone wanna post theirs up to compare to mine? timing.htm

my tuner also mentioned that Ethanol absorbing water (which can reduce detonation) will also loosen crap in your tank, and ethanol being an alcohol will clean crap from everywhere. If it gets past your filter, it will clog injectors,and cause your car to run lean because the ECU thinks the injectors are working ok, but it fact they are blocked, causing leaning, and causing detonation. So its not really the E10 that kills cars.. He said that if you do switch to E10 (which is not a bad option when its available evrywhere) you should change your fuel filter every 3-4 weeks for a few months to make sure your system being cleaned by ethanol is being filtered properly. He said ethanol is great to tune to, as its resistant to detonation to a small extent, and can have a fair amount of extra timing advance put in (he's seen 5 - 10 degrees in some cases) Don't take my tuners words as gospel, its just what he's experienced while using it.

I think I am in love...lol Whats the go with that strut holding th motor? Stop flex?

do you have a vent to atmosphere BOV? If so, then thats your problem. Its dumping air that the ECU thinks is going into the motor, and causing lots of fuel and no air to bog the car down, and pop between the gears from back fire.

is the wastegate arm still attached to the wastegate?

you have a powerfc...save yourself heaps of trouble and get the boost control kit.

bump - $80 plus postage

did the .8 housing make any difference in power and detonation levels?

you signed up, now all you gotta do is learn how to search. Been covered many times.

did he contact you with a resolution? as he asked for your email address. He is an honest guy. I trust him. He wouldn't rip anyone off.

omg... I am surprised you managed to work out how to sign up. Might want to work out the SEARCH button now. What you are asking for has been covered MANY times...

maybe you should SEARCH.....

one simple email, and I got this as a response - "OK will do. The package was insured, so will get onto our shipping agent and find out, or claim it and re-send."

what the? I paid the dude the money and he said he shipped them. How is this my fault? He said he contacted you directly and organised it with you. I will send him and email, but I wouldn't be making threats, as thats not going to help you at all.

nah, that method does like 2% difference.. Hardly worth it I reckon. And having it running all the time? I'd need to fill it up every second drive.. The one I am looking at has its own maf sensor, and will start th nozzle at a specified boost, and slowly increase the pressure as the boost increases. Its probably the smartest unit I have seen.

when I get some money together, I will let you know my results
