Wow learn something new every day...

I would've thought that light waves would've been more accurate than sound waves as there is less distortion (not to mention that light travels a whole lot faster). Hmm maybe not.

siksII you seem somewhat pleased that the highway officer pulled you over?~?~?

yes it may have read that way but trust me i am VERY ANNOYED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i guess i am trying to look at it in the best light possible to be less pissed off overall, as in i did not get defected and the cop was not a massive tool. but yes still very pissed off dont get me wrong!!! :(:teehee::O:(:D

now i feel bad for sounding positive about it, maybe i should edit my post make it sound more grim :O:(

FYI, Radio waves /= (do not equal) sound waves.

Radio waves are part of the EM spectrum, which includes Gamma Rays, X-Rays, Infra-Red, Radio, Light, Microwaves etc.

There's no "distortion" but there is a difference in the reflective, absorption, scattering and interference properties between Radio and Light (visible or otherwise) Radiation.

Also light speed is a constant (although this is in debate) - and thus all electromagnetic waves, whether they are light or radio or x-ray in nature (the names merely refer to the frequency of the EM wave) - all of them travel the same speed...

So today is your lucky day, you have in fact learnt two things. :sorcerer:

I'm not convinced its a cop either.

Security guards always tell people to move on, and they often have different radios and such. Not uncommon to see them in their own cars either.

Only strange thing is that he had a siren. But its no real trouble to get that.

came across a XR8 middle eastern operations unit undercover vehicle... they were bothering these Greek boys who were standing next to their GTs and susing them out accusing them they were middle eastern.

    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
    • Yes sir am asking is there possible way from aem tuner from wiring pins 
    • Have you checked cam to crank timing and confirmed balancer marks are correct?
