I decided to attach a picture of a dyno sheet of my car. This was done a few weeks ago and I wasn’t going to post it as the power rating/figure doesn’t mean squat. I am just showing you a comparison between the wolf 3d ecu and the factory ecu.

Back round info:

This was done, as I wasn’t happy with my dyno result on the Dr_Drift Dyno day. My mechanic is in the process of purchasing a dyno, so the rep. from dyno dynamics brought the dyno to the w/shop to demonstrate all its operations. (Lucky for me, my car was the test car :P)

Now the rep did all the setting up and driving, whilst my mechanic was in the passenger seat, I was on the sidelines. So if the dyno dynamic rep. can’t do an accurate run, who can? (Read: This is a true reading of the car’s rwkw). I also put my factory rims back on, as I knew my 19 “s would produce a lower kW reading (physics)

After doing a few runs with the wolf, we plugged back in the factory ecu to see the difference. A couple of runs were done on the ecu with the same results. I do not know if the ecu needs time to recalibrate itself after being unplugged, but the results were huge. Also, before buying the wolf the car would backfire and loose power while on hi-boost, this is what prompted me to get the wolf 3d.

*All runs were done without the huge fan at the front of the car, as there was no room on the dyno dynamics trailer to fit it. Thus, intake temps. would have been higher than normal.

Mods:

13psi

Fmic

Sealed pod

3” exhaust, turbo back

H/D clutch

PS:

-Looking at the graph I feel some more gains (without effecting drivability, or a/f ratios above 12.2) could be had with more tunning, am I right or does the graph look good? (Especially around the dip btw 2500-4500rpm, and the peak power at 6100rpm)

PPS:

- The “MAX 140.0 kW” was for the factory ecu, the wolf 3d made 189.7 kW (NOT in ‘shoot out’ mode)

You could lean off a bit more mid range fuel and maybe whack a bit more timing in there as well....It starts tapering off after the VCT kicks in sometimes u cant possibly produce more power before that range

I see the stock ecu fuel economy was much better I would lean that out as well i guess its not a priority when everyone is looking at "boost" figures and fine tuning the low end wont give you gains. I would look into it tho

The wolf is like 10.0:1 as boost comes on u could bring it back up to the level as the standard ecu lthats prolly why u arent getting any more hp there..Ur much richer, however your timing advancement is probably way superior and thats why the line follows your stock curve until about 4k then yeeha!

    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
    • Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve. 
    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
