Btw, thanks to all who helped me in the last couple of weeks wit questions and parts. Got dyno'd last week from Matt Spry at 183 rw at 11 psi. I'm quite happy with that with my current setup.

What if you wanted to change some parts which required corrections to the PFC? eg; injectors or AFM. That would mean you would have to drive all the way to the coast to make an adjustment that would normally take about 20 seconds. I don't see any benefit. I don't leave my car with monkeys, so nobody is ever going to be "stuffing" with my PFC.

Say you did leave your car with a workshop that you were unfamiliar with and you wanted to set the limiter to say 4000rpm just to be on the safe side, no can do without a trip to PITS....

Yeah not making any defence for Matt, just saying he asked me if I did or didnt want it locked and I saw the benifit. He was more than happy to provide the password for another tuner to unlock it also...

He simply offers the lock to prevent people from messing with it... I saw the advantage and took him up on his offer...

PS. You can still change basic settings while the pfc is locked, as the lock only prevents the injection maps and ignition maps to be locked. The rest is still good to go, ie AFM change and rev limits...

So what im saying is I had a choice, Matt gives everyone the choice and give the password at the drop of a hat if needed...

Allstar is the name of his work shop.

His details are in the dyno thread in my signature as the dyno day is at his workshop tomorrow...

    • This. The R34 handbrake icon DOES come up when the brake fluid level is low. You might be sitting right on that threshhold. I have been down this diagnosis path and this was the solution (and it was pretty much as full as your picture is to begin with).
    • Unfortunately the cavaet to that is that while any scan tool should be able to read the code, the workshop will need a consult plug to OBD socket adapter. You don't have a location on your profile, where are you based?
    • @Haggerty this is your red flag. In MAP based ECU's the Manifold pressure X RPM calculation is how the engine knows it is actually...running/going through ANY load. You are confusing the term 'base map' with your base VE/Fuel table. When most people say 'base map' they mean the stock entire tune shipped with the ECU, hopefully aimed at a specific car/setup to use as a base for beginning to tune your specific car. Haltech has a lot of documentation (or at least they used to, I expect it to be better now). Read it voraciously.
    • I saw you mention this earlier and it raised a red flag, but I couldn't believe it was real. Yes, the vacuum signal should vary. It is the one and only load signal from the engine to the ECU, and it MUST vary. It is either not connected or is badly f**ked up in some way.
    • @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation.
