do we have any solid info? what day? what time? how much? interested in having a crack.....

i'm not 100% sure what constitutes solid info, but it's on the 16th and is $120, all day. as posted earlier. :D

oh....it sounded like the amount was 120ish and ppl sounded like the day was still being decided.

i will look to see if i can make it.....hope so...but i dont have any good tyres except for my 19" rims.....oh well

Brendan,

doesnt really matter mate, but most guys from here are considering 16th.

They normally have like 3-4 each month so Im sure we can organise a good day soon!

Still not sure if I could get day off for 16th

Might see how the friday goes?

nice. glad you can hang up that N1 pump on the wall where it belongs...

yeah, i'm trying to coax john out, but he is a bit unsure as it may be a bit too cold for his cardigan. don't worry i'll get him out there.

GTR Jason this sounds interesting. I will probably go if you Baron and Paul L, Ports is going, sounds like a party. I could bring another trade in to thrash around and have another driver challenge with??

how about we do the driver challenge in your zed instead? I bags going first.

dammit.

there was the practice day today :action-smiley-069:

farkin

:wave:

Come on Chris, I really think that you have a 24 hour flu due to hit you next Wednesdy :blink:

So who is a definite for next Wednesday (16/05/07)?

I am 80% that I will be there at the moment.

Any meet up points?

What time will everyone be arriving?

    • @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. 
    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
