has anyone else had there car tuned on ve cos ive been in cars with lag but this feels different it could be set up.in the top end you see the torque drop of it was explained to me that its cos of the cams need to be bigger tuning in volumetric efficiency  calculates the amount of air that can flow throw the engine

Tuning in 'VE' is just a way of making it easier for the the tuner to make changes and see what is going on, so long as it is a competent tuner the end result should be the same - if any tune isn't matched to the VE patterns of the engine then the mixtures will be all over the show. So really all tuning is VE tuning, it's just sometimes more obvious than others depending on the software ;-)

would that be a fuel AFR like bondi beach as i saw mine starts high waves up and down and at the end it at around 11.6 instead of a straight line what im use to.

If the efficiency of the engine drops off your VE numbers will tend to flatten out and sometimes run backwards.

That torque curve says it all. Add some more boost if you have a decent controller with rpm correction at the point where the torque curve falls over (150km/h). Power will keep climbing and torque curve will stay flatter.

do you think that he is pulling my leg about the cams

I'd be interested to see that curve - sounds a bit odd.

i have finely post a video up not the best but it gives an idea.

Looks like it goes well, hard to tell from clips but it seems on the laggy side to me though - could easily be wrong. Usually easier to tell when you can see rpm/boost. Enjoying it?

unfortunately i did not get a print out of the a/f ratio but it was as i said.lots of things are wrong,when it gets seen to ill post the report of things that are wrong.its not really enjoyable knowing it could be better after spending $1460

for eg

flats spots in the rev range

one value set up for anti lag instead of a map set at 23psi which is way to hi

boost setting set up wrong so that the car was spiking at 29psi every time

knock threshold not set up

if car stalls its hard to start

fouling plugs

+++++

so once i gets fixed im sure it will not be as laggy,im also getting a haltech wideband for the Ecu.

Clearly they can't tune! Going elsewhere or staying with them?

here is his map for the anti lag lunch control,

the other pics is how the map should look (it works it may not be the best but it works good)

Lets just keep the tone of the posts down in here, it's treading pretty closely to the line (and i've edited out some of the comments made thus far).

Be mindful that anything you post is only ever one side. Agree with it or not, that's how SAU is and needs to be to survive and keep the legal bills to a minimum around here

    • What 1.5 way? There's no such thing really as a 1.5 way, just different ways of explaining 2 ways with different ramp rates. HOWEVER. In any driving in a straight line your 1.5 or 2 or 1.7 way should have no clunking at all. With the clutch fully depressed the diff should be silent (unless it's welded but I'm assuming it's not). Something aint right here.
    • Clutch is a spec brand, new clutch system,( PP, flywheel, friction disc, etc. pull type) installed 100 miles ago, with no problems.
    • looking for some help and maybe some insight on others experience with a new LSD. R34 GT ran and drove beautifully, but always alot of grip loss due to the open R200 rear end, so I just installed a new 1.5 LSD way into the stock open R200 for a ER34. Simple. Everything seemed right. I test drove for the first time this weekend. as I started to back out the garage the first time slowly with tires straight it sounded and felt like I had a loose or half disconnected drive shaft...that was clucking around loose and shaking entire vehicle, and making it feel like the trans clutch was spontaneously slipping then grabbing very roughly while just letting out pedal slowly. I backed it out went to pull forward with the same noise, shake and slip grab feeling with hesitation, I turned the tires to back out more and then pulled ahead some same thing but worst because of added wheel resistance (which that I expected) puzzled … pulling it back in checking everything over and finding nothing wrong, I tried it the next day. same thing, couldn’t believe how it shook everything again making a terrible noise and making it feel like the trans clutch was slipping and grabbing, but I got it out of garage into the driveway, got it straight, drove forward and then reveres a few times in a straight line everything shaking , causing what felt like clutch slip and grab every time, sounded like right behind front driver tire and I could feel it in the floor board with my feet,... worst right when beginning to let clutch pedal out to engage slightly, shuttering and sounding terrible along the way…I managed to slowly get down the road, babying it the whole way, once I was rolling (out of 1st) seemed to be better and between shifts, then clutch felt closer to normal…not slip/ grab etc., but back down to any stop, straight road or turning, same thing. Made no difference if all tires were straight or if I was turning. All other gauge read out correct. with in 2 miles as planned I reached the empty parking lot and performed the break in procedure that came with lsd, essentially to drive in a figure 8 a bunch.  Did this, binding chattering, and shaking the car the whole way. I drove it back home seemed somewhat normal once I was in straight line and past 10 mph or so, and I know it will “bind” on corners and cause some tires squeal when turning especially from a stop, but when I begin to move it still causes what feels like the trans clutch to slip and jerk badly as well as shaking the entire car, and sounds terrible, that I didn’t expect. I used the fluid they supplied with LSD kit and did the breaking, planning to change fluid as they suggest after breaking, but wondering will it get smoother or less aggressive with use? maybe a 1.5 is just too aggressive for normal road driving?   I have a LSD that I put in my 71 cuda when I restored it, with amazing smooth , quite yet effective results. Different style LSD but that ones a joy to drive. maybe expecting too much from this R200?
