That'll be cool. I'm all booked to fly out this saturday to pick up the new daily driver that will only see weekends. Might have another car sorted too, in the V8 variety though. Perfect rig to put fmlywgn on the plates :P

Hey guys, jordan was sayin the orther nigh that there might be cruise on this weekend???

if notanyone intersested in the weekend after drags, a cruise out to standley chasm, or if anyone has any other good places maybe somewere up north???? post up ya replies

So where then?? make a suggestion.

What about Standley Chasm?? Not sure if they have BBQ set up though..

I rekon Dallas is still here though not seen him, just various cars at Street Torque and open shed, so someone is there.

Drag strip should be good. Hope it has coldish weather tho. 2:00 starts is in the middle of the heatwave lol. Excited about the car kurt? Should be good as. And hope it dont fail on you on the way backhere. That'll suck ass.

Good stuff Andrew, hope the scoop works :banana: and see what times the lil pulsa pushes!

Who is actually RUNNING in the drag? and is it test and tune runs or something else?

Yeah i'll be getting the rexy out there for last runs of the year. I want to see what the black wrx runs with just a cat back zorst.

Craig, drags will be grudge matches. No set bracket or anything like that. Just like a test and tune.

Fly out tommorow, be back tuesday night.

I can give ya a hand one night next week on that suspension jimmy, your just putting coils overs in yeah? My number is 0419856391. Let me know anyway.

    • @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.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.
