excuse my n00b but wtf is BR?

ps just got back from the guy at archie who does epic wheel alignments,

nicest dude, did my alignment and flip my rears (due to epic cronic badass camberwear)

if anyone needs a wheel alignment or a good chat, shud defs hit him up

:D

BR = Baskin Robbins, n00b

I have also used that guy at archie, and yes, he is a champion. Recommendation second'd

is that roy from bosman tyres?

he's great. did the wheels on the other half's festiva for a bargain price

yeh im gona go see him to, get some tyres for the hypers and the corolla at same time :)
make sure you take advantage of his free wheel alignment

i cant rave about him enough, coolest guy :)

i wana shred my current rubber just to pay him another visit :D

BR = Baskin Robbins, n00b

correction, its BnR fool!

sitting on bricks?

thats debateable - as it isnt a dyno king yet, so maybe not powerful enough to get their attention, so it could be..

however it might be in the future - so on the other hand maybe it isnt..

its the choice of whether you would rather the loyalty of someone who is ready to start spending cash on their car vs someone who has already spent their cash, (their car is "finished") - but is willing to put their sticker on the back windscreen..

oops :P

Haha you'd like that wouldnt ya :(

Heres some progress pics thanks to Whitey at EFI ;)

with that said,

the car does look delicious dan :)

cant wait to hear her at the next BnR night

:P

nuh-uh. BR dude says otherwise... and so does their website.

i had your back from day one and you dog me. :P

i prefer it when u just lurk and dont post :(

with that said,

the car does look delicious dan :)

cant wait to hear her at the next BnR night

:P

Thanks bro but its far from finished, Im hoping to get it back on Monday but more than likely will be ready Tuesday/Wednesday.

I dont really mind as long as its ready for BnR meet on Thursday ;)

Will post more pics up as i get them :(

    • @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.
