Check out this email I just received from an engineer at work . . .

He says

"Sorry but I just realised that the last design I sent you still has the cornered corners on it. This .arch is called exactly the same but has the rounded edges, which is what we want"

I say

"Cornered Corners? As opposed to un-cornered corners right ?"

He says

"have a look and you will see what I mean. cornered corners as opposed to rounded corners.

f*kin knew someone would be a smartass when I wrote that... f*kin knew it would be you too Dan... can't help yourself... can't believe I wrote it anyway"

I say

"I think you mean chamfered corners"

He says

"Chamfered is what i will say next time.

Thank you for the destructive criticism Dan. Always there for me.

I'll just go knock myself out then."

Chillin at the train station with my abo homies yo. Keepin it real.

Lol, hope you're packing man.... I wanted to actually come tonight. I went over to pick my car up, assuming the front bar and some other things will be fixed and its fkn worse than before.... Fkn repairers....

weak moistcoils weak!

Oh you know exactly what to say to make a girl blush!! :blush:

How come you're not out there???

Don't drink all their goon now.

@John thanks for the lift.

( note to self don't open beers straight after epic mountain run style driving )

@Tas thanks for looking at my car really appreciate it

@Skins stop typing and drink the damn beer

You ragging on me? MF/

Dry ice to get the deadner out ? Pfffttt thats the gay way. Fire is the way of the future.

@John thanks for the lift.

No worries man, anytime :D

lol we already discussed that when you were getting out of the car! Did you forget on the epic walk back to your house from where I dropped you off? :)

But the walk was so long back to my place I forgot.

    • @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.
