lol Brett - some smart (and I hear, good looking) mod mustve changed your post!

Anyway, back to the nationals; Why dont you guys put up a list of who's going in the first post listing who's car theyre going in, or if they have spare seats in their car etc

Wow did this thread get moving and whoring fast! I reckon a good place to meet would be Yass KFC... I'm pretty sure it's just on the hume highway side of Yass :)

Also, Nicole, myself, Richard and his son are staying at the quest too. I'm pretty sure...

Ask and ye shall receive :thumbsup:

Thankyou kind sir :D.

Somewhere around Yass seems about the go. That way the It's almost on the way for both parties.

what day are people planning on going down?

Looks like Ash has done the alterations for me!

I just paid. So I am locked in.

I suggest we leave pretty damn early for a few reasons.

1) It's a damn long way!

2) Between meeting up with people, fuel stops and toilet stops, it's only going to slow us down further!

3) As if you want to be arriving at 9 PM. Thats just rubbish.

I know it's a long way off but (atleast for us Sydney people) 6:30 - 7 AM at the Pheasents Nest Mobil which is on the Hume Highway (Seeing that we ALL MUST drive past it to get down there and you can't miss it)

Thoughts? Suggestions?

Pheasants Nest to Yass = 2.5 hours

Yass to Shepparton = 5 hours

If you leave at 7am should get to Shepparton at 3pm-ish

That's accounting for Google times always being easy to beat :D, but then that gets cancelled out by stops etc.

OK. From Pheasents Nest, according to where is it's 642 km and 6 hours 42 mins.

SO if we leave there at say 630 AM, we are going to arrive roughly 1:30 PM, or 6 AM and arrive at 1ish.

It's going to be a early rise and shine people :banana:

    • @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.
