Will be increasing boost, don't think stock 8 will be able to hold. 8MR bov was the other option but it's pretty similarly priced, so the TS should be good choice for me. Dual Port for options, but emo doesn't like atmo usually anyway iirc.
no car likes atmospheric BOV it's part of the reason cars don't have them from factory lol

I wouldn't recommend it...

When tuning you push the car hard to find its maximum, then you take out a little bit as a safety margin to accomodate for hot days, slightly different fuel, etc... If you tune on a crazy hot day then the maximum is going to be lower, and then you're never going to be sure just how much of a margin to take out... My last tune with Trent was fuarken hot, think it was a 40c day. His ventilation is pretty good, but it was sucking in the air from above his factory through the roof which was still pretty damn warm so the car was getting really hot and pinging off its tits.

If you can reschedule, I would... but who knows their schedule and when they can fit you in next.

Cheers man, sort of in line with my train of thought too. It isn't booked in firmly yet, so I think i'll leave it for the following week pending temp drop.

not sure about that, mine get faster laps when venting atm rather than reciric

you can feel the diffrenernce on lift off the revs drop much faster handy when braking.

That doesn't mean your car likes it, that just means you like what it does

the worst the car gets out of it is a little rich for a second.

and a few flames.

nothing I would classify as overly bad.

I run recirc on the street and vent on the track, it's tuned venting and seems to work.

Maybe on the track. I always found the surge annoying when you slowly decel.

yes well as said even just for convenience factor I ran it recirc on the street.

as when you lift off it does lose everything instantly, good for when I'm hitting brakes.

so decided too lazy to finish car for around the bay tomorrow rolling with comfy mazda3 style

Hey tard muffins,

I'm having my Annual Australia Day BBQ / Triple J Hottest 100 Party on the 26th (obviously)

All you regular wastelanders are invited (especially if you own a 34r and would like to come have a chat with Birds) to come and chill in the sunshine with a few beers and talk some shite :)

Let me know if you're interested and I'll add you to the facebook event.

Cheeeers

Bout 40c for most of next week here too... What's it like there when it gets hot? Dry as all hell?

Yeah very dry and sunny. Then the thunderstorms and cyclones come through.

Had to shut last week because of cyclone. Lost power for a couple hours.

    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
    • Nah, that is hella wrong. If I do a simple linear between 150°C (0.407v) and 50°C (2.98v) I get the formula Temperature = -38.8651*voltage + 165.8181 It is perfectly correct at 50 and 150, but it is as much as 20° out in the region of 110°C, because the actual data is significantly non-linear there. It is no more than 4° out down at the lowest temperatures, but is is seriously shit almost everywhere. I cannot believe that the instruction is to do a 2 point linear fit. I would say the method I used previously would have to be better.
