Hi guys, strange results when I changed from stock to vg30/z32 AFM in the stagea.

While the old AFM was standard (as far as I know), the PFC was set to VG30/Z32.

With the actual Z32 AFM, it runs badly.

I am pretty sure the air flow curves for vg30 have been fiddled with along the line somewhere.

My VG30 settings are:

Volts 0 0.32 0.48 0.64 0.8 0.96 1.12 1.28 1.44 1.6 1.76 1.92 2.08 2.24 2.4 2.56 2.72 2.88 3.04 3.2 3.36 3.52 3.68 3.84 4 4.16 4.32 4.48 4.64 4.8 4.96 5.12

VG30 0 4 5 12 22 45 55 78 85 135 200 260 295 320 350 450 500 700 850 950 1200 1400 1600 2000 2200 2300 2800 3000 3200 3500 3800 4500

I found a partial screen shot from Trent which showed VG30 as

0 8 8 17 31 52 84 129 187 257 345

But the settings were not complete and I am not sure if they are stock.

Can someone with standard VG30 settings in their PFC and Datalogit please post up the correct standard values?

Full settings are here for reference:

air-flow-curves.xls

they're in the sample maps that come with fc-edit. if you dont have them then try re downloading the software. i'd upload a copy but dont have fc-edit on this computer

Excellent call, thanks mate.

I had been using the VH41 setting and the graph shows why it works....vh41 has the same AFM curve as VG30....

For reference, this is my vg30 curve vs standard afm vs standard vg30 curve vs vh41 curve.

No worries.

VH41 curve isnt the same as VG30, with that graph it'd be a much flatter line, higher airflow at low volts and lower airflow at high volts. Sounds like someones messed around with your afm tables a fair bit....

Found my copy of fc-edit and these are the standard settings for vg30 and vh41. You should be able to copy and paste these straight into fc-edit. Top row is VG30. At 2.08V both AFM's are flowing the same amount of air but below that the VH41 is flowing more and above that the VG30 is.

Excellent, thanks for checking this out. :cheers:

The numbers you provided above match what I got rom the default map for vg30 so that's good news.

No idea why everything else has been moved around...I'll clean them up over time, for now it just needs to run OK for a few weeks until a proper tune.

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
