Having the PM stand up for you is the ultimate spoilt sport.

It's like your mum coming to school to tell kids to not pick on you.

He already had his mum tell the mean people to stop picking on him..

On the side of the road I saw a white van with a weird surveillance looking camera near it on the way to work the other day - thought it was surveying or something. 500 metres up ahead I saw cops on the corner outside my work, one of them with a traffic directing strobe...he was ushering cars into the side street...had about 6 of them pulled over. All dicked for unpaid fines, no rego etc. Was surprised a brand new looking Mini Cooper S was among them and stayed there for 2 days before being collected.

Nothing Ever Really Dies...

First time you've ever seen a rego scanning station?

Obviously not from the west.

First time seeing one as subtle as deviant and subtle as this - never even had a chance to get away. That's a certain east side copper flamin mongrelness.

It's obviously a culture amongst MPs - if you were an MP and found yourself in circles where they were claiming infinite amounts of shit you'd prolly do the same.

Still, dream boats. This is why I don't trust any politicians, they are doing the job for the money and fame - to get where they are they stopped caring about their causes many years ago - now the actions are dictated by $$$

Bronwyn Bishop was just a sacrificial lamb for the whole parliament full or fk wits. Suddenly a $5000 chopper ride doesn't seem so significant anymore :/

Went for a job interview on Thursday afternoon. I deliberately let it slip to the biggest gossip in the office, took about 45 minutes to get back to the CEO... So predictable... Friday morning got called into a meeting with HR here to ask about it, lel... Friday afternoon we all went out to the local microbrewery for lunch (pre-planned) and a happy birthday thing for me. Awkward As Ferk.

Needless to say, it'll be interesting over the next week, will see if anything changes in the company after my stern feedback about the management style... or if nothing changes and they give me a further raise (had a tiny one after my KPI review 2 weeks ago) to keep me with the company or let me go / start issuing warnings for non-issues like I've seen them do in the past.

    • @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.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.
