Friend has an unlimited Amazon cloud storage account (think it's $60 a year) hooked up to his synology 12 Bay nas.

Took a while but the whole things replicated to Amazon in case something goes wrong/stolen etc.

It's a great solution to hook your nas up to cloud storage for offsite and some will roll back changes if you get ransomware for example, any change after x time is just wiped out and you download it from them, have done this with Dropbox before.

 

Beauty of slow aussie uploads means if you get ransomware it'll take ages to replicate anyway haha

Could probably find some spare cloud space where I work...

 

 

Typically you can link up your NAS to dropbox,onedrive,google drive (just google your model and what you can do with it) most offer a few hundred gig free anyway which is fine for your typical backup of important holiday pictures, documents etc. 

Something to try and work out if you get the chance and can be f**ked 

Otherwise yeah like you've been doing copy stuff to it from your laptop so you've got it in 2 locations, the disadvantage of that is if you get robbed or house burns down all your data gone.

Ordered an ebay 2000w generator for tyre warmers @ the track Michael - seeing as you're a sparky, am I gonna die using it?

Don't get me wrong would of loved a Honda or Yamaha one.. but they're like $2k

I'm more interested in where you're doing track days that don't have power available..

Hope you got a warranty 

 

you see some many of these abandoned after Bathurst as didn't make it through the weekend

 

plus super noisy and forget 2000watts. Maybe a quick peak but yeah serious draw will kill them

 

reason the yam/Honda cost more

Murray Valley, Broadford (race days where you need to pay for garage or limited availability), South Morang Gokart track etc.

Yeah one year warranty, she'll be right looked at some reviews. The warmers will only draw about 1000watts this thing is rated for 1700 running. 

Bathurst probably full of drunk people overloading them I guess? Mate of mine got an Aldi one and still going strong

    • @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.
