Can i please explain myself?

My post was not meant to be a "oh boo hoo I wasnt invited wah wah cry cry" I was just stating the fact that my feelings were hurt plain and simple.

This community used to be all open and all events were open for anyone, but now that has changed.

Just because several members here have decided to become their own club should not really matter, they can do wht they want to, but you guys have to realise that you will hurt people feelings, and usually that is expressed by anger and jealosy, both of which will push your group futher away from our open culture which is enjoyed by all members of SAU.

I still consider you guys freinds and do believe that you should be welcome at any SAU event, but it's human nature. It is great that you have all got a group you are all happy with, but having it closed is not what i believe is what SAU is all about.

In the end I should have the same feeling towards me as I am on another totally seperate forum and I do organise other cruises and not invite SAU members, why, because if you were a member of that site you would be invited.

Also there should be alot of anger directed at me for I am organising a little dodgy thing tonight and havent bothered to post up an open invite, why, just because i didnt think of it, I honestly didnt think to post it up.

Now I am doing the same things as these guys, but on a slighty smaller scale, should i be treated as these people are? Do I deserve to be? Do they? HELL NO!

Grow up people, so they have their own little group so what, who cares, they have lives to live and should be able to live it the way they please, just like you do.

No I am not a tk member nor do i plan on it, why because I like SAU and want to make it the BEST GOD DAMN forums on the EARTH!

Some people have a lot to learn about dodginess :D

I didnt see one cable tie or roll of duct tape used to hold on a structurally important piece of vehicle in any of those photos will :D

We don't reveal all our secrets geez!

']errrr, look closer on the BOV install. You may see a blue lid covering a pipe. They can be purchased from the new tuning house in Inala - Mt. Franklin Racing.

Ok fine, a few points there... But minus a million points for having a car that moves under its own power. *pats borked brutis*

    • @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.
