I have a pfc in my gtr and i am very happy with it ,people say the hand controls time consuming but you need laytop to change anything on most others and the metering by handcontrol is extremely handy to someone like myself as with pikehold and map tracking i can learn a lot from a run down the slip or lap of circuit etc. and the only thing they put against it is afm well spend a couple of hours with some well made piping and you'll never have to think of them again cruise and idle control are awesome even when i'm tuned to over 500hp it purrs like a kitty .

two of my good mates have just ordered pfc for there gtrs in group buy $987 to your door

so i think your mad if you look past pfc for a street gtr

Don't want to side track this thread, but quickly, what is rotational idle??

Drops a different cylinder out for each crankshaft revolution by dropping the fuel at that cylinder.

Doesn't fire so cools down that cylinder quickly.

Very few computers can do that and none of the ones on this thread can( in PandP form ).

Cheers

The Wolf3D in Plug'n'play can't do rotational idle ?

Is the non PnP model more expensive ?

I'm sure this is gonna bite me but the non pandp wired into the car and tuned will be virtually the same money as an Autronic SMC.

Some shops love em , some hate em .

We like the Autronic product and have good success with it.

BTW , the fastest street S13 silvia in WA runs one.....

Ken lah..

does this mean there are 2 types of Wolf3D, the PnP and the other version and the PnP does not have all the features?

Simon, read my post above re. rotational idle.

Autronics does it , Motec does it, Link does it

Wolf does not do it and never has....

Cheers

Ken

Are you sure you have been wrong before.

Anyone that wants a demo on rotational idle come in we have it sorted right now.

*Sigh*

I knew this was gonna happen.

As per my post re how rotational happens on most computers , that is it drops an alternate cylinder each rotation.

Does the wolf do that?

Or does it just hunt up and down as per 2 of the ones we have had in here?

I have no intention in getting into a war over this Steve and if thats what the Wolf calls rotational idle then that's fine.

Would be better to get the customer to compare it with an autronic , motec or Link rotational and make there descision from there.

On the Wolf website where does it mention rotational idle? This is purely a question and not having a go at you.

As has been stated on previous threads before, if the information is shared around amongst the tuners in Perth then everyone could benefit from the increased knowledge of the product .

The keeping of the information to the main dealer in WA makes it hard for the rest of the shops to tune these things to the best of there capabilities.

Cheers as always

Ken

      The oil pressure sensor for logging, does it happen to be the one that was slowly breaking out of the oil block? If it is,I would be ignoring your logs. You had a leak at the sensor which would mean it can't read accurately. It's a small hole at the sensor, and you had a small hole just before it, meaning you could have lost significant pressure reading.   As for brakes, if it's just fluid getting old, you won't necessarily end up with air sitting in the line. Bleed a shit tonne of fluid through so you effectively replace it and go again. Oh and, pay close attention to the pressure gauge while on track!

      I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.

      Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.

      I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
