yeah was a bit much. He charged me for 3 and a half hours labour and 1 hour on the dyno.

Said he had some problems with the boost settings i wanted and it took him ages to fix and he had to fab some sort of T piece. ****ed if i know. paid him anyway.

Here are the results:

Note that this is run on 95RON fuel which is the best we can get down here and without any additives.

Looking at the dyno graph (particularly the A/F ratios) it's a pretty good job. Personally I don't mind paying a bit extra for a proper result.;)

PS; not only did he do a go job tuning but it also shows how good the algorithm in the SAFC is for extrapolating between the load points. Who needs more load points when it is that good. :aroused:

yeah, i'm quite happy. the car delivers the power a lot smoother now.

I would have liked a bit more power. That dyno was run at 10psi.

He said we could squeeze more out of it if we had optimax down here as then he could advance the timing a little. As it is i don't think he advanced it at all.

Mine on 95ron with stock everything was unable to run any more ignition timing as it would ping.

Popped the 98 RON in and I was able to throw in 6degree's more ignition timing.

The good fuel will come. :D

When I first bought my R32 only a small number of servo's had 98ron. Everything else was the plain on 'Premium'

Does the SAFC need be tuned for hot and cold weather, or can they be tuned in any weather and then the Std ECU deals with the changes in temperature?

The Std ECU deals with the changes in temperature:cheers:

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
