Damn I want one of those keyboards, it would save so much of my typing.

I have laughed at some threads and just closed them, no point at even attempting to have a conversation when it takes longer to decipher the message than it does to reply.

YES PLEASE PUT A STOP TO THIS type of da wryten stylez d00dz.

e.g. the term 'da' REALLY, REALLY fkn shits me. just stop it. u're not gangsta - quit trying dipshit.

even in an sms, i cringe everytime i see those two letters in that order surrounded by spaces. 'the' is ONLY ONE extra letter, just type it dammit.

One bloke at work. He is new and i m teaching him a bit of c++/java. He is looking at the line of code and he made a comment next to it:

while(something)

{

....

if (count < 32000)

count <<=1; //OMFG wot is this?

...

}

And I m like ... "yeah... too much foum talk for you buddy".

Some of the posts are totally not legible. But meh, it's all good. A lot of the people that have anything important to say (fixes, suggestions) type, for the most part, legibly.

One thing that irks me though is the use or incorrect use of your, you're, their, there, and they're all over the damn internet.

In 10 years time I bet there won't be a correct or incorrect way to use any of them, and they'll all be interchangeable.

I've been known to incorrectly use your and you're but not because I don't know the difference, just because of the speed in which I type.

But I do agree with carlo...the grammatical standards around here are terrible! The post about the last stolen GTR...man, so hard to read, not to mention the guy who Puts A Capital Letter At The Beginning Of Every Word For Reasons I Don't Know Of. Or da friggin gansta rapa who fink he a nigga bitch.

Sad thing is as wilchy said, 10years time, no one will know how to use these words. Its not just on here...the whole corporate environment is full of people who don't know how to express themselves effectively. I'm constantly having to ask people to explain what they have written or typed simply because they are stupid...I mean dumb....I mean because they can't structure sentences to reflect the correct meaning.

Over and out.

if you monkey's think the standard of grammar on this forum is bad, you should try to read through nissansilvia.com or fastfours.com

I hate sms speak when done outside sms... but for those who think "da" should be written "the"... I'm one of those people who likes to use all 160 characters I get in a message, and as such, I type as much as I can then go through and abbreviate until I fit everything in.

What pisses me off even more is how people have a blatant disregard for punctuation... sms speak I can handle, I enjoy doing crytic word jumbles... but for the love of god break up youre sentences because its bloody annoying when people type like this hey what do you think?

What is the deal with the poor use of the english language on this forum of late? I am no english professor, but alot of the posts on this forum need to be translated.

Am I the only one who finds this place to hard to read?

We speak engrish. :argue:

Say hello to Vodafone $500 capped plan ($79.95). Sometimes I use 165 characters and still it send, who cares when u basically have 2000 free sms/mth.

      @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.
