Alberta Tuners
So after much debate and about 20 work hours wasted reading up on the tuning section of the forum, I decided I should let a more capable guy than me tune my car. Does anyone know of anyone in Alberta, more preferable the Edmonton area, who can tune a renesis? Any information would be greatly appreciated.

I don't know of anyone up there, but are you tuning FI or basically a stock engine? It's pretty easy and there is nto a lot of risk to your car if it is not FI.

It will be a stock engine, decided not to go with a turbo recently. I know the MAF scaling is fairly straightforward, but the rest feels like another language to me. I still haven't watched any of Kane's videos, so that might help, I'm just scared of adjusting the timing wrong or making the car run too lean and cratering my engine.

watch kanes videos, but the biggest hurdle is just starting. It becomes much easier. If you have a cat I would not actually chage your fuel targets. I would just try to scale maf and injectors so you are getting the correct fueling.
up the omp lower fan temps(maybe not for canada) you might gain a little power on timing, but kane addresses that for n/a And smooth out your throttle tables so the car doesnt surge at low speed. Maybe raise your coil dwell. If you are running non stock coils. |
Ya I think starting will be the biggest hurdle. Without actually doing anything I'm not surprised I have a hard time grasping all of the jargle. According to my AP, I've hit 220 on my temp before so I may look at lowering the fan temps. I don't drive it in the winter so that should not be an issue. My add ons include a lightwight flywheel, BHR midpipe and BHR ignition, I'm likely going to spring for the BHR long tube header, should I wait to tune until I make a decision on the long tube header?
|
no, the header(IMHO) should not make a differance. Your tuning is based on airflow. the header should allow more airflow, but if everything is putting out air correctly then it should work just the same.
the dwell will make a nice differance. |
what year is your car?
