Car is now faster, more fuel efficient, and no longer shows up on radar.

Also, vacuum leak cured, radio sounds better and neighbors Boxster melted when I drove by.

Only issue is explaining to wife why beautiful women keep following me home.

 

Glorious.... can't wait till thursday

 

I missed tues! I sure hope I can make the next

 

Alright I got the vacuum situation resolved!!

I'm hoping to be able to get some calibrations sent tomorrow.

I did a WOT run today and it only made that "popcorn" death sound around 7k and then I let off the throttle. Before it was happening around 5k.

Let's see what happens tomorrow!

 

MM are you going to update the ftp site? So there is a permenate place to get tunes?

 

And the solution was?

Though I hate to be the voice of doom, it is likely you have already greatly damaged your motor.
Many, if not most, motors do not survive more than one or two detonation events like that, though they may continue to run "normally" for some time before the already broken apex seal comes completely apart.

I'll do my best (and I am going to quiz you on the instructions since you have obviously not read them), but if the fueling calculation on that adjusted base calibration is inadequate to prevent detonation as it stands, you still have a major mechanical issue.

 

Jeff... of all things.... i forgotz to mention i had some mild porting...

Would it be an issue? you could have read from the datalogs that something might be differentz from normal NAs right?
must have been too sleepyz to remember... GMT+8

 

Yea I think it was a big sucess.
Hope the second series of live calibrations will be in a couple weeks like MM mentioned

 

Ooooh, ooooh, teacher, *raises hand* is it the instructions you wrote in all caps, with red lettering?

Also, do I get extra credit for doing my WOT run within view of MNAO in Irvine?

 

Next session starts in 10 minutes.

 

 

I assume this noise is different than mine... Because If I think about it If I rev my car in neutral I can get my car to backfire like a "Shotgun" with a really loud pop... I assume this is a different noise () haha because ive done this like 50+ times... plus is sounds like a backfire... Comp was running Boost right? I havent read his posts...


Edit: Yup, Comp is boosted...

 

That sounds normal, rotaries always make a little backfire when you lift under load. If you have a more open exhaust you will hear it on almost every shift. Detonation is described as sounding like "marbles in a can" rattling in the engine bay.

 

I keep hearing this whoosh sound. Driving me nuts

 

Right I know... lol I had just woke up when I posted that So I was really still in a haze , im awake now.

 

Woot! I am DONE. LAST tune received.

Hope this worked well for you Jeff. I know I am very satisfied.

 

What is the right way to contact you using the google talk? The id is not enough, is the suffix @gmail.com? Google talk keeps telling me you are offline...

 

Completed! Good times. This process worked flawlessly! Thanks Jeff.

It sounds like someone crushing an empty cola can.

 

Thanks! I'm trying that, but am not sure if the invitations are actually arriving. They should be from lbulej@gmail.com...

 

Just approved you!

 

I was thinking that considering the actual time vs money spent right now makes dyno tuning almost pointless for most users, at a fraction of the overall cost.

 

Face to face dyno tuning is best for extracting maximum power.

 

True, but how much is it going to cost? and how much is it going to cost for an overseas customer?
