My lower than 6000 rpm lean is fine with me I just need my 6000+ 11.2 to be around 12.8 all the way to 9300 and I will be happy

I sent you a data log with some WOT pulls to 8800 and 9100 1st and 2nd gear. It was from chrisnuzzo76@yahoo

http://www.efidude.com

It's under down loads. You only need to download the first one.
Once downloaded you open the prologger, click on file then click on import.* At this point you import the file you want to view, it will prompt you to enter a vehicle description (any name will do). Next click on VIN and choose the file you named. Now you can pick what parameters to view (3 on top and three on bottom).

Dot Net Framework.
Won't do it. It destroys my computers.

Can you just send me an Excel sheet like everyone else?

My bad...haa...now everyone is going to be all like...WHERES MUH STAGE 5!!

I should have said...v3 maps?

And yeah...I dont have a CAT...so that wasnt a concern guys...

I feel like I've gained a lot of torque with the ignition upgrade. I don't have a tuned map yet but if I can gain an aditional 9 lbs torque with a good map I'd be loving life. I'd also be spending a lot of money on gas since I'll be flooring it much more often
The best way to explain my 9ft/lbs of torque measured with my butt dyno...

I do not have to downshift @ 60 mph in 6th gear to pass...

Try THAT in a stock RX...haa haa

My MPG has gone up too...but I think thats a combination of running the car lean and my "momentum" cruising that I've been doing for self-entertainment...

The problem with the Efidude is that you can't export the information in any other form. I'll play with it a bit when I get home, I'll also e-mail the eifdude people and see if their is a way to transfer the data into excel. I'll be seeing you at the Dyno day so I won't send you anything yet

Maybe just a good screen shot of the plot?
All I need is WOT through 2nd, 3rd and possibly 4th with AFR, RPM and maybe CalcLoad.

Replaced plugs since I'm over 40k and having a hard start issue...I'll upload a pic of the plugs which have been living with v3...but the hard start issue is still there...note I was having the hard start issue pre-AP...

It's just after the car is warmed up and shut-off...Damn coils...

Actually, hot-restart is still an issue with a LOT of cars. The newest OE flash fixed a lot of things, but it made hot-starts worse for many.

I've been experimenting with an AccessPORT-based fix for that, but nothing as yet.

Well let me know if you need me to test something...I can reproduce the hot-start at will now...

I cant help but feel like its something having to do with the air intake temps...when I was mucking with it pre-AP I found if I popped the hood and gave the intake direct fresh air it just started right up (as opposed to 10 seconds...) which was weird...

basically...

drive the car around until its nice and warm...
the hotter the ambient temps the better...
the hotter the car is when its shutdown the better...
shutdown car...wait for 3-5 minutes...(or more depending on temps)

upon cranking...it will take a LONG time to start...

workarounds...restart quickly...wait for about an hour or so to cool off...

ah, I don't have that. Mine starts up nicely. But hot starts results with a weird loping idle for a short time.

btw, do you have the upgraded starter? that might play a big role.

I think its heat-soak related...maybe electronics or something...but yeah...when the car is hot and standing...it just isnt "right" until it gets going for a little bit...

I tend to think of the car like a shark now a days...it HAS to keep moving...it HAS to keep air flowing...or else it will die...

hey MM just checked my AFR at WOT in 2nd gear. Right at 6000 it goes down to 11.3-11.7's, a couple low 12's but it mainly stays in the 11's.

would 1c lean it out a bit? or should i stick with this map (power feels fine with this map, no hiccups or anything)
