Kane Tunes My car
 

This saturday Kane is tuning my car with the AP and his robot. I'll post some logs in here.
Stay Tuned. :evil_laug:ylsuper:

update:
posts 21 and 22 have log in them.

how's it look?

reupdate: post 77 has a link to download the actual map and copies of it (for those of you with 04 or 05 8s). you'll need open office 3 to view the copies and racetuner beta to load the map.

rereupdate: posts 91 and 92 have .jpg images of the following: stock 2nd and 3rd WOT, cobb stage2 2nd and 3rd WOT, kanetune 2nd and 3rd WOT.

post 89 has dynos of those three.

subscribed.

subscribed....if he does good maybe he can tune mine when i get the ap again...it would be nice having someone in the area....

:suspect:

What's that face about?? LOL

I'll let Chase tell ya'll.

BTW - I didn't tune jack - he did it himself.

That's good- spread the wealth

tuned -- logs tomorrow

probably 10whp easy.

afrs are gorgeous. maf scaling is the key.

:wiggle:

your software is rad. thanks for the lesson. i can't wait for the full download. i'll round my "m-values" at the hundred-thousandth place one by one. :lol: you know i will.

Nerd!

got some AP dyno numbers. Both were taken today on the same road in the same conditions. 79 degrees outside the whole time. Yes i drove around for a while after flashing back to the stock map before doing the pulls.

dyno is taken in 3rd from 2500 rpm to 7000 rpm. I set the weight at 3199 lbs in both cases.

stock map:
188.82 hp @ 5995 rpm
156.23 tq @ 5915 rpm

tuned map:
200.74 hp @ 6701 rpm
157.34 tq @ 6701 rpm
:naughty:


logs coming soon. I have them, just haven't gotten around to uploading them etc.
I did WOT pulls in 2nd and 3rd gears for both maps.

You broke the 200 mark huh... nice!

In the end we are all numbers whores.

lol. yeah. you should've seen your face last night when i said we got 199 hp. you wanted that 1 hp as much as i did. heh.

grats.
dyno graphs?

okay, how do I attach .csv on here? says invalid file.

i have the .csv's. someone can plot them, i guess. how do i attach them on here?

This is awesome, hope you can get those plots up for us all to see....
1) you should cross-post this to the "AP dyno results" thread in the Engine Tuning Forum.
2) I still don't have much faith in the "ap dyno" function to give a real/absolute horsepower figure, but a before/after comparison like this is probably a fairly accurate measure of tuning gains. Great to see!!!

yeah. i'll crosspost it. i don't know how much i trust the dyno numbers either from this thing, but when compared like this, they seem to make sense.

maybe i can just take a screen shot.

Ya the AP dyno isn't all that accurate. I know a few NA people that have gotten 250+rwhp and over 200 ft-lbs of torque with the AP dyno so I don't have faith in it.

I've never tried it myself, though

arrg, the bitmaps are too bigs. tried saving as .xls with no luck. anyone?

uploading these mutha suckas is harder than tuning.

testing renaming to .doc

wohoo. success.

:aroused:

Did not work for me..... try excel

Kane,

Get yourself up here to the NW and come tune my car! While we you are at maybe we can kidnap Faille from his gf and go for some drinks!

You make the army send me - and I'll go in a heartbeat.

PS - Faille doesn't have a GF... it is all a coverup for his D&D parties... HAHAHAHAHA
