Did you say that outloud before posting? lol

 

He might have been trying to insult you instead of giving you tuning tips... he does that from time to time

 

No - i'm just going off the flow map at this stage . IAT guage is next on my list ...

 

heh - i knew that "retarded" remark would get a response

 

You were static above 6500 or so. The high EGTs happen above 6800, so you should be advancing instead of remaining static at 11° or so.

You will end up around 15° at that point, but until you are satisfied with your AFRs, keep the timing safe.

 

Water meth system?
OD

 

All good - this is what afrs and maf look like now - wot run 2nd through 3rd
EGTs below 940 at end of run

 

I think would need to do that if i was pushing more boost higher in rev range - must get IAT guage to see what is going on

 

1000 kms later and STILL having hot starting issue . It will start after several seconds but used to be way better .

I'm wondering if the cold rx7 plugs are the issue - Anyone else experienced this with those plugs ?

 

i use the cold rx7 plugs even when NA. car starts up instantly.

 

nope.

 

Usually a hot-start issue is an over-rich fuel scenario.

(Provided there isn't an actual issue like a miswired injector, vacuum leak or the like.)

 

bugger- out goes that theory

I'm thinking over rich is most likely from those suggestions but how ?
Vac leak would show up in other areas like idle etc and i never took the plugs off the injectors except to change the p2s .

 

Have you verified your coils are good?

Hot start problems were my bane with the OEM coils - swapped to BHR and so far so good.

 

/\ - funny you should mention that . Was on the Mazsport coils before and starting was no issue
However these OEM coils seem to be handling boost no problems ....

 

Dwell settings?

 

/\ stock - never changed

 

Can you get a set of coils off someone's car for a head to head?

Or do the resistance testing - I forget how though I think it is in the service manual.

 

i can try the Mazsports again ----- cough hack

 

At idle - can't hurt right?

 

OK - found the hot start problem.
turned out to be related to the tune I put into the Powermod - I did not realise it was going to affect startup mixture - but it did .

Did some exciting upgrades with Hymee protuner over the last couple of days . Way more to this story but i'm knackered now and it's new years eve so ...... another day .

looks like i found a few more ponies

 

It could also be cooler/wetter or the BARO is slightly higher.
I'll see 20 - 30 g/sec variation from day to day.
At full boost, my MAF could read a maximum anywhere from 390 - 420 g/sec.

 

ah - but this was after my extra special secret mod that i wont divulge to anyone .
Was seeing 310g/s under same conditions previously

 

Well, that is excellent, then!
