Why don't you just fix the MAF? It'll be cheaper and the results will be significantly better.

 

^^^ Yeah going to give them a call 1st thing this morning and go over the MAF design & tune

 

The MAF thing is fairly simple.

Straighten it out, lose the welds, lose the recirc. (get an AEM and customize it)

 

Dan will be selling his INT. X very shortly. If you talk to him, he might sell it to you within the week.

 

Well just got a call from them telling me that the car is running lean and they had some pinging......told them to scrap the recirculation and to try to get the air across the MAF as smooth as possible and to also run through the diifferent series of maps that you have provided jeff...If still no success taking the car as is, staying out of boost until I can acquire a microtech unit

 

when my maf wasn't setup properly (greddy short intake), the AP dumped too much fuel.

Why is Derex's going lean? Different incorrect maf settings result with different incorrect fueling results?

 

Beats me, but will be collecting **** loads of data come tomorrow as car will finally be in my posession.

They were finally able to get it a lil richer using the last series of MM's maps but still goes lean in upper rpms

 

The new calibrations are NOT designed for power.
Nor should they be considered "safe" for high-boost use.

They are just for data-gathering.
The updates after v4_0_1 that are sent out individually are tuned per application.

 

I'm interested in hearing why the car was on the dyno anyway.

New setup = tip toe around and see if it is running properly. Doing a bunch of WOT runs comes only once you're sure the damn thing is operating properly.

 

I had them use your older maps and according to them they had it on the dyno only for running test; oil, fuel, & vac leak and were being very vigilante

Hell no worries here, because thank god I ran into that fire while on the dyno vs. me out street driving.

 

 

details...?

 

pics and vids or it didn't happen

 

Whats that saying? oh, "If you want something done right then do it your damn self", after fiddling around for 2 hours customizing the intake I got it working properly on my setup, ran the MM v1_3a map just so I could run it WOT......Had to check my pants after hitting 7 psi and........Oh yeah, definately splurged on my self....

Will post up pictures of intake and everything tomorrow after I finish detailing & organizing engine bay.

Really in need of the anti-stall valve for the synchronic as I currently have the bov blocked off

 

what were your afr's at WOT?

lets see some pix of the MAF tube...screw the detailing

 

Will be switching back this weekend to Jeff's new base maps and "unfortunately" taking it easy so I can get proper tune. Current map runs super rich in upper rpms and stft are pegged out @ idle.

trying to get some datalogs posted up

 

would the stock coils be fine running in the 250-260 whp range?

 

depends,

sometimes they dont run fine in th 185 to 195 range. the coils dont know the hp. they work or they dont..

the 04s and 05s had a big issue with this. the latter not so much..

beers

 

oh man mines an 05 x_x guess we'll find out!

 

Bring on the Pics




The Maf intake is a prototype right now as I will be putting together a more complete aluminum intake w/the screens actually inside the pipe itself. Right now I'm running a screen inside the rubber coupler right in front of the MAF and one at the compressor inlet as well.

Had to block off the BOV so I can idle, temporarily though, found a anti-stall valve thanks psychofox.

 

lookin good .
That's a big *** wastegate you have there !

 

hey man, there's a rotary club meet tonight at Long Shots on Warwick. you going?

 

Nuke what time is that meet?

 

6PM. its at Breakaway Billiards, not Long Shots. my bad.

 

what's the benefit of the BHR throttle body spacer in this application?
