Where were you guys runnin....comin off the pike onto 15? I bet that guy was surprised :giggle: Who tuned your car....or did you?

You got it, 15 north "The Dark Side" It was dead, no cars. I tuned my car, its not an awesome tune but its a good solid street tune.

You my friend need to lend me a hand to fine tune my shit...or at least give me the run down.

Ha im not anywhere near good enough to do shit like that, i have only messed with my ve tables, i have yet to touch spark or ignition at all!

You got some balls then :giggle:.....I'd be so nervous driving around in boost. When you go to dial things in if you need them, I bought a set of those electronic det-cans from Jeff....they work pretty damn good, it can just be a little challenging to listen for detonation over valvetrain noise, exhaust, bov, road noise, etc

Cspence I can give you a good rundown on MS. I havent messed with spark a lot because I havent been able to tune on a dyno, but I can help you generally get better at using MS. I sell "PNP" kits for ford tfi setups (foxbodies and Merkur mainly) so I have gotten pretty decent at setting up megasquirts.

Definitly....I know you had said you were going to do a little run down for everyone once we all got together....I figured if I could pick up some stuff from each of you (you, Nick, and Chris) I'd be pretty well off. I'm a real hands on / mechanical person, but for some reason I learn MUCH better when taught than when trying to teach myself through literature....I got into some arguments with college professors over that :giggle:

\thread hijacking, lol

I don't really know what I'm doing for tuning yet. I still need the 4 bar map for my mspnp. I just, I figure for now if my afr's are at 10.5-11.0 ar 20 psi, I'm doing ok. Unfortunately I came from a 500hp Dsm that I tuned on an afc and maf translator LOL. If there are any local guys that can help me out with a tune please speak up.

240 I may be moving down your way in a couple months.
If your heading to the Pike on Friday lemme know, maybe you can go through my programming quickly. Maybe even do a quick street tune.

<<<< me

you should shoot for more of the 11.5- 11.8 range full boost depending on what you got for timing. bring your laptop to the pike next time and shoot me a PM.

LOL you responded before I could edit.

yeah i saw. Im bored sitting in vibrations class.

Where are you moving to? IDK if ill be down there this summer or not. depends if I get a job elsewhere in CT.

EDIT... good chance ill be at the pike friday if its as nice as its supposed to be. probably in my GFs WRX

I would go to the pike but I would get pull over with no front bumper :(

You guys crack me up. What is it 100 miles across CT the long way? It's 45 miles to the nearest super walmart here. ;) I drive 160 miles each way to go to an auto-x.

this is a great build thread. You got all your stuff quick, you posted in perfect intervals with meaningful updates, and you catered to my ADHD in doing so lol! Awesome stuff man!

I love the fact that on any given Fri or sat you can get 20 street races with of your choosing 5 min from my house LOL. Not that I do it, but I have a buddy with a Turbo ls2 swapped 350z that will race anytime anywhere, he's fairly entertaining to watch....

240, my wife and I are working on a house in wesrbrook right now, hopefully it all pans out.

Nice good luck, I have a lot of family in westbrook.

I have a vid somewhere on my computer of the guy wtih the Turbo LS 350z doing some drifting around bobs parkinglot before he had the swap done.

Props to Dave for dropping some serious MS knowledge on me last night! Thanks dude car runs wicked now!

I think that tune still has a lot more to go. We need to get you running even better :) .

I love your car. wish mine was that clean.

I see how it is....;)

haha OK OK we will all have to get together and do a megasquirt session. Lets not do it at 10pm on the berlin turnpike tho. I dont think street tuning would be such a great idea there.

LOL we had enough attention when I set up his launch control. Shit sounds AMAZING on that exhaust.
