Thumbs up High altitude tuning, by Jay @ TDR!

I thought you old-timers may get a kick out of this thread over on M.Net. I didn't beat the hornet's nest until a bit later in the thread; I'm curious if I get some infraction points for my audacity

Boosting above 4k Feet. - MX-5 Miata Forum

I'm just here to share my enjoyment of the shens.

Did someone say "hornet"?

Why do you read m.net? Entertainment?

For the NC platform, you guys don't have a whole lot of information for certain aspects of bone-stock car maintenance like replacing the stock fuel pump assembly or PPF height alignment after pulling the clutch. We need more NC folks over here!

Oh yeah, I called that out later in the thread. Dude's a basket case.

Thread result was a multitude of folks ended up calling him out on broken log data, a completely wrong target AFR table and wrong VE tables. Sounds like the mods have started allowing dumbass tuners to get their fair treatment (so far, in small quantities) without stepping in. We'll see how long this is tolerated.

With proper calibration there should be no issue with dealing with altitude.

Will this finally inject some much needed humility into Jay's shenanigans? One could only hope.

Nope.
The thing with stubborn dumb people is that they are willingly so

Well, you're right.

Now he's on his tangent, defending himself to ECUTek, because higher altitude results in lower load cells being used and obviously A: this is somehow wrong in his little mind and B: he has to "deal with all this nonsense."

Better watch out albuquerquefx blackone is out to meet you. I saw you should surprise him with a dozen roses and a kiss on the lips right away. Then show him your not-shitty Fab9 setup.

I can't imagine handing over any significant sum of money (not to mention entrusting the tune of my car) to someone who writes/types like that...

Isn't the fix obvious? Instead of using MAP vs. RPM to determine fuel and time, use TPS vs. RPM. Done! And . . . BOOM!

Hahahahahahaha!!!

Its plain BS. Im a forensic psychologist, and I never judge a person without a face to face meeting, let alone of a forum post(s).
Today, 12:44
Great first post.
You seem like you fit in MIATATURBO.NET, where such meaningless contributions are valued.
Today, 12:52
I sure am right, but there seems to be confusion on your side.
The bolded letters above is what the members of miataTURBO.NET are experts on.
So... go on now, your free to go and play with your Itty bitty minded friends.
thought that was funny/\
