EBC data log and duty target tune help
 
Anybody mind letting me send them my last short data log and a copy of my boost duty target page to help me figure out why I am only making 8 psi with my EBC...

I am trying to get up into the 12-14 psi range.

BTW, thanks and here's my email so I can send you the files...

Without looking at the logs/files, did you notice any difference with the ebc? As in, is it working at all to produce boost over wastegate pressure?

My BEGi kit wouldn't make the boost I wanted until I adjusted the wastegate actuator arm tighter. It was just blowing open.

Post the boost duty targets here.

I was using brains for 10 psi. I have not used the turbo without the EBC.

how to post a pic here, I have no idea. I tried copying a screen shot to a word file then attaching it, but it would not let me.

copy a screenshot to ms paint and post that file here. Are you sure the EBC is working?

I think its working..well shit, I don't know. I have it wired and plumbed correctly. Short of sticking my head in the engine compartment while doing test runs, how would i find out...
oh and here is a test at the posting....

well you could set them all to zero and see if it just runs wastegate pressure or turn them up and make sure you set overboost protection???

what other settings do I need to set to make sure that the MSpnp is running the EBC?

johndoe 09-09-2008 12:38 AM

instructions are in the mspnp manual

oconnor 09-09-2008 12:53 AM

cool, pretty sure i followed it correctly...so it should just be more adjustment on the duty target settings....or I spaced and overlooked something on the instructions...

Allrighty then, I just re-reread the MS1 extra manual...my problem may be here in this screen. But now I need to figure out the how's and whys of adjusting before I go willy nilly...

don't bother with that page. leave it at 70 across the board. if ebc is working the duty cycle table is what you should use.

1. make sure you don't have any boost leaks
2. make sure the boost control solenoid is wired properly. with car off but key on you should be able to hear the solenoid working when you press the gas.
3. make sure the boost control solenoid is plumbed correctly. the silver fitting goes to the boost source. the other goes to the actuator.
4. make sure your boost controller parameters are correct. 19.5 Hz, 20, 49.8, 9.8, Increase boost
