If you are just after someones VE and Spark tables it's no problem to export those into .VEX files and import them into our base map overwriting what we had there, and leaving all the base settings intact.

exactly why i told phil to steal my fuel tables and what-not and not burn the MSQ....

Jerry, if you want to see how my board is modded....see here:

I've been inverted for a little over a year now. I've got a random occasional miss, otherwise running well.

Q6 and Q8 removed
C12 and C30 removed
D1 removed and replaced with a jumper
Backside mods from http://www.diyautotune.com/images/ca...input-mods.jpg

Again, that appears to be Kag's mods...

loaded basemap and changed required fuel so the car would idle, installed new ignitor, car fired up, tach now works again. Drive the car around the block seems great. THEN as soon as water temp hits 160 the same bullshit all over again, car sucks. I seriously don't think i could have possibly done anything wrong here.

Braineack 05-31-2007 08:32 PM

zip your MSQ file and upload it....its gotta be a setting somewhere...

Braineack 05-31-2007 08:36 PM

acutally, is your over boost protection on? maybe set to 1.5psi?

magnamx-5 05-31-2007 08:44 PM

coolant related hmm are you pulling timming related to temp?

Mach929 05-31-2007 09:01 PM

i've never even gotten into boost

Mach929 05-31-2007 09:07 PM

map

Braineack 05-31-2007 09:20 PM

change your Over Run fuel cut to be under 23 kPa....betcha that's it.

as of now anything over 160* & 2000RPM, and under 9psi will cut fuel

Mach929 05-31-2007 09:31 PM

i think you might be onto something there scott, i'll definitely change that tomorrow. god i hope that works.

FoundSoul 05-31-2007 11:08 PM

Good catch Scott-- that is almost definitely what's going on here. I just checked one of our base maps and sure enough it had 170kpa in the overrun settings, which definitely wasn't in there before when we set it up originally. Not sure how that happened but I'll fix it, check the others, and repost them now. My apologies!


EDIT: Just checked the maps and just the 'no afm' map had the wacky setting. The 'with afm' map was set at 17kpa which is fine on our car, though I set them both to 20kpa which will allow some tolerance in case some cars don't get quite as much vacuum on decel. This of course could need to be tuned if 20kpa still wasn't high enough to activate overrun, but will definitely prevent activation when it shouldn't happen, unless somehow you cruise at 20kpa. The thread at https://www.miataturbo.net/forums/sh...ad.php?t=10267 has links to the updated maps...

Braineack 06-01-2007 08:42 AM

well it's more like a fuel cut :gay: so that's why he was stalling out.

It was a joke Jerry :p BTW Inovative might still be evil but atleast mine is working for me now :cool:

Just finished my coffee... oh I get it! ;)

That's great news on your LC-1...

While we're in the joking mood-- with overrun set to activate below 170kpa while above 160degrees you just need to make sure you're staying in the boost once the engine warms up. Never let it get under about 10psi and you'll be fine ;). Flat shift will help with that, and by the way works nicely with the MSPNP-- I've been playing with it lately. You do need a strong clutch though...

Mach929 06-01-2007 08:04 PM

thank god, the car actually runs now!!! still needs much tuning, i'm running the narrowband for now and it runs really lean in most cruise situations, 18:1 to 23:1. in light boost it safely goes rich feels slow but i'm running no helper spring and no boost controller for now. but the car is now driveable now that i can go over 2000rpm and keep it under 10psi:gay:

Braineack 06-01-2007 08:08 PM

nice.

akaryrye 06-01-2007 08:24 PM

fuck ya man! i was worried you would give up when you were so damn close
