Here is dumb question #1, Since the timing is only effected by boost when it sees boost, then your spark map that you are running on your boosted car will work fine on my currently NA car, right?

 

and now that ive been thinking about it for ten minutes the same should kind of be true with fuel... but im thinking that i would have to be running NA with the size of injectors that im going to run when its FI, for me to be able to use the same fuel map NA and FI,, any of this make sence, or am i way in left field?

 

It makes sense but realy just use about the same size injectors as him or the stockers and compensate from there on a percentage in relation to your new injector size i hope to run 460's. The timming should work fine but go through and check the map vs stock anyway to see if you are missing out on some hp.

 

You got it. Fuel and ign maps are load and rpm based. Load is indicated by mainfold pressure. 100 kPa is atmospheric, WOT for a NA car. When I bolted on the turbo, there was little tuning to do under 100 kPa, just a bit to account for VE changes due to the turbo and IC plumbing.

 

ohhhh mschlang another new best friend... Did you change injectors? or are u using the stock 1.6 injectors?

 

I ran the stockers to get the MS sorted, switched to RX7 460s to prepare for the turbo. I've been up to 56% duty cycle @ 5 psi, lots of room yet.

 

told ya Ad great minds think alike. mshlang how does MS compare ot haltech in your view as far as ease of use and tunning?

On a side note did you just sell a stock ecu for a 1.6 i noticed you where in Las vegas i just bought a ecu from there of ebay this morning.

 

Funny this should come up today, I went ahead and started taking my second stab at installing my megasquirt. got the wiring harness mostly hooked up, but couldnt find my tuning cable doh! Still got your maps also al, and if all goes well im hoping to autocross with the megasquirt next weekend

anyway, wish me luck on that. would be great to finally ditch the oem ecu.

 

The Haltech was much nicer in the fact that it is so highly polished. Want to run boost control, anti-lag, flat shift, ect? Just configure it in the program, no messing around. A friend of mine is a Dyno Dynamics dealer, and the E6K is his favorite low-cost ecu to tune. The maps are bar graphs indexed by rpm, so it is really easy to tune one rpm from low to high load, and then more on to another. It also accepts nearly any ign input with no changes, which is also nice. The only real thing that the Haltech lacks is datalogging capability. It does dl, but there is no program to view the info like Megalogviewer, you just look at the raw data.

Nope, mine is in the car running idle control, ac, and emmisions stuff. If I sell the car, it should take about 3 hrs to go back to stock, which is a nice option to have.

 

I hate the US postal service... I could have had my **** today BUUUUUUUT it was a ****** gay *** holiday and the gay *** postal service isnt working today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

WTF holiday no one told me about this **** wich one? shoulda had em take it to your house man.

 

where the hell were u to tell me that when i ordered it??? God damn stupid worthless holidays.. no one even likes the ****** president!

 

who me i didn't even know it was a holiday.

 

Ordered mine tonight, using priority mail. Decided to get a small soldering station as well. Nothing special just something better than the wore out POS pencil iron I have that won't even hold a tin(ing).
Gonna be an adventure. Bum deal about your shipping ordeal, better get it tomorrow or i fear for the postal services life. Adam might just straight up lose it.

 

hehehehehh yeah thats right it bettter be here today. I got a new soldering station as well, and some soldering brade, and some other goodies

 

YAAAAY i got it!!! Time to get to work

 

Have you started yet?

 

yeah, stim is built, power section of board built and tested, com section built and tested, after some issues with the internal usb adapter, its workin tho, and all of the inputs are built and tested, had an issue with RPM but i think i got it lined out now... all thats left are the outputs.

 

I just got mine in. I will start the build tommorow. I am planning on taking pics every step of the way.

 

i was gonna do that but my camera sucks indoors
