Now my question is do I need to be retuned right away even if I left the boost where it is, or can I drive the car the way it is?

The only thing I can't quite figure out how to fix is a lean condition at throttle tip in. Cruising at 50mph 25% Throttle = 14.5-15.0 AFR. Slam on the throttle 100% and pre-boost it dips lean to about 17.0-19.0 afr for a second and then follows my open loop map. Now if I ease onto the throttle the symptoms aren't as bad but it will still dip lean for a second.

I'm running in open loop mode 100% of the time due to this issue actually. When running in closed loop this same condition would freak the O2 trim out and it would go Lean---> Overcompensate to Too Rich before going into open loop ----> Target afr.

I'm using TunerPro to tune with and my current bin is posted here:
111809new.bin

I just don't know what more I can adjust to richen this thing up on tip in. Any thoughts please feel free to comment. ]]> PrOjEcTGS<-]]> http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/tuning-engine-management/354970-lean-throttle-tip.html http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/tuning-engine-management/354944-reset-ecu-runs-better.html Wed, 18 Nov 2009 14:09:05 GMT I only found maybe two threads after searching this , only one was from 2003, and none really had a concrete answer why after resetting my ECU my car seems to have more power.

I have a 95 Eagle Talon TSI AWD with an engine out of a 97 donor. I'll be doing the timing belt later today, and need to know how to set timing without the lower cover. I know some of the 6 bolt guys and girls have done this successfully. I'm assuming #1 and #4 at TDC. The reason I'm asking, is that I broke the lower cover last night getting the harmonic balancer off. :ohdamn: Lovely Right?? Didn't think so. Also how much of a pain is it to time the balance shafts with the engine?? I can't afford to remove them yet.

I was advised to download v2.5 and that worked for me.

So I'm connected and I'm getting readings and about 8 samples/sec with my vag-com cable.... I don't know a ton about logging, especially with evoscan. So what should I do to get going? What should I monitor to make sure my fuel, timing, knock etc is where it should be for my current set up?:

Stock motor
E316g
Rewired evo 8 fuel pump
fmic
(other bolt ons listed in my profile)

I think my goal for now would be to find a boost level that doesn't make me too rich or lean until I get some 650s and fuel control as well as a wideband O2 and to be able to use this program well enough so when I get my tuning parts, I will know what the hell I'm doing.

Any tips on base numbers or anything else about mapping, graphing, logging etc would be greatly appreciated. ]]> woodnbronze24 http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/tuning-engine-management/354307-evoscan-basics.html http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/tuning-engine-management/354259-question-fuel-pressure-regulator.html Tue, 10 Nov 2009 16:23:31 GMT Hello everyone,

I got the fuel lab FPR kit for my 2g DSM. I was wondering if I was to install it with the stock injectors, if I can try to up the fuel pressure just a tad to hopefully get away with a bit more boost. Only thing is I don't have a data logger at the moment to see my injector duty cycle. ]]> Chicken Patty http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/tuning-engine-management/354259-question-fuel-pressure-regulator.html http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/tuning-engine-management/354255-antilag.html Tue, 10 Nov 2009 14:37:49 GMT whats up guys havent been her in a while hoping u guys could hep me out with something.

I was wondering how I get these to add to my captured and displayed values in my log. I would like to see my actual numbers that my wideband is reading when I am logging a pull.

On my wideband I have a yellow wire that says its for loggers, any ideas on where I wire it in?

BTW, Im running v3. ]]> 95GreenGSX http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/tuning-engine-management/354045-logging-question.html http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/tuning-engine-management/354036-logging-fuel-pressure.html Sat, 07 Nov 2009 07:26:50 GMT I've been wanting to log fuel pressure lately, so I started poking around on the subject about a week ago. I would be logging with my ecu+.
I found out some worthwhile info by sending an email to Prosport gauges and would like to pass it on, here it is:

Me: I want to buy an electric fuel pressure gage with a sender that puts out a signal I could log on one of the 0 to 5 volt analog inputs in my logger. Will the prosport electric fuel pressure gage sender give me a logable signal?

Prosport: You are going to have to use the premium series Fuel Pressure gauge as that has a 0-3v output signal that you can tap into.

Me: Do you mean I would tap into the green wire that goes to the sender? Or is there an actual port on the back of the gage that is made to be an analog output to a logger?

Prosport: You would have to tap into it, no normal output signal o the gauge.

Me: I can do that, no problem. Wouldn’t I be able to do the same thing with the less expensive gages though, I mean the “performance series” gages?

Prosport: no, because that sender on the performance series reads Ohms.

Me: Ok, that makes sense. Thanks!


So there you have it, one possible way to log fuel pressure. You would prefer the input on your logger to be a high impedence input so it doesn't throw off the reading to your gauge. Logging just plain old voltage doesn't tell you what the fuel pressure is directly. So before I install the gage on the car I will set it up on the bench with a fitting to an air compressor and read the voltage at several different air pressures. That will be my "calibration" table to convert volts to pressure. The "premium" gage with sender is about a hundred bucks.
BTW what got me thinking about this is a problem with a lean condition under load ever since installing my Walbro. I'm thinking the problem is with the Walbro install. So I might just do that different to see if it "fixes" the problem. Still, I've always thought it would be nice to be able to log fuel pressure, even before this problem happened.

Would appreciate comments if anybody has tried this or done it a different way!
