wooo hooo .. the fun of tuning on an safc ... getting easier tho

2 things i already know … blinky gauges arent good for tuning and exhaust leaks screw with the afr … but i have a wideband to back up mr blinky and the exhauslt leak will get taken care of tomorrow when i finaly decide to pull the exhaust again

so on with my rambeling about today:

got the eclipse running right finaly, but up till like 5 oclock i couldnt seam to get the lc1 WB02 to operate for myself

so i started the day doing some autometer blinky light tuning, knowing the computer was just gonna screw up the settings w/ each pass down the street till i managed to get the ecu up against the wall on the fuel map

this ecu has way more adjustment then i expected it to … after a you reset the ecu it needs +26 to run right at idle, and now its at -20 and still has to go lower

prolly did a 6 LIGHT pulls down the street … same thing each time

drove it lightly only reving to 2500, 1st 2nd and 3rd gears, a/f was crappy by the end of the street, pull into the neighbors drive … bump the settings a few clicks for each of the effected adjustments

drive it back extra light, driveway adjustments till she ran nice again and take it down the street again

got the wb02 working around like 730 i think … started learning how to work it, i was TOTALY confused at first but a call to innovate motorsports cleared up my confusion

hopefully i can log some pulls down the street and get the lo map adjusted to my satisfaction (gotta fix an exhaust leak first)… then after that its time to add teh boost !

ive also gotta recir the bov … just gotta make some small pieces for that and weld them to the intake pipe

but its nice hearing the turbo spoolin just that little bit to keep up with the engines airflow demand :slight_smile:

i know the somewhat loud exhaust cant be that enjoyable for the neighbors tho … oh well … hope it pisses off the bitch next door considering she called the house late 3 nights ago accusing me of setting of bottle rockets

i though old people were supposed to be deaf :shrug:

:tup: nice work so far…at least ur doing it urself…thats impressive

ive been riding tom since b4 the project was started to get a WBo2 and let me tune it … he finaly caved a few days ago :slight_smile:

glad to hear it’s running! wh00t who0t

today it was doing boosted pulls down the street :slight_smile:

pulled out and from a slow roll i would give it 1/2 throttle and only let it get up to one of the safc set points … adjust richer leaner, try again, get it satisfactory for now, move to the next point

she pulls real nice at the moment, but only have the safc on a “base” setting up to like 4k on the hi map

she runs nice tho

to bad tomorrow i have to put the recirc tube on … that bov sounds sooo nice when it opens

why not leave the recirc tube off? Are you doing 1st gear tuning pulls??

wat color is this car??

because the maf sensor is before the turbo and bov, leaving it open causes the car to go rich when the bov opens

it does fine if your driving it light, but it still kinda wants to stall , it would definantly go way to rich if we were doing a full throttle pull

the car is silver by the way

Nice to see it is running finally. :tup:

Yeah she is a bitch, hell I can’t even park near the street infront of her place without her bitching about the sand in her vagina. :tdown:

I had mine VTA all the time, you just have to downshift and not throw it in neutral to come to a stop. It really only stalls after bringing RPM’s up then coasting w/ the clutch in or the car in N.
