Ben-san Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 Heh heh, little did ArghJae & I know either, when we met up with our two stock twinnies, we heard Chris before we saw him. What was Mr. Silver thinking? Did it have blue graphics and a TRD wing by any chance? B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRD3000GT Posted June 10, 2005 Author Share Posted June 10, 2005 she is stilloverboosting... Going to Owen next week for a wideband air/fuel setup and some tweaking and then Ill be taking people for rides again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Terry S Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 whats she boosting too?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRD3000GT Posted June 10, 2005 Author Share Posted June 10, 2005 over 1.4 bar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Terry S Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 over 1.4 bar yeah 0.01 bar over or 0.7 of a bar over Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRD3000GT Posted June 10, 2005 Author Share Posted June 10, 2005 its kind of getting to 1.6 at times.. What do you think? I should have it tweaked to stick at 1.4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 What's controlling the boost? MoTeC? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRD3000GT Posted June 10, 2005 Author Share Posted June 10, 2005 yup.. The motec is, Ive been told that it knows exactly whats going on with the engine and fueling is spot on? but Im still considering tuning it down to 1.4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miguel Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 Not that the Motec one aint any good , but i would still use a seperate Boost controller and let the Motec keep its ref point for boost so it still knows whats going on . The advantage to having a seperate boost contoller is that you can self ajust for problems or race days ..without having to fire up the laptop all the time...just a thought .

Guest Terry S Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 What's controlling the boost? MoTeC? well whatever it is isnt working, as the WG spring is 1.1 bar Chris, if you want longevity I would aim for 1.3 bar, mine runs 1.2 on the street Alex has a good point tho, what is controlling it?? You must remember you have no knock control now with the Motec Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Usmann A Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 Yep, major downside im afraid .. no knock cont. :thumbdown now you see what we mean when were talking about EMS that are for race cars only .... for a road car, knock feedback is very important. Whilst I agree that phantom noise on the big boosting single can somewhat throw off the sensor, but hey, its those that take the time on the dyno to filter this out and tinker with the timing until its right ... Be nice, that my lil old AEM will retard timing and increace fueling, and decreace boost upon a higher V reading. Whos your Daddy now? edit, re, the boost control, you can have the EMS control it, and feed it into a potentioal meter(dial) and play with the V vs boost reading and calibrate it so that you can send the EMS a seperate reading(fudged) from its own sensor so that you can control the feedback, and adjust the boost.

TRD3000GT Posted June 10, 2005 Author Share Posted June 10, 2005 the motec is hooked up and utilises all of the stock knock sensors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Terry S Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 the motec is hooked up and utilises all of the stock knock sensors you sure about that?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRD3000GT Posted June 10, 2005 Author Share Posted June 10, 2005 yes. I specifically asked this when the car was being tuned.... Otherwise I would have gone with the Fcon as I know after lots of conversations with you that it does deal with knock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Usmann A Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 well shane at motec USA tells me different. Motec would rather conquer the FBW as alot of race cars use this, but no knock control .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Terry S Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 yes. I specifically asked this when the car was being tuned....

Miguel Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 Correct me if I'm wrong here but the VVTi shuts the TB when it sences Knock as well as pulling timing ...Seeing as Motec have not yet sussed FBW and the VVTi runs it and ( could also be wrong here) that you have had to rid the car of th FBW for a stock TB ..then how does it have full knock control????

TRD3000GT Posted June 10, 2005 Author Share Posted June 10, 2005 I will dig deeper.. I am considerign running an HKS a/f knock amp setup for piece of mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Usmann A Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 exactly miggles, but it doesnt even have a simple normal knock control, ie, V relayed back to the ECU to make knock adjustments ... AFAIK, forget the Vvti one .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Terry S Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 I will dig deeper.. I am considerign running an HKS a/f knock amp setup for piece of mind. And what exactly do you expect the knock amp to do to prevent detonation Chris?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
