blackturboblack Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 To get around all the administrator rules and such I just initially install to the desktop. After I have all my definitions and profiles setup via xml, I just move it all over to programs. You rang??? Oh, yeah. I can not log this f'n ECU. How am I supposed to flash when the FMIC and walbro and dp come? I've followed every instruction, used different o/s and I just don't get it. I'm thinking a baseline ROM for my ride along with a stg 1 to compare and possibly flash might solve problem. I can send you the RR logs with pulls if you tell me what you want me to log. What do you think about that work-around? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackturboblack Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 I've tried that. I think I'll have to uninstall everything and start from scratch. Then I think I'll try my tuner shop. Something's got to give. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NSFW Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 When I try to open them in RR ECU editor they show as .cvs files. But when I try to open them it says defs not found. I loaded the logger defs into the logger and it works. What other defs are there? There's your problem. RomRaider can only open ECU images and log profiles (the list of parameters to log). It cannot open the logs themselves. Get used to the fact that pretty much every different task in tuning requires a different piece of software. Even creating logs and viewing logs requires two different pieces of software. Here's a utility that you can use to view log files: http://www.romraider.com/forum/topic5446.html Also, since you asked about what parameters to log: http://www.romraider.com/forum/topic5384.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackturboblack Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 Okay. Thank you. I see where RR can edit and flash ECU? Then why would you need ECUflash? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NSFW Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 Please use normal fonts and sizes. Where does it say that RomRaider can flash the ECU? If I said that, I'd like to fix it. If I didn't say that, then you should really work on reading more carefully. I'm not saying that just to be a jerk - you're about to give yourself the power to kill your engine.

blackturboblack Posted January 2, 2010 Share Posted January 2, 2010 If you read, you'll see a question mark. And the app doesn't work. Thanks anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gotsugg Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 The info needed to get all this up and running is out there but It was very difficult for me to put together all the pieces. I can walk you thru a few things if you are welling to do so and/or haven't figured it out already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackturboblack Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 The info needed to get all this up and running is out there but It was very difficult for me to put together all the pieces. I can walk you thru a few things if you are welling to do so and/or haven't figured it out already. I would appreciate any and all help. Mainly, the app to read cvs files doesn't work (incompatable[w7] or just won't install [xp]) and ECUflash won't hold the new defs, especially for my model meaning I can't get a read on my ECU.

gotsugg Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 Quick update. I am currently on my 4th revision with my VF39, EWG + fueling mods tune. This thing is flying. The cold weather that arrived yesterday may keep me from logging this weekend but I will be back at it as soon as the weather gets a little warmer. Amazing what can be done to this car. Thanks Infamous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MiniStiGuy Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 you can go open source and save a ton of money. If you decide to get the AP Infamous can tune you either way you decide to go. OEM HID's Rx330 Retro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy78 Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 ok so how does open source work and is it safe for the car? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infamous1 Posted January 18, 2010 Author Share Posted January 18, 2010 ok so how does open source work and is it safe for the car? Opensource is conducted via flashing of the oem ECU. Safe is dependant on the tuner in which you choose to go with. Checkout more info here: www.romraider.com. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackturboblack Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 Okay. I've tried everything and ECUflash just won't load the new defs so can't read or flash my ECU. I'm going to try another laptop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FireB Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 ok so how does open source work and is it safe for the car? Don't be intimidated by using OpenSource. I was not a believer and started up with AcessPort. After many $ and time, I decided to ditch the AP and go OpenSource. You will probably use less money to gain power and safer if you go with the right tuner. Knock Knock "Infamous" He is a Genius. I was skeptical about E-Tuning. However, this guy is good. Do all things told by Infamous and you will not regret that you chose him as a tuner for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
