First time logger, base map & MickeyD stage 1 maps

[McDowell Performance Tunin]

Will do. Thanks. One more question, how accurate is the dyno on airboy's spreadsheet and is it whp?

[mickeyd2005]

It's as accurate as any other chassis dyno... i.e., it's not that accurate.

 

Dynos are used mainly for comparison. The best thing to do is to do a WOT log using the bone stock tune and car. Then you will have a baseline.

Ah, I see. Here are two WOT 3rd gear pulls and a learning view after. I've already changed my map pulling timing where needed. I'll log those another time.

wow, just looked at my base log...here is what I started with, and here is my last log.

 

Stock 164HP

193TQ

 

Current 228HP

220TQ

In the first log, your logger cut out. There was a knock in between 2902 rpm and 4298 rpm but it's not clear where it occurred.

Hmmm... something's wrong... I only get 200 whp / 226 wtq for the new log.

[McDowell Performance Tunin]

yeah, I was looking at the reference data. My total highest #'s are 228hp and 226TQ, from different logs.

[McDowell Performance Tunin]

got confused

[McDowell Performance Tunin]

I've done some experimenting with my map and have sort of a combo of mickeyd's stage 2 and a base STI map configuration. So far things are looking good. I think I can add some timing since my logs, from what I can tell, look pretty good. The only knock's I've received have been at low rpm's and engine load. Here is a few logs and a before and after learning view. The after learning view was taken after about 15 min. of drving. I logged a few different parameters, some not needed, but was courious of the results. I think I'll add more timing and bump WGDC a bit. Any other suggestions?

I'm also getting an STI UP in a few days, so I'll need to do some more logging and changes. I feel like my car is controlling me and I can't stop tuning until I find the perfect setup. After all, I don't want to break my car and have my wife kill me

[McDowell Performance Tunin]

The UP will be my last mod (for a while). The car looks completely stock, because I gutted my DP, and the UP from the STI looks stock as well. I love having a sleeper...
