why are you spraying meth at 6psi,i know on my GN usually you find where you start to detonate which was about 17psi on 93 oct for my v6,and spray (meth,alki)to raise octane to run about 22-23 psi...arent you just killing the tune at 6psi...

 

i will build other things for sure.

i like to try everything and see if its worth it so this is my trial haha
im using the stock ecu, power steering, this thing as a mostly modern stereo, stock rear, stock trans, AC! i am breaking all the rules.

 

almost every GN i see race breaks up every pass so... i dont listen to a word those guys say haha

you can activate it whenever you want and tune around it without issue, i just want it in there when the boost starts, usually around 50% of my total boost pressure

 

My alcohol starts at 8 PSI and progressively gets stronger as the boost rises. Not sure what kind of kit you have. My Buick doesn't break up.. Ever. Well, it did before I switched to a colder plug. Was causing some issues there. Denmah won't be killing his tune, considering he knows what he is doing. If his kit isn't progressive, he can just remove some fuel to compensate for the alcohol as boost ramps in. The TurboTweak chip in my Buick does the same thing. I also have a progressive kit. I have no problem with breaking up or power being killed.. Although tuning it myself, I may not be getting full potential anyways.

 

Tons of trouble today
I'm terrible with the stock ecu apparently

Also I think one of my manifolds is cracked

 

sick of hp tuners yet? lol. i bet your tempted to rip all the stock wiring out and put your microsquirt in

 

its super frustrating for me knowing what i can do in minutes with a MS system haha but i dont wanna buy a shift controller and would rather not rewire everything, bleh,

ill take a break and see what i can do,

i didnt change anyting, went for a drive today and it was running rich as ***** stalling, wouldnt start, wouldnt idle, then the air fuel was all over, then it started running more like ****

i just drove home and pulled all the plugs and did a compression check i was sure something was fucked but every cyl is 170-180psi

so, annoyed today haha thats what i accomplished

 

I have a question for you, Since you custom grind cams and seem to do a good job.. What do you think of these cam specs for a turbo?

234/228 .576/.571 113

Its some weird old SLP cam that I bought brand new for $150 and put in my 5.3, I think it will do pretty well with a single setup.. Iv just never found any info on this cam and wanted some input..

Not trying to take away from your thread Demah. Feel free too chime in haha, Im building my Firebird based on your Fairmont... JY 5.3, ebay studs, $50 turbo

 

You like Megasquirt more then HPT im guessing? I want too get HPtuners for my LSx car but was thinking Megasquirt on my corvette with a 4.8/5.3

 

Sorry to her of the troubles today..but how about you throw a few lawn mowers and some weedwackers in the back and race that thing,,would be funny as hell...

 

So far, for me, megasquirt has been successful. Its strait forward for fuel table tuning. It really makes efi live and hp tuners look unnecessary. I will say this, if its an ls swapped vehicle, I would use MS. If it came with an LS based engine then I would do the efi live/hp tuners.

 

I hate to say this but any chance you got a set of knock off 80 lb injectors? could pull ones out of one of the other cars to eliminate the injectors

 

Hey Denmah, what settings do you have for the injectors? I might be able to help a bit on those injector settings for the 80s in hptuner if you want.

 

He told me the only thing he changed for the injectors was flow rate.

 

in every stock vehicle i have tuned, 2010 silverado and 2002 ws6 i have used the siemens deka 80lb injectors without a problem just changing the injector size and not changing any other injector data.

 

Cool, well if you want more data for it, I would be happy to help.

 

sure, ill take what i can get, before i pull it all out and put it in a plymouth valiant and throw the truck and stock computer in the trash

 

Cool, just shoot me a pm with your email address.

 

plymouth valiant. Huh. Sounds like a plan. That would be a cool build lol

 

well, found the problem, both! if my chinese wastegates from a friend are bad.

both of them the valve guides failed and stuck open, throwing off my AFR and making the truck sound like the exhaust was blown open somewhere, and also making it feel like dogshit.
