DRY DP a few questions.....
anybody have experience with efilive cos5 for tuning the dry hits....
this is gonna be a speed density tune, w/ a 2nd stage DP DRY KIT...
any pointers?????
Curious to hear about others experiences with COS5 because I also plan to use it. With just taking a glance at the software, the nitrous VE modifier only appears to go to 1.30, so it looks like that part of it can only add up to 30% fuel...curious to how you'd set up a 300 shot without changing other things.
60lb'ers, well depending on your overall hp sought, they would be a good starting point, as they can be tuned with stock pcm and still work well. bigger and you need to start looking at after market controllers. The exact math for inj sizing can be found in the wet vs dry thread.
A good pump and a return and reg at the rails is allmost mandatory at this level. A rear mounted pump with reg at the tank takes to long to see the need for more fuel, then same amount of extended time to send added fuel, not good at your level sought. i have mine at the rails and it has held great pressure upto a 285rwhp shot (still don't know the limit), and of course the Racetronics pump and hot wire. if this is not enough for your combo, then you can also add a BAP, which could also extend the range of the 60lb'ers through higher pressure while spraying.
I am currently working on stand alone for the dry hits; why, well no more mixing of the fuels. It will be just a flip of a switch to go to dedicated fuel system.

For example, if the VE Table value is 3.000 Grams*Kelvin/kPa, and the value in this table was 1.00 then the final VE number will be 3.000
But if you entered a multiplier of 1.01 the value will be 3.000 Grams*Kelvin/kPa X 1.01 = 3.030 Grams*Kelvin/kPa.
For COS5 nitrous mode, I plan to tap a relay's coil into the dry nitrous noid, so whenever the noid fires, it will automatically ground the pin on the ECU, if I have issues with that I can always move the relay activation to whenever the nitrous switch in on. I plan to use it to pull timing and dial in the fuel a little better, I'll still be using the MAF as a starting point on the dry shot. Not really 100% sure how this all works, but I'll find out soon enough.

I was just running wet, but a leaking nitrous noid caused me to pull most of the system out until I can rebuild them. I am going to add a dry stage to use on its own and run a two stage dry/wet once I get my noids fixed.

Here is a thread at the EFI Live forum concerning the VE Multiplier.

Stochimetric AFR / Power Enrichment Multiplier = Commanded A/F So:
14.7 / 1.30 = 11.30:1 A/F Ratio
If I am missing something, someone please correct me.
Beer, I read your other thread. Well I do know that in HP Tuner you can set-up a custom fuel curve using the PE Multiplier. With COS 5, are they saying that it won't work using the special n2o fueling table?

On your spikes, can you in EFI Live check the time with the time based parameter. I do this on HP Tuner and I can see exactly how long the lean spikes are, whether from activation, or after a shift with lifting throttle (6-speeds). If your less than than a second in time frame, don't worry about it. If ya can get rid of it, that's great, but I have one on every gear shift and you know how many passes I have made, and they are less than a second each. Not sure why you have an intial spike, the dry should take care of that, maybe change one nozzle to bigger jet and down size the other (which I have basically done on mine), this allows a more dense (cold) reading on the maf, and instant going rich, I mean micro seconds. I have Zero spike upon activation, and I mean none.

Beer, have you been successful with what you've done in COS5 so far?
