I did catch your posts on the EFI Live forums however. the point of my post is to say that the original IAT ECT calculations stay intact if you don't run SD. Alot of the Calculations you are reffering to are humidity corrections which are rough to say the least. If you want the entire fueling algorythm in its entirety I will see If i can paste the whole thing together for you with the Math. warning even if you have it most likely it'll be fiarly confusing without all of the various adders and scalars.

How are you with C code ?
i define bitching as complaining without providing solutions.

and as for C, i'm getting my masters in computer science this friday. so yes, i'm down with the C-kness

there is a ton of stuff to shift through. If you can be patient its honestly gonna take about 2 weeks to dig all of it out. Its sort of all over the place in bit and pieces. . Damn code writers.

As for the smart *** on the EFi live forums saying his Ve values were gonna be over 100%. Your gonna find out that the VE values aren't in percentages. They are Scalar Values

well i just spent four months reading through experimental code that doesn't quite do what it was supposed to, so i don't think you're gonna phase me much please send the code to marcinpohl at gmail dot com

In what way was he being a smartass? In efilive you can have the vetable displayed as a % unit. He was not saying that this meant 100% efficiency just that he had to scale his Vetable that high to bring his trims into line, something he has never had to do with the normal way he tunes.
Whether this is because other tables are out of wack or his maf calibration is wrong is something that this discussion could bring a definative answer for.

Only if you make the promise right now to keep this off list.

I think the other thing to note is that the VE percentage in Live is based off of a 'theoretical maximum' that incorporates other parts of the tune into the calculation. Just a different unit of measure...

code yes, but the ideas no. i wanna figure out the modeling for it, and make better tools with better understanding. i think i know how it works, but it'd be nice to have farther verification of the process, and be aware of more minute details.

Yes the code must stay off list and be kept 100% confidential.IE do not share.

Any luck on finding that injector data?

BTW, this is where I got my numbers from...

Well yes and no. the flow data for those injector is only done at 45psi where they are 36pph at 14.0v. with a lag of .002 seconds. they are non linear in their response curve.

I would assume they actually act like 42-44pph injectors at 60psi

So, you're saying they actually operate faster than the stock injectors at 14v, which have an offset of .003 seconds? I thought the SVO's were slower???

Only at lower pressures. They really start slowing down once you hit 45+ psi. Thats the info I have been trying to get. Its costs money to have them dynamicly flow tested. I would say its safe to assume they are actually gonna be at 30-40% slower then an LS1 injector at 60psi

Cool...cause I increased my injector offset (Volts vs MAP) 20% across the board thinking that would be safe.

Well that could cuase the richness you said you couldn't understand when you were experimenting with OP MAF tunning. 20% is going to make the injector act 20% larger. I would think a small 2-3% increase in that table would be more then fine.


this should be the rough math

Original value x .70 + orignial value equals new value. a 30% increase was alot more then you thought it was.

Am I looking at this incorrectly or would that be a 70% increase?

Example:

100 x .7 = 70
70 + 100 = 170
Increase = 70%

no 100 x .70 = 30 + 100 + 130 although when dealing with precision numbers one should actually do the math correctly. However those injectors shouldn;t need that much extra time.

Not by my calculator. Are you sure you didn't mean [original_value] x [.3] + [original_value]? That would be a 30% increase.

Ok, I write and debug C code (device drivers and kernel code) for a living...
I have a few degrees (Comp Sci, Elec. Eng, Physics)...
I'll take a look at the code and I'll keep the code itself confidential (as Marcin/RHS agreed)...

Edit: pm sent.
