Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
Cranked it up a bit Down low is a bit of a mess, it was the first run at this level and I ran outta time so I just cropped it. But here is the important stuff...now time to clean it up and call it good for now I think.
The car finally feels FAST LOL Shit ripped today...this was still slightly uphill too haha. |

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
Oh I see that now. Your last graph is labeled 30 psi. Guess I didn't actually look at the little red line. lol

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
Well...was a long night tonight, fucking with the car.
For some odd reason after we cleared fuel trims last night and went to rescale the tune as we were maxing load out, everything poop city.
Car wouldn't stay running at idle.
So today Jon worked on it a bunch and after I finally found a new oring for my MAP sensor, the car started to run again...looks like my oring was leaking. (replace your oring if you have the omni 4 bar).
Now the car is successfully running full SD and its pretty smooth. The WOT stuff is all goofed up now because we redid so much...but we are close with driveability stuff. Hopefully we can get back to WOT here this week yet.
More to come...

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
Tonight we got some more tuning/logging in. It was kind of terrifying, my new SSP catch can while we were idling in the garage starting smoking a bit, think its just hot oil vapor from the breather but it was a lot. Maybe time to empty the catch can already.
Didn't get too far tonight, idle is slightly better and the car drives/cruises pretty good. Idle gets some pretty good swings right now, but besides that and neutral coasting/braking the car runs good...during idle still get some "surge".
Starting to get hard to explain to Jon what the hell is going on with the car. He has logs and watches live via VPN but without knowing what the car is doing its tough to explain. Getting burnt out on the car now ugh.
Just want it to work...thinking about taking it to shane/ron just to see if they can give some pointers, just talk with them and pay them for a 1/2 hour or something for advice lol.
I dunno, I miss doing WOT, so much easier and less tedious. 2150's are gay lol.

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
Shouldn't matter for idle with SD but have you done a boost leak test?

Nope, no boost leak test done yet. Just found a leak on my MAP sensor 2 days ago that appears to have helped quite a bit. |

Hey, you know what you should do before tuning a car to make sure everything is setup properly and your tune won't change later once you fix boost leaks?

Well unless your fetching your map signal immediately after the turbo, how would boost leaks on Speed Density affect idle?
