  1. Took my car to the dyno today to have a go at tuning the fuel and ignition tables. I didn't get as much time as I would have liked but the engine went well and felt really strong. The engine is a standard f54/p90 NA with a 2mm headgasket. Standard NA manifold and turbo exhaust manifold. No porting just a Holset hy35 and megasquirt controlling fuel and spark.

    First run hit 256bhp@5,849rpm 279.2lb/ft@4,064rpm 8PSI boost

    then hit 304.4bhp@5752rpm 316.2lb/ft@4163rpm 12psi boost

     

    The mixture still needed tweaking after 4000rpm it was rich from that point on.

  2. Has anyone tried this kit before?

    program it with this

    looks like a great idea, I just ordered it and will be installing it as soon as it gets here. Will let you guys know how well it works.

  3. Car is running the best it ever has now....I have an profec A boost controller whic works really well but I want rpm based boost control so I'm going to use this :

    and this

    this way you can program boost levels at given duty cycles....looks like just what I've been looking for. I will do a write up once it's installed.

  4. I think it did cause a bit of noise on the ignition....I'm still getting the odd 11,000rpm spike but typically only 1 spike in 10mins of driving.... Yesterday I was watching the laptop screen as the car started to missfire you could clearly see the mixture was too rich....I turned off accell enrichment just to make sure it was the fuel table. Going to try power filters on the megasquirt supply to get rid of that random spike, although its not really much of a problem now. Cutting out coming out of every corner on a race track is much more annoying :)

  5. I think the stock dished pistons on the P90 head get like what, 7.4-1? So with flat-top pistons and a 2mm headgasket that would put you around 8-1?

     

    So with the higher CR you wouldn't be able to run quite as much boost, you'd get more low rpm torque IIRC.

     

    Therefore, and correct me if I'm wrong, because of the lower boost and less timing to avoid knock the engine wouldn't have as much peak horsepower, but with the higher CR would have more low end torque aka more streetability.

     

    I had .5mm over size pistons, I did measure everything including the gasket and it worked out at 8.35:1. I'm running 14psi now with no knock and 18deg of timing...my FMIC works very well as my IAT doesn't move more than a few deg....on an 20deg day my temps are around 26deg. The car is very very responsive and has more power than you can put down on the road...looking at the logs I rarely use more than 50% throttle.

  6. Hi Nick, mine does this too but not as bad, I think its about 0.4 out. Like Big P said it's probably a ground issue unless you don't have the wideband output set right or the setting in MS right. I power mine from the Cig socket so I'm guessing that's why it's out a little. My first sensor just died giving an 04 pump cell error...I always forget to switch the thing on when I'm driving, I should really finish tuning the top areas of my fuel tables and take out the wideband. Are you going to take it to RWYB anytime soon?

  7. I think I have found the problem. When I wired up the EDIS to the VR sensor I used a single core shielded cable using the core for 1 wire and the shield for the other..... It must have been a late one. Anyway I changed the wire to a 2 core shielded type, connected the shield at one end and the missfire has gone.
