28 psi, pump running, engine not running. (running on battery voltage 12 ish volts) 32 psi, engine running, vacuum line disconnected from FPR (about 1K rpm, I would assume battery voltage would be about 14 ish volts) My fuel pressure gauge is hooked into my supply line, so in the end this was the easiest way to check, since I use my laptop to tune my Megasquit, this was just a 'natural' thing to do. Honestly I'm not sure, I'm having issues with getting my wideband and megasquirt showing the same AFR reading, (the output of my wideband is doing something screwy), so all I have to go by is looking at the AFR display, the problem with that is, I need to watch the road as well I'll be installing another wideband soon, so hopefully I will be able to log it Just had a though, I'll set up my 'web cam' to show the RPM, AFR and my boost gauge.. and thank you, to all that replied, Nigel

I'm running the standard N/A (MR30skyline) fuel pump, with the standard N/A fuel regulator, on vacuum the fuel pressure is 32-35psi, on throttle it's 42-45psi, under boost (15ish psi), 5+K and above it's 50psi, I originally though I was running out of pressure, so to check, I put a 'web cam' under the bonnet (watching the fuel pressure gauge), and recorded my 2 runs .

Hi, I'm not sure if this belongs here or maybe the MS Forum My problem is on my Turboed "N/A L24" engine, it's running lean. my engine specs are: L24 N/A standard dish pistons, N47 head, N42 Manifold RB30 (200cc) injectors (low) EDIS Megasquirt II v3.0 board, v2.88 code Intercooler I'm running 15PSI boost, with 50psi fuel pressure at 5+K, at 6 - 7K, it goes learn I'm not sure if the injectors are up to supplying enough fuel, or it's some thing else, maybe some one else who has played with N/A L24 (TonyD) can give me a idea what size injectors they need for 15PSI, 7K rpm Nigel

Since not one answered my question, I decided to buy one, and test it myself Nigel

When I did mine I removed the started motor, used a big flat blade screw driver to 'lock' the engine (the flywheel ring gear teeth), used a five foot pipe on the end of my socket (27mm) to undo mine.. if you have a air / electric ratchet, it would be easier. Nigel

Hi, Has anyone used these EGT setups http://cgi.ebay.com.au/DIGITAL-EGT-THERMOMETER-PYROMETER-W-PROBE-NPT_W0QQitemZ200336231302QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item200336231302 Nigel

The standard atmosphere (symbol: atm) is a unit of pressure and is defined as being equal to 101.325 kPa.[citation needed] These other units are equivalent: 760 mmHg (torr), 29.92 inHg, 14.696 PSI, 1013.25 millibars. One standard atmosphere is standard pressure used for pneumatic fluid power (ISO R554), and in the aerospace (ISO 2533) and petroleum (ISO 5024) industries. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmospheric_pressure Nigel

Hi, In the end I exported my VE table as a .csv file, imported it into a spread sheet, inserted blank columns between the old RPM, MAP ranges, create a formula for the differences between the 2 RPM / MAP ranges that I needed (larger - smaller )/ 2+ smaller (the division needs to be about what percent of the changes you want), a bit of mucking around, and I know it wont be perfect, but it's a good starting place. Nigel

Hi, I need to recreate my VE table with different "VE Table RPM Range" and "VE Table Load Range", and I'm wondering is there a tool to accept my existing table and extrapolate to the new range I want ie, RPM from this 500 800 1100 1400 2000 2600 3100 3700 4300 4900 5400 6000 to 800 1365 1930 2495 3060 3625 4190 4755 5320 5885 6450 7015 and MAP range from 35 45 55 65 75 85 95 110 125 145 165 185 to a new max of 200 any help will be appreciated Nigel

lol

I use 2x AA batteries (3 v) to open mine,

This is mine, a bit messy though. Nigel

Hi, I've been doing some research into this, and I'm after some information on the piece that fits into the exhaust stream, mostly what shape the end is and how far it fits into the exhaust tube and the angle it's attached. I assume it would be best to have it 6 inches or so down from the O2 sensor, and use a catch can with it. Also,with the catch can, should it have it's own breather, so it doesn't create to much vacuum on the engine, see pic1 and 2, something I'm not sure about, should the system allow clean air into the valve cover, and suck it out the engine block vent (to create a passage for circulation), or suck it from both ends (creating a vacuum in the engine). Nigel

I did some data logging yesterday, after a hill climb, IAT hit 30C instead of the 60C ish it did before the intercooler went in, I must say I'm stoked with how well it runs, it revs easier, at 6.5k RMP - I lifted my foot, and it seems to want to go higher, and the increase in power from N/A to Turbo, the only down side now is in the wet, I must be so much more careful, it breaks traction so easily in the first 3 gears. Nigel

Is this for MS II, or extra ?, the reason, some one else said a similar thing, but that was for extra Nigel

Here you go, since I have 15 minutes to burn Make sure you have the 'BoostVacuumGauges.ini' file in this location.. (PIC 1) At the bottom of 'BoostVacuumGauges.ini' there are 2 lines regarding where the gauges will show - use notepad to open it. (PIC 2), if you only want the boostgauge, and not the other one, make it look like this ; gauge7 = vacuumGauge, Note to change the location of the gauge change the number gauge2 Now find yours cars 'custom.ini' file (PIC 3) now add this line #include "boostVacuumGauges.ini" where it's shown in PIC 4 with notepad Nigel

Hi, I been looking for this for a while now, and in the end megatune allready had the option, it just needed to be enabled so, the file lives under ..MegaTune2.25mtCfgexamplesboostVacuumGauges.ini the instructions to use are inside the file, ; To use, stick an include line in the custom.ini file. ; ; #include "boostVacuumGauges.ini" very easy in the end. Also I found today how to show PSI in MegaLogViewer from the menu select, Calculated Fields Optional Fields Boost(psi) and add it to your quick views (Boostpsi) Nigel

can you post a picture of your coil, I know of 2 types of coils, that have different wiring. Nigel

Are you going to use o-rings or gasket to seal the water ports (head side of flange) ? Nigel

You could get oversize rings (next size up), and file them to the correct gap.

Heating till red make the copper go very soft, I do the same with my turbo spacer copper gaskets. Nigel

You notice that the outside of the capacitor is metal, with a tag to mount it , that's the second wire (so to speak). So the wire goes to 12v at the coil, and mount the capacitor near the coil. Nigel

Looking at the 2 pictures, the top one (checker), says Com3 is ok, the bottom picture (loader), says Com1 is invalid, looks like you need to tell the loader to use Com3 and not Com1 Nigel

Hi, I finished my intercooler, and it work wonderful, now I think I may be needing a new clutch, Nigel

Hi, The original hole was 20mm, I open it up to about 24mm as for the housings, the first picture ( above ) shows the type of housing it is, it's about 1 inch deep At the moment, I'm fitting my intercooler, I will run the 10psi actuator, and see how it goes. Nigel
