hmm maybe mine will show up today!! =)

WHoa.. so I made a thread on MSefi.com and look at this reply !! http://www.msefi.com/viewtopic.php?t=19312 If you tell it to use 40degrees timing then you have asked for advanced timing. That number is the absolute timing, not a retard from present setting. Trust me, I helped write it and I use it on my car. I agree that the wording can be confusing - I'd never looked at it that way before. It should say "soft limit timing (absolute deg)" and will be changed at the next maintenance release of 029q WOW .. uh oh .. I hope I havent hurt my car!

http://megasquirt.sourceforge.net/extra/revlimiter.htm That makes no sense.. I mean look at the soft rev it says "retard" (deg) and the description on the MSnS extra site says the soft rev can retard the ignition to a setpoint.. so your saying I could type in a value lets say 40.. and then when i hit the soft rev limiter.. it will ADVANCE my timing from 21 degrees to 40?!?! that would be BAD under boost

Yep... but I did also change the TPS dot a little bit.. other than that.. its great

yeh i changed my fuel VE values for a certain RPM and kPA.. it was leaning out under load.. so i fixed it now =) made the values richer

well i DID.. untill that bolt sheard off.. good point Jon I didnt think about the engine moving.. hmmm.. this sucks.. all that time.. gone.. ill think of something

Soo I am *attempting to perfect* the Holset turbo.. and the ZXT actuator.. I had a aluminum bracket and it flexed alot giving me diff boost levels all the time.. so I cut, welded, and grinded down a nice bracket made of steel .. which bolts onto one of the four 17mm bolts holding the turbo onto the manifold.. So I give it some paint.. and hook it up.. on the final minute i go to tighten it down.. and Son of a bitch.. i sheared off the bolt!! DAMNIT!! There is soo little room there is no where else to mount this effn thing.. so I got pissed held it to the brake heat shield and welded it on.. hey it works..

Welp im running 10 degree retard for the Soft Rev limit... for ONE second.. then it hits the HARD rev limit.. which cuts THREE sparks .. and still sprays fuel.. I noticed in nuetral.. like lets say launching .. and revving up.. when it hits the rev limiter.. this SPOOLS the turbo.. and I am actually running 12psi !! IN NEUTRAL!! so this means.. one very very slippy launch.. LoL unless I had sticky tires thought it was kinda cool that I can build boost for launching Also for the OVERBOOST protection.. I am cutting FUEL AND SPARK at 17psi.. this is due to the following... Cutting spark meant fuel would dump into the exhuast manifold.. now a VERY hot exhuast manifold will cause this unburned fuel to ignite.. once this ignites it explodes.. and spools the turbine.. which in turn creates even MORE boost.. so this kinda defeats the purpose.. so I am cutting fuel and spark .. i will go from 11.2 AFR to 20.9 AFR (free air calibration) with a POP from the exhuast.. so it obviously works and protects my engine from overboosting with my Holset.

Hey guys... i have a quick question.. what is the proper spark cut for the soft rev limit retard?? I am using 40 degrees.. which I fear is WAY WAY WAY too retarded after some searching on the forums... ( I am running 17psi on a 8.3:1 CR and MegaSquirt n Spark extra 021u and the stock Nissan dizzy) is 10 degrees adequit? I noticed when I go into the HARD CUT mode.. the RPM's go from like 6,200 RPM down to almost 4,200 RPM .. its a HUGE RPM loss.. is this correct? another question is overboost protection.. is this damaging to the engine? during my datalogs when the hard cut kicks in when I overboost.. the MAP spikes up dramatically.. and looks like a MIS FIRE (which it is obviously) I fear this is damaging the engine rather than protecting it

are you sure it was the light bulb that was burned out?? sometimes those wires short out!

shut it Austin..

i'm running a HY35W ... 4" Aviation ducting.. used on turbocharged aircraft Next to the stocker T3

you are crazy dude.. LOL.. very impressive so far though!! very unique! let us know how she is on the track!

i would never use a clear hood.. no matter how pretty my engine bay is .. just asking for the car to be stolen.. look everyone! I have a big turbo and very expensive engine components!

right.. the entire fuel map will not show up on the screen at once.. but you can scroll down and left and right.. and view the rest of the MAP.. oh well.. awsome you have it running!! Palm Tune is awsome! I sent Roger a PM requesting a program .. and within a week he made it! i was soo happy!!

DO not run more than 10psi with no intercooler.. I ran 15psi with my Z.. and a Isuzu Diesal NPR intercooler.. she was fine

Ooops I didnt read it was for a diesal

ohh dear.. hook up the vacuum tube.. to a port on the INTAKE manifold.. that's it.. when the pressure goes from BOOST (full throttle) to VACUUM (no throttle) the BOV opens

awsome dude!! Love it!! no turbo this time???

i ran a turbo on my n47/n42 combo.. noo biggie.. just use an intercooler.. and i used a stock head gasket.. tuning is the key.. TUNING

ACT is superb.. im running a hybrid setup.. so it's ACT heavy duty pressure plate.. and a street organic disc.. so its very driveable.. and holds 415ft/lb .. which ill never touch

well you can't necessairly "save" fuel maps.. and then load em up whenever.. the PDA "reads" the VE and spark tables from the Megasquirt unit.. the PDA allows you to view and modify the fuel and spark values .. to upload and "save" the fuel maps to the Megasquirt unit.. hit BURN ... I used to tune tune tune.. and I never "burned" the values into the MS unit.. so I would tune it perfectly.. then turn off the car.. and turn it back on. and the settings were trashed.. and the old settings would load up.. this was because I never "burned" the new values into the MS unit.. just modified them temporarily..

money sent

effn show off .. but *sigh* SUPERB craftsmanship

hit me up on AIM.. i sent ya a message on there a few minutes ago.. I can walk ya through it.. Roger Enns is an awsome guy.. he has put so much time into his programs
