    HOWTO: Ghost Cam and VCT simplification

    Cheaper than an xcal or ngauge. Plus you can change the tune with the engine running instead of waiting 5 minutes. 

    Different boost levels, launch control and all sorts are possible. There is no other product that can do this. 

    Oh yes, i do see that

    I just wonder if it's worth it for an NA?

    ZF Shift Patterns

    Update. The PCMTec will data log  the transmission shift patterns. There are several PID's you can select, I believe H8405 will data log the actual shift pattern the transmission is operating in. The TCM uses many patterns during driving, depending on normal or sports mode, partial or full throttle, sports mode or other driving characteristics. I noted around a dozen different shift patterns logged during a recent logging session.

    It's been very useful having this data logging capability to enable the correct patterns to be adjusted as required.

     

    Allllright, that's interesting

    This actually was disabled/removed as people were doing it accidentally causing them a lot of grief. The easiest way now is to press shift, then click the top and bottom of the items you want to delete. Right click and press "Scalar Delete".

    You can also use the control key if you want to delete just one or two items from different parts of the list.

    Oh ok, thankyou for explaining that👍

    How to get power out of an NA barra?

    in Engine Tuning (AUS)

    Posted

    Yep, took the words right out of my mouth lol

    I did some (educated) guessing with my FG n/a and whilst it still needs tweeking it feels pretty good on the road, I recon there's more in it.

    I don't know if this is normal but at around 140kph, it kicked back to 4th when I pressed the pedal to the floor, the front lifted and it just took off, scared me half to death lol, so I backed off

    No time to check the afr gauge so don't know what it read, but I do have it going at touch richer

    Speed Density Tuning

    There is no IMRC installed on the turbo models as it restricts airflow. It's only useful in an NA engine to increase air velocity.

    Yes, i understand that, my question is, is it meant to be set to zero or one?

    Thanks

    Speed Density Tuning

    Hi, I've come back to the subject of Speed Density again to study it some more and have a question regarding the IMRC.

    I have discovered that the switch/s are auF0013 = "0" and auF0012 is also "0".

    I take it this means "off"

    The car is the XR6 N/A with a CAI

    Also, in my limited understanding of Speed Density tuning, wouldn't it be better to have the IMRC operational?

    Thanks in advance

    Cheers

    Need some help on the same issue, any help would be appreciated 

    If you just return the directory back to default, like it was just installed by creating a backup folder for example, move your data files etc to that folder then close the program down and reopen it, it should have all the channels again, you may have to connect to the car with ignition on so it can read from it

    Ok, so are you saying that I should connect it to the car and this will enable me to get the channels back?

    Well I managed to get all the channels back again by removing the saved layout from the directory so the program had to load the default which was everything

    Bingo!!

    Hi Steve

    When you first opened the data logger, it loaded the last opened/saved file and it had the "Save Log layout" menu available at this time. Saving layouts should only be shown when connected to the vehicle, so this has been rectified for the next release

    Ok, so are you saying that I should connect it to the car and this will enable me to get the channels back?

    Hi, well I checked the Speed Density channel/s to test if it saves it.

    It did save the layout and I did have it connected to the car as well, if this made a difference I don't know..

    So. that worked strange how it didn't before.

    I uploaded a log too

    Cheers

    Also, the logging program always loads the same layout, how can I get all the channels back again?

    Thanks, we will look into it on Monday. Can you try setting up the layout and re-saving in the mean time.
