There's an idea, you can load the stage 3 map onto my ecu on the bench. Can you supply the plug in module too (SPS3, select plus??) Cost?

 

[RobDon]

hi mate looks awesome im in two minds to go bt or stick with the hybrd, ive spent so much on engine so i should use it to its potential, what clutch you running, i had a read through thread but couldnt find it and internets slow where i am, what figures you hoping for? and is this a daily drive or a weekend toy?

Helix group N clutch and single mass flywheel. I am hoping for 360bhp+.

Not a daily driver no, was for a while but I have a cheap runabout now.

rob could you replace the hotside pipe for the standed lcr charge pipe??.

 

[RobDon]

I've just done the opposite, got rid of the LCR pipe for the Forge custom one. LCR pipe won't work as it has a funny angle at the end of it.

 

[wayne lcr]

that new pipe just looks alot cleaner to the stand lcr pipe and your rest off the bay is mint rob.

 

[gezmeister]

Big improvement that pipe is Rob, bay looks superb. Can't wait to see it with revo stage 3

 

[RobDon]

I've sent off my ECU to Alex at Backdraft Motorsport, he is going to put the REVO stage 3 map onto it and send it back to me. Meanwhile I'll fit the 550cc injectors and 3-BAR FPR so it's ready to plug in and go when it comes back.

Huge thanks to Alex for all of his help.

Genesis 550cc injectors and 3-BAR FPR fitted:

ECU should be back on Friday if all goes to plan ... then let the fun begin!

Sounds good but really can't see how they can map it when your cars not with them surly that's a generic map there supplying you with I would want map set to my car on the rolling road and mapped on the road to get the best

 

[RobDon]

The map has been written to a set hardware type, like the APR Stage 3+ code, so if all the hardware is the same then you can have it done that way. APR don't custom map every car with their turbo kit, same map gets loaded every time. With the SPS module you can further adjust the settings yourself. I will log my car and make any required adjustments to fuelling and timing myself through the SPS module and Unisettings myself. I will be advancing the timing anyway to take advantage of the water/methanol injection.

Custom mappers are few and far between so you just have to get what you can.

 

[Murdered LCR]

Fair enuf can you tweak it any more with lemniwinks if you have it etc , be good to see how it runs once done , with the meth I should imagine you can run quite high timing

 

[RobDon]

Yes it is designed to be adjustable, hence the SPS module. I can adjust boost, timing and fuelling with SPS and Unisettings.

I think you'd be surprised how un custom & un tweaked a 'custom' remap is.

Sooner go with something that is a known quantity, and with the tool that the SPS is to change the settings.

I had immense fun adjusting Simons. Damned hard though, you want a nice long log & with GT28RS whatever gear you were in just ran round the clock so fast.

You'll enjoy that Rob

I'm no expert was just asking so I understand things more , I like to try and learn new things I just thought maps were better set up on RR with the car

 

[m0rk]

One 'VAG' tuner used to run K04 maps on their Big turbo conversions with stickers over the MAF to confuddle the sensor reading.

They used a dyno too, and called it custom

 

[Murdered LCR]

Ohhh nice cow boys lol , would like to think you pay for a decent product but not in this day and age

 

[RobDon]

This is true, my map was written when I first had the GT2X installed, it made 281bhp. I was still on the same map after having the turbo rebuilt into a hybrid, different manifolds fitted, different intercooler, more boost, water injection, more timing, etc. and had no problems, just the fuelling needed tweaked for the SEM manifold. Power went from 281 to 320bhp on the same map. So just how 'custom' was that map?

Brilliant. That made me laugh out loud.

 

[IbizaAlex]

All mapped. Just shipping it back to you.

 

[RobDon]

Brilliant, big thanks again. Payment done just now.
