Advantage of doing that on a dyno is more consistent and smoother power runs, so you'll be able to fine tune the ignition timing better.

This is the only problem of doing it on road the software does pick up every bump in the road But you could get it close then fine tune at RR

Sounds like the person you were talking to thought the software ramped up ignition to knock detection. This dose not happen, all the software can do is reduce ignition advance not advance it!

Chill we need to find a nice flat straight road around here that is very quite?

Yes we do good luck with that its pot hole heaven

I've found parts of MK are ideal for power runs, go up the road one way, around the roundabout and back down. That way you're taking into account the change in altitude. 

 

Roads are sh*t though. I think we need to build in some mapping time into a euro trip.

or do a group hire of a dyno?

EFI is only 15 mins down the road from us Martin ( Oakmere) maybe we should go there after we have done a bit more our selves

I can vouch for Chris (efi parts) he's done a lot of work on the family's cars over the years and he really knows his stuff

Yes I spoke to him before I did my conversion and he said the Dutch software looked impressive and he asked for a link to the software.

Planning to have a power run at EFI at some point.

Right just got back from my holiday didn't spend as much money as I thought ;-) so have just emailed Peter about ecu and am going ahead with this few questions people ? How long does it take after ecu sent to get it back ? Who wants a drive in and help me map my beast ? Who has got some 630 injectors they want to sell ?

[2deano5]

I got mine back in about 5 days, 2 days to send with peter for a day or less then 2 days to get back so if you send on a Monday you could have by friday.

 

Can't help with the rest as mine is still sitting in my desk draw cos I'm a lazy ass!

there should not be a need to send it over to holland , just writing a new bin file onto the ecu would just take 10 minutes.

And how would that work with the only bin writer being located in Peters attic?

About 5 days I am here Lee, should be mapping mine again soon Davemate had some spare a few weeks ago, drop him a pm, or see who has them in a box on the shelf and replace them with zip ones they took about a week to get here. You going to see if he will do v3 as it allows for WI and different maps?

I can read and write thats the easy bit, cable adaptor is the same that Peter supplies . You need a laptop to use the obd tune software .

I bet you can.

But why would he hand over the sourcecode of 6 years of labour?

tbh if I wanted to reverse engineer peters windows software , the editing tool , then I could.

The magic is in the serverside software, not the client.

But go ahead i would say. See if you can crack the encryption
