Made some slight adjustments on the top end of the map to get more fuel in and took the car for a short trip around the block.

Logged a blast from 0 to 100 mph, around a roundabout and then back up to 100mph.

Added Manifold Air Temperature - need to relocate the air cleaner - but still managed to stay below 5o deg C.



I'm still getting spikes from the LM-1, yellow trace, but it's still too close to the coil.

Inners seem slightly richer this time.

I think that I am close to the point that I cannot get any more fuel in the outers and all the extra will go to the inners.

Not a problem in this instance as I'm running this engine at as high a boost as I plan to go.

If you are wondering what's going on at 310 seconds, I started to slow for the roundabout because there was a vehicle in front, then realised that if I kept on it a bit longer I could get past him *oh well*

In that case I take it that you're at the limit of the injectors.

Would be interesting to know how much power you're actually making with those injectors.

From that event at 310 seconds, it seems that it still needs some tuning in that load area to get the perfect AFR match. But at everywhere else seems spot on.

Can you log the throttle position?

I'm guessing from 310 seconds (and Jean's comments) that so far you've done most of your mapping work at WOT?

I can log TPS, or at least Sturgeo can, probably.

You are correct in that I have concentrated the mapping on WOT because we were planning on running Avon and MITP. I did not want to be running of the optimum at high boost.

It's not far out over the whole range, but needs time to refine. But with all the other projects on the go, it's taking a bit of a sideline.

Yeah we can, infact i might have got it logging it aswell and hes not publishing it in the graph.

We've done very little mapping for cruise and as you've said most of it has been for WOT.

EDIT: oops he beat me to it!

Nice overall but that outer reading is still very noisey....

Maybe more than that, when it spikes, it spikes at the recording (or sampling) limit quite often.

Is it possibly a wiring fault ??? you spoke earlier on another thread about a dodgey plug IIRC.

The widebands are too close to the coil and HT leads. I've wrapped the sensors in bacofoil, but still cannot isolate them completely from the ignition noise.

I had much stabler readings until I shifted the widebands onto the sample tubes and near the coil.

I'm about to change the LM-1 for an AEM gauge. I'll try and sort it out then.

The trial was on our private test track which has a dual carriageway.

The vehicle was there for authenticity purposes *happy*

I might try MK for real word testing :)

MK has lots of roundabouts for testing :)

Cannot be used for mapping as they are already in use for suspension testing! :)

am i right in reading that as running 25+ psi?

25 psi absolute, so 10psi boost.
