Moving forward with ECU FLash

Hitting 250 load is not only possible, I have done it.

As for hitting load 250 I don't think that would even be possible on a Legnum unless you welded the wastegate actuators shut

[Mitsiman]

off the top of my head 250 load would be around the 20 - 22 psi range? Didn't think the stock turbo's had that much in them

[Kenneth]

Yeah, I had some smoke on deceleration for a while after that... seems to have cleared a bit now though. (Or at least I haven't noticed it)

It was partially by accident to be honest, I used the red ended hose (the one with the restrictor pill in it) on the wrong side of the BCS during a blonde moment.

Classic - hopefully no long term damage

Got spares, so not too worried. Main worry is the time and inconvenience of doing part swaps.

I have a turbo upgrade in the pipe line also, so not really worried about the life span of those turbos.

So long as you can get rid of detonation, I don't think that standard turbos have enough in them to do the engine much harm.

Hitting 250 means about 1.5 bar boost pressure, i have hit 240 sometimes. But it's just a brief moment. I'm not too worried about those little bastards, if they get ruined I'll be replacing them with bigger ones. Biggest load in the max power that i've seen is somewhere around 160 -180.

This is related to previous posts in this thread but OT to the thread as a whole, for that I apologise, but I must know, how are you guys getting the Map Tracer in EvoScan to work?

I can get the table to populate by selecting "Load Calculated" and "RPM" respectively at the top, but I can't get it to load the table below. I try selecting my ROM and nothing happens, I've tried copying vr4base1.xml to EvoScans ROM folder (My Documents\Evoscan v2.7\ROMS or something like that) to no avail, copying all my defs and the ROM from EcuFlash's folders to the same, I even tried following instructions from EvolutionM on removing all definitions in vr4base1.xml apart from load/rpm scaling and fuelling/ignition tables, using both the samples and my own CSV logs, still can't get the blasted thing to work.

Despite what the above path says, I'm actually using EvoScan v2.8.0005.

Nobody has it working? :/

Pm me your email and Ill send you bits you need. I offered to do a write up a while back but noone seemed interested.

You should do a write up.

[taylor]

You should do a write up.

You should find a front diff for the v8

You should find a front diff for the v8

You should GET a v8.

[taylor]

You should get a 4g63. If I wanted a heavy lump of steel in my engine bay ill go buy a ship anchor. Plus no one likes a copyfag

The v8 is all aluminium and actually lighter than the v6..


Sorry for the thread hijack guys.

[foxdie]

PMSL! You're like Nick Mann and Richy Rich when they get together

PM sent, if you want once I've got it working I'll write up a clear and concise howto document crediting yourself and whomever else involved

[Shtiv]

Update, I was cleaning up the base xml file, I have decided I'm doing it arse about and I've now made it take 20x as long as it should. So! I'm starting again....
