Dont be so sure about that.. There are other tuning solutions for these cars which is not a CAPA product.

my icc has been sitting on 13.7 for some time, and its now gone down to 13.5.. average speed says 38km/h 4speed mk2 xr6t, with a 2500rpm convertor.. I get on average 440km to a tank of about 62litre's..

No, it doesnt grab the feed via injector duty cycle, The PCM talks to it via the CAN bus, and tells it how much fuel its consuming per injector event. So doesnt matter what size injector you got, it needs to be scaled into the PCM for the car to run anyways.

Nice AVI Fat Tony

I would come anyways maybe they will be nice and let you on the in field (not likey, but yuo can ask)

I think we are in a bit of a bother then.... UPDATE: BVW is now only 3 nights long!!!!!!! LOL just kidding

Last time they were parked outfront of the roooms. You can get creative and tie a string to your car, run it into your room, and tie it to your hands....

No kittens friday night? I thought it was mandatory for there to be a kittens night every night. Anyways, Wouldnt it be good to rock up saturday to the ford nationals ? or did we want to esentially book the place out with our BVW group? Either way, I think keep calder on friday night in the plans, as I know I dont want to goto heathcote to race... (unless you bring a set of cv's just in case.. LOL) danny.

Edit.. Sat 15th is also Heathcotes Ford Drag nationals.. Maybe up for a vote between heathcote or Sandown500? Danny.

Try short shifting approx 300rpm to 500rpm eariler.. If it stops doing, the plugs are fouling due to torque restriction / rev limitor during the gear change. (Assuming its auto), or your just touching the rev limitor if its a manual.

Its not always Valve spring related.. It can be 1 of 2 things.. Valve springs (been mentioned already), or Spark plugs fouling up (didnt you just say you just changed them??) what spark plugs did you put in them, and what gap did they have? My cars had valve springs done, and I've still had the issue, but I've since fixed it.. danny.

ohh, and the blue sti, full engine rebuilt, bigger this bigger that etc etc, has 350kw at the wheels.. the other two were closer to 250kw at the wheels... ahh small 4wd cars with power are great!! but personally I'd take a EVO over a STI, based on nothing but looks alone, although the later sti's look the stuff..

Well.. Friday night was out clubbing with Fat tony, awsmxr and a few others.. And that night, a Blue WRX absolutely handed it to us in Fat Tony's car... After the blue one handed it to us, there was a White STI that handed it to us.. and then to go the hat trick, there was a grey sti which handed it to us....... I'm talking 10+ car lengths.. with the blue wrx.. It just so happened all 3 of these cars were tuned by Hi Torque engines in dandy/doveton.. And if anyone knows Dwuane knows he knows his WRX's... Had a good chat with all of them when we pulled over anyways.. Great blokes.. Danny

come polish my interamacooler

your screwed get it? haha

Is your name ENVY-T as well?

Nickname: Headsex Need accommodation?: No On what nights: none Going on the Kittens bus?: Fark yeh! Going to Calder Circuit Day: Yes - spectator Going to Calder or Heathcote Drag Day: Yes - Calder park (no heathcote)

I'm famous again James, im always pleased to help Danny.

if you install injectors.. You need to towtruck it there.. so.. either fit them yourself and pay for towtruck. or get them to fit it and let them charge you....

Problem with the traction control was only designed to stop wheelspin from a 240kw motor.. Your producing over 340kw at the engine now.. With nankangs, face it, they have no traction what so ever, so the car wheelspins easy.. Part of the traction control system is to only attempt to control wheelspin by heavilty retarding spark and pulsing the back breaks for X seconds.. If it finds its not doing that, and or the acceleration of the wheels is increasing not decresing, It gives up and logs a failure code.. Hense the requirement to turn car off and back on again to unfreeze the light. The main reason for this is excessive spark retard, especially in a turbo vehicle causes the EGT to go through the roof, and that aint exactly a good thing for prolonged periods of time. Now that you have better grippy tyres, your finding the degree of wheelspin you have now is less due to the increased grip, and Traction control is able to control it (everytime it flickers its pulling spark timing out, and clamping the rear brakes depending on how excessive th wheelspin is) Ahh, the pleasures of Open Duty cycle controlled boost........ Get your car retuned by a tuner who knows how to tune with closed boost control.. Your boost "Should" remind the same regardless of the time of day, or more importantly the air density/tempreture. danny.

I wasnt sure of the exact problem/issue, but Barry suggested its not recommended programming passthru, however it does work. Either way, these pcm's aint as dumb as LS1's pcms, and its not possible to brick them (sure if you blank them and dont get the first block written which contains the vin number, then any "VIN LOCKED" flash programmer will refuse to program it) But yes.. Sniper only tune, with no box.. close to $1000 in cost? Yes, it will leave Capa behind.... and 90% of the existing market that own the boxes.. All I'm saying is.. the problem workshops are faced with is having to carry each products software if they contain flash boxes as the form of programming.. Or your effectively loosing out on half the market.. danny

haha check out FATZ's Page http://www.myspace.com/fatzzz_xr6turbo I especially like the "heros" and "who to meet" (click on them).. LOL

well, one of them is 2 week away.. like it has been for a while.. and the otherone.. Unsure.. but I cant talk about that one with very much detail as ive been held at arms length.. one of them has a flash box as well to cater for those who want boxes.. but both have direct passthru cable programming.

theres a few I can think of in talking with jerry.. one being the usec peiod of the wastegate solenoid.. why would you want this period to be changed in result of burning out the solenoid.. there are a few extra spark tables, I believe there is one based on CAT temp for cold starts.. personally shouldnt need to be touched as ford designed it to fire off the CATS asap during cold startup. but believe me when I say we have all the tables we need to get a excelant result in the tunes.. although there;s that pesky "torque table" which is broken.... AGAIN danny.

feeding the power on with the pedal does give better acceleration than slamming it open with the standard ford calibration.. that's how you sneak up on the transmission truncation torque tables... there are also shift torque reductions that you cannot manipulate with driving, its always there between gear changes in a auto.. but, I dont see where your going with this.. all custom tunes are able to address this, and disable them danny.
