eCtune

I havent messed with my tune in a while since r5 .today I was adjusting my ect comps and uploaded the rom with no other changes. I noticed the fuel at idle was lean but while driving or any type of no idle state the R/f would be fine. I uploaded the original .cal that I had been driving on and its d...

Okay. Thanks for the info. Now I know for sure its the climate control its self. Man what fun to change. Yuck!!

Do you know offhand what the input voltage is supposted to be for the ACSW input? I checked everything else and even tried two different ECU's so need to know to be be able to test it. thanks for the help Calvin.

that is a great kit. I have used them several times on the cobalt SS' as they are so prone to detonation from heat soaking. I have never had a problem with knock on those engines running the boost juice and the stage 2 kit. you hit MBT before it knocks atleast on those engines.

I will check it in the morning and see what happens. I didnt report it yet because I want to make sure before I blame the software. Knowing my luck it is always something that is a headache to repair.hahaha

I downloaded the webupdate and extracted it into my root. It still won't allow me to update to r6. I wanted to do a clean install but chris used his version when he installed it and then deleted the files. So I can't reinstall ectune. Can you email me a copy or do I have to go back to chris? Also I ...

You should be able to add the oilers to the f block. If I remember correctly it is like the be series in respect to the oil channeling. So you would have to get the oilers and bolts for the b and install them. Some guys don't like them saying it reduces oil pressure, but I never liked ls blocks beca...

Hey chris on another note. Besides bitching about widebands hahaha. The car runs good. I riched up part throttle a bit just for comfort reasons. So base to about 750 mbar its 14.8 a/r so only getting 24 mpg now. Plugs are finally getting a very light color too will take pics so you can see. After al...

Okay, thanks Calvin

I am going to buy a new laptop and would like to know what I would do for the software. Do I have to go back to chris to have him reinstall it or do I need to buy a new license?

It seems to be doing fine. Although I can tell it is slightly out in a few spots like chris was saying. Not a lot, but I would never tune with it. I guess being an engineer and a machinist I like my tools to be as accurate as possible. I am thankful for the warning though. It would have driven me nu...

I will know for sure this weekend. I am coming to work friday just to machine the mounting plate so I can install it. Plus I just want to play around with the closed loop wideband. Hahaha

I took all the programs out of my start up folder. That seemed to stop the problem. I think my laptop is to slow to have all of that going at once since its .net I will keep at it but I sure its more my laptop and less an ectune issue.

I will see if my laptop is updated to the latest .net I haven't had it on the internet for awhile since I only use it for tuning. Don't want some ms update causing problems.

Perhaps that's why I have heard people complaining about the scaling offset changing threw the rpm range. I haven't tried it, but I am sure you know better than I do.I just generally assume its user error more than hardware error. I just didn't want to stick my plm in the car for fear someone would ...
