\"Chemical kinetics show that the formation of NO and other oxides of nitrogen increase very strongly with increasing flame temperature. This would imply that the highest concentration of NOx should be for slightly rich mixtures, those that have the highest flame temperature. However, oxygen is also...

iPhone Dynolicious

http://www.dynolicious.com/ I just stumbled across this today and I'm curious of what everyone thinks. Could this program be used effectively as a tool to tune timing on the street? Has anyone had the chance to fool around with it yet? Here is a short video that compares results on the dyno and at ...

This is a very helpful thread, would it be possible to explain how to tune the Idle Ignition Correction table since my timing seems to be jumping around quite a bit at idle. Is an idle correction of 3.5 to -3.5 degrees a good amount to use over -300 to 300 rpm?

Well when it is connected, I can't get any consistency in the readings. For example, once the engine is warm, I'll set the idle to 14.7ish using the injector calibration. If I turn on the headlights to try to work with the battery offset table then turn them back off, the idle will read a different ...

Wideband problems

I am currently a eCtune pro user and I have set up an Innovate LC-1 wideband for permanent use in my car (turbocharged 97 acura 2.2 CL). My wideband has not been performing properly and I'm trying to get to the root of the problem. Some of the time when I connect to datalogging (with the innovate se...

OBD2 Ignition Timing

I just replaced the distributor on my 97 acura 2.2 CL. The car is OBD2 so the distributor does not turn to advance/retard the base ignition timing. As far as I know the ecu sets the base timing itself for OBD2 cars. When I checked the pulley with a timing light I found that it was around 8 or 9 degr...

CEL problems

I just installed a turbo into my 97 acura 2.2 CL and I'll be using eCtune to tune it. I'm running a P28 using a OBD2a -> OBD1 conversion harness. At first I was getting a CEL 22 (vtec pressure switch) but I got rid of that by disabling it in the rom. Now I'm getting a CEL 9 (cylinder pressure sensor...
