TIP: Rough maps? This could help..

Post by TopMountGSR »

I was having bad problems with my maps being really rough and the lines actually crossing back and forth. I couldn't fix it for the life of me, it was just what the car was wanting and what the wideband was logging and showing. BEFORE: Image AFTER: Image All I did in this case was raise the injector offset and re adjust the maps. I had this problem a while back with rough maps with different injectors and I had to lower the injector offset and correct in the map. So basically if you get rough maps try going down or up a few points with your injector offset. Hope this helps, dk

The DSM 450's I have on one car are like this. Zero offset will make idle super lean, everything else rich (stock rescaling and adjusting batt. offsets). I got a map that supposedly ran well with them, and one of the correction settings was at 18 vs my 0. World of a difference. The other thing I do is try to tune one-three individual columns, then semi-calibrate the whole map using that. Wacky lines like that normally start when you adjust individual cells. You almost have to get every load cell filled with an AFR to do that effectively. However when the whole column is off by X amount, its far easier to adjust the whole thing (rough), then go after individual trouble cells (fine tune) afterwards. I'd have loved to see this post 3 weeks ago :wink: Thanks anyways.
