Tuning it's easy but when you are in the dyno paying for the time you need to be quick and know already your kung fu .

 

^^^ i have him on block so if he's trying to say something i cant see it... jajajaja

 

^probably shouldn't announce that in on topic threads.

^ first one I ever had to block



tuning isn't that hard when you actually start looking at some logs or graphs. If you make minor changes you can see the differences on the log/graph and then make additional minor changes. You already have a base map, as long as you save it somewhere safe and don't do anything drastic you can tune yourself, trust me.

 

thing is i never really had anybody sit down and show me... i kinda tried to read and teach myself.... not a good idea

probly is easy if i had somebody show me and explain everything.

 

if you ever get down to Charlotte I can give you a quick tutorial. If you end up getting a wideband and the cabling I can walk you through some stuff over the phone if you like. I promise once you see how everything acts when the car is hooked up to the software it will become much simpler.

 

170 hp ? Wow that thing must pull like a freight train!!!! do you have any secret mods and who is your tuner!!!!

 

Thats 170 WHP to you buddy

It actually pulls like your evo, only fwd & non turbo buddy

My only mod is the driver and the tuner, both of which is myself - No secret buddy

 

^^well put

 

Tearin' up the streets R329?

I still want that camshaft, but decided to order my rims and spoiler!

Camshaft goes in next

 

^what tools are needed for self tuning, is it 'hard' ?

 

wideband, datalogging capability, piggyback, laptop, and no.

 

Its not hard once you know what you're doing.

I believe with tuning, you need to be thrown into the deep end!

 

so with a fixed up lancer what kinda cars do you like to compare to.... like with an evo i love to spank m3's ferraris and gallardos, some misc other cars. Although I dont condone street racing I'm curious as to what kinda car you guys would be stoked to keep up with ?

 

actualy 20 horse diffence isnot that bad i seen 100 horsepower diffrence from dyno to dyno with the same evo.


sorry my keyboardd is buggoing outtty.

 

for NA: stock wrx, preludes, civics, scions, most heavy cars with v8's, most small v6's.

for turbo: stock sti and evo, pretty much all unmodded v6 vehicles, pretty much all unmodded 4cyl street vehicles, most heavilly modded 4cyl vehicles, some lightly modded high performance 6's (think z3 etc.)

you might think your car is much better than ours, but it doesn't mean our cars suck. Maybe if you could open those eyes a little an understand that people with little amounts of money have to buy little amounts of power the world would be a better place. I doubt it though
