Al i sent you my ECU this past week to get the boost cut eliminated and i was ont he dyno this weekend and it was hitting boost cut all over the place. I cant go WOT anywhere because everytime at about 5k and 6500 it hits boost cut hard. I dont understand why this would be happening. Any insight?

 

There should be no boost cut on your car at this time.

When the "boost cut" hits - does it trigger a cel ? Have you read the cel's ?

Do you have a OBDII tool with freeze frame data ? Can you set to record data at time of cel trigger?

There are some other possibilities which may be cuasing your condition - such as spark

 

I havent gotten any SES lights or anything. I have grabbed a frame here and you can see when boost cut it happening. everything pretty much freaks out. Ill attach it in a moment. Also, ive had a spark blow out before, and it was nothing like this.

 

heres the attachment

 

al,

my humblest apologies. you were right, i decided to try out some new plugs that i had sitting around and the problem is totally gone.

i feel like a horses ***.

 

What hardware/software do you use for those readouts and where do you get it?

 

thats the ECU + piggyback

 

Funny thing you posted on the Vishnu forum:

People read these you know .....

 

One of the sad realities of the internet is that people sometimes have other problems with their car which they blame on the tuner. In this case it was the spark plugs. So I have to waste my time tel you how to fix your car - AND be called "rat garbage" at the same time - lovely.

 

BTW - for those interested - soon the Ecutek "Personal Tuner" edition will be out which will have end user tunability built right int the flash - no need to buy a ecu plus

 

disregard my apologies then, there was a reason i made th em. and there was also a reason i deleted my post and said i felt like a horses ***.

misery loves company.

 

I like this idea of the Ecutek any idea on cost?

 

It wil be avialable in 3 versions

A basic flash - $650

A product which lets you change between several maps - like a race map and two pump gas maps - etc about $900

and a Product which gives you unlimited self tuning ability, a base tune and a short tutorial on the dyno to show you how the tuning is done About $1200

 

 

I never question Al's tuning . BTW AL...when you tuned my car - you tuned it at about 10.9 - 11.0 (because of having the no exhaut). I put in a 3" exhaust with SS O2 housing - did my car go richer or leaner?
