Listen, the reason I was "snide" as Paul was saying, is because the tune was paid for!

We are here to help you in anyway possible, but I can seriously tell you that is past MBT on E85 at 6 degrees at peak torque. It needs to be 0-1 degree at peak torque, and then you can ramp it up quite aggressively after about 4800 RPM to say high teens (16-18*) at redline on E85 if you have enough injector. You have two choices with the information we provide... you can use it to your advantage, or you can ignore it... completely up to you

HA.....I didn't want to dive into the "paid for" tune. I fix stuff like this all the time. It really upsets me to see "tuners" do crap like this.

Pretty sure that was why JOT was not in his usual good spirits when posting as well...

Yeah, gets annoying to see "tuners" dishing out junk to paying customers. I would lend a hand but I am BEYOND busy with another project right now

I think i can get it knocked out. LOL I can't believe someone would charge a person for some crap like that! You guys have provided me with more then enough info to build a tune for his car. Then its time to put my car under the knife. I might even try to get mine done first because its my own car and I have it in my garage.

Thank you EVERYONE!! I will update this when I start building a new tune and get everyone input!

car has another 90-100whp in it.. thats a garbage tune (for a dyno tune). The timing map is ok to use as a base, just pull a crapload of timing at spool/mid range before 5k.

normal tuning for e85 consists of about 0-2* at peak and 18-19* uptop. when connecting the peak torque section to the mid/6k range slowly raise it in, like smudging the numbers together.

confirm his timing is set properly first though on car physically. that when the cranks lined up, the cam gears are lined up with the dowell pins facing up etc.

you didnt keep my pic of the comparison maps? use that and youll be good to go.. that should get you ready to kick *** then u can fine tune it from there. i think you might make what i did with my old setup and the fp red with your setup and e85.

Back on topic.

I haven't had time to log and play with his car. I going to do my car first because he's slacking on the free time. I just ordered a JDM map so I can log boost and started installing my wideband tonight and will finish tomorrow. Then the plan is to install the 1200cc injectors and get my 91 back up tune setup for road trips and when i can't find E85.

Thomas, he is taking my wideband next week, so we should be able to get his car running ****, without any of the issues he has now. BTW, I took a friend out for a ride the other night....he was terrified. lol.

I was going to go green but I've heard that the a few evo nine owners weren't all that happy with the green and wished they got the red. So my plan is to pick up a Red but for now I'm still running the stock evo IX turbo and seems to be fine for now.
