Have you looked into trying to log with EVOscan??

 

We have a X going on the dyno saturday and I will see if evoscan can log it.

 

I tried but it did not work. I didn't spend a whole lot of time trying to get it to go but it would not connect.

Wow those are really good gains!Great job!

 

Nice pics of the new wheels on your site. Nice PS of the car with the new wheels, looks a lot better after the drop!!!!

 

The X uses CAN bus to communicate between everything in the car. It works much different then the older generation Evolutions.

 

where is part 2? Keep up the good work!

wow i never knew people actually respected vivid. these guys are extremly hated in the suby world. weird. maybe they just hate us (yes i know you built a 08 wrx and used to have a bugeye)

Why do they hate them? Just curious since I'm about to buy a crap load of stuff from the their site.

 

There are several guys working on Evo's that were pretty much banned from the NASIOC stuff. It doesnt necessarily reflect the true status of the company though. Subbie guys are a bit off in my experience. At least, they are on the forums. Very very odd crowd. Most of the vendors here have proven themselves and have feedback associated with it. So if you have concerns about the vendor, just look up their feedback. I can say Vivid is just fine and you dont need to worry.

Anyway, I am interested in how this is all playing out. I am very curious as to how the ECU deals with these changes over the long term. I would also be VERY impressed if Mitsu is using a WBO2 sensor on the car now. I am curious if the Mitsu ECU is going to take the route some other vehicles have. Where you make changes, and the ECU slowly makes adjustments to get the vehicle running back to the stock profiles for fueling etc.

I think everyone can agree that this is the most advanced vehicle mitsu has ever created, and the switch to the CAN bus means there are a lot more checks going on then on our previous ECU's. Man, I wish I didnt have a full time job that I had to attend everyday. I would love to spend time trying to figure out what is going on with this new tech all day instead.

 

Thanks for the support.

Updates have been slower than anticipated but rest assure that progress is being made. The exhaust was 99% finished today. We been busy the last few days, Mitch will also play around with a few things and hopefully make some progress.

vivid, when you guys dynoe'd your X, did you encounter any problems or setbacks with the X fighting the dyno? ie: ASC, ABS, s-awc, trying to fight the dyno?

 

^+1 Good question.
