How exactly can I find the right mapping for my mod.

I have read lots of posts and still cant decide which one should i go.

2014 GSR evo x

Nidivia N1 catback.

ETS intake.

3port.

probably testpipe. still thinking.

Please help...

 

none of the ots map will fit your mods assuming no testpipe yet.
you will need to ge a custom tune.

if you do add test pipe then you can use stage 3 map with ets intake calibration that cobb supplier. you can find the instuction on cobbs website or here under cobb forum.

 

You'll enjoy a custom tune anyway, and you're car will be happier as well!

 

stage 3 map with ets intake calibration.

I know how to do the calibration.

if i use that map, what should i mon.

afr/knock/boost?

 

The fact that you have a 3port alone merits stage 3. YOU WILL OVER BOOST on any other stage.
Reasoning for this is that stage 1 and 2 are meant for stock OEM boost controller unit which sets wgdc to 100% .Which means you will way over boost on aftermarket boost controller.

Got it?

 

The gauges I monitor CONSTANTLY are
1) Boost
2) Knock
3) LOAD
4) Intake Air Temp
5) WGDC Fine or STFT
6) LTFT or RPM

And always watch knock. Knock is a great way to see if any parameters are off or fueling issues.

 

Use the intake spreadsheet Cobb provides and copy intake data over to map and just monitor LTFT/STFT, they should be between 0-8%.

Log and look at knock on 3rd or 4th WOT pulls starting from 2500rpm.

 

if i didnt install the 3port yet. stage 1 map should be fine?

 

So the only thing needed to be updated is the intake values, regardless of other mods (excluding 3-port)?
