Almost got rear ended!
Almost got rear ended!
Hey Guys,
So i'm turning right onto a local road, In 2nd gear (MR) and I see that there is plenty of space between myself and the car coming towards me. I press the accelerator down and no dice. I floor it completely and I just sit there. Dead in the water. After about 2 (seem's like an eternity) seconds just before the car is about to hit me I take off like a bat out of hell. And no, I don't merge like a crazy maniac, but turning the corner and not moving closes the gap between you and the oncoming traffic really fast.
I can see why the person behind me didn't slow down much, I merged onto the road and I SHOULD have been moving, and didn't have my break lights on... Needless to say that kinda scared me this morning.
Am I the only one having these strange little issues...?
I'm really thinking I should have bought a GSR now. Atleast in that I don't have to worry about the transmission deciding if it should allow me to move or not.
Either that or its this Cobb 1.07 Map....
I was sent the 1.07 Map from the Cobb Calibration Team. Now I have idle issues AND acceleration issues?

2 seconds seems like a long time to stall, but I have had this happen to me a couple of times when making a left in front of traffic when I first got my MR. Scary as HELL
. I learned to feather the throttle right away so that won't happen. I'm still waiting on someone to do something about this within the programming of the TCU.

Yup, the MR is known for this. I had the same thing happen to me a few times, but not in the situation where someone was going to hit me. You could push the gas pedal about half way until it starts to go and then floor it. I believe a aftermarket throttle controller like the blitz one will take care of this issue, if I am correct.
You could see the delay in this video( about 2:25sec into it):

i really need todo a write up of what we have discovered so far...
but basically there are:
* torque request tables (which use the Accel Pedal/RPM as the inputs, and spit out a torque request number)
* throttle maps (which use the Torque Request/RPM as inputs and spit out a TPS openning angle)
* WGDC correction torque request subtractor - so if your actual WGDC doesn't follow the Map WGDC then the torque request is lowered - this was what was causing that TPS dip for that 3port problem
* SST mode torque request multiplier - this uses gear/speed as inputs and basically multiplies the torque request output by a factor - depending what SST mode your in..
then there are SST torque tables which seem to control shift attributes.
we havn't worked it out fully yet, but im sure we will get there eventually

tephra maybe in a near future we will see an 800whp mr....congrats on the work done by you guys!
to the poster of this problem...this is normal in the mr you need to play with your gas pedal..
