That is a ton of timing up top. Mitsu still loves to run the car rich as hell with a lot of timing up top. This is so old school :crap:
BTW, Bryan what software are you using to log the Evo X? Remember this is a whole new motor with different tuning strategies than the 4G63. If you try to tune it like you know a 4G63 should be tuned you won't make any power. ;) They take a bit more timing then our beloved 4G63s. Using PCMscan for logging for now. |

I am glad you confirmed this. For those who want to wait for ECUflash to get tuned it seems to be a good idea to get a TBE and an AEM intake to get started. That would lean out the car and give it more power.

It's actually not too bad up top for a stock car that drops to 13psi or so.

What parameters can you log with PCMscan? |

The AEM intake has a larger Maf housing so it screws with the MAF a bit and the car actually sees lower loads than with the stock Maf housing, one of the big reasons the intake leans the car out so much.

Last I heard PCMscan didn't log knock on the X though.... :confused:

Good to know{thumbup} So the car runs leaner, but it runs more timing than stock due to lower load. Is that causing knock on untuned cars?

Yup and yes I have seen knock on untuned cars with mods, even 100% stock 10's, the usual. ;) |

Looking at them i am somewhat confused (godilovecablethrottles). what is the z axis? is it % of what you give the pedal. So if the map is 60% does that mean it will open the throttle by 60% of what the pedal is at? I know the STi will give greater throttle then what the pedal is at which feels a tad weird. So at part throttle it might give 10% more to make the car feel "peppier". Do you know if you can go over 100% in those cells?

P1235 is from hitting the airflow/torque limiters. You will be able to adjust that with the necessary tables.

Razorlab What a/f mixture are you targeting with the X? I think I recall seeing vivid racing running a little leaner than usual when they first started tuning the X.

You truely do not need something that can log knock. If you follow the timing charts and then you see it jump down closer to the lower timing table.... you know it knocked. That is how mitsu has always did their knock acknowledgment by dropping timing.

Well, yes. Of course, it is better to see exactly how much knock there is. I was just saying that by the use of interpolation you can SEE in the timing curve if it knocked or not and it is very possible to tune that way. And since evoscan isn't out yet and if you don't have access to the ecutek or cobb loggers you have no other way.

once upon a time I had no choice but to tune by watching the timing and NB02 good times :) this brings back memories
