And how many of them have cold start issues?

 

I was running stock coils until #1 cylinder started arcing at the top of the plug and would miss pretty bad.... SpoolinUp was a cheap fix for it

 

But if you went coils from the start you would have never had that issue in the first place yes?

 

fun fun at formula d

 

Cold start up has nothing to do with your coils. If someone's having cold start issues with e85 they need to have their tune looked at.

 

has nothing to do with coils. its all in the tune

thats a bad coil. Could have been a stock car and had that happen

always a good time sideways

 

Thomas you got me. lol

BTW my car started this morning on the 2nd revolution. probably as good as pump gas and I am on E85 and big injectors...

 

Hmm well I guess I know who will never lay hands on my car then.lol

 

Who? Alan, Curtis, and myself have dougs tunes and they start great on E85

 

So during winter, all of your guy's cars start up 1st time every time? I know someone else running his tune and his did not. But coils seemed to help for some reason. Iono

 

Mine takes a few revolutions when its mad cold, but generally its good. However, with the 35r turbo I was blowing coils pretty bad (went through 3 in a week.. it pretty much took only one or two pulls and it would blow), regardless. I got the NonCDI and it's been great ever since..

 

Thats all I'm sayin. I want my car to start up 1st time every time. With 100 I've never once had that problem.

My date:Problem?
Me: Hang on

*Crank crank crank crank crank*
Me: Crap. Damn this cold weather!

*Crank crank crank crank START!

....yea no thanks.lol

I understand things arn't perfect when you guys run these bigger builds,but I enjoy the luxuries of my street car and I don't really wanna give anything like easy start ups, up.

 

damn, matt...you sure do come up with a lot of counter arguments and excuses lol

 

Ha

Oh, heres another excuse..

My car may be sitting 2-3 weeks at a time. How will that E85 do then?

Lol forget it. I shouldn't have brought it up in the first place. Feels like a Suby guy trying to justify trading in for an Evo on a flat 4 forum.haha

 

Matt, cold start issues are only found on cars with larger injectors and e85. It has nothing to do with the ignition on stock ECU. A small change in starting IPW solves it forever. I run 2150cc injectors and my car fires on the second crank, like clockwork. As for sitting for a while, my car sat for almost 4 months when I broke my leg. I had to replace my Odyssey battery, but the car fired right up after the pump primed the rail.
