Thanks JD, but fuck that. I just ordered a Ostrich 2. Don't feel to pay 300$ because I don't make a lot of money right now.

Uh, they sell Willem burners in the $40-60 range, ass nugget.

In fact, the 300$ was related to the burner + Ostrich or Demon cause I'll need a working Ostrich anyway for eCtune.

Bleh, I bought one programmer. Anyway, it's always useful.

[Joseph Davis]

Francis.... FUCK YEAH!!

Will receive it Friday. I hope it will help. I want to go at least one time to the track before it's too cold. It's barely 70F these days... At least there's no snow

Lucky mofo, its in the 90s here still

Just got the programmer and it looks good so far. I used a map I already had on my last setup and I got no solid cel and car started "fine", but didn't last long (450cc vs 240cc)

I'll burn a stock map to see if everything is fine check with the 780cc after that. Ripper vid comming soon

[Teg2boo]

So far so good, the map is working. I've put a cutoff at 4000rpm and it cuts off pretty well .

[Teg2boo]

On my last setup I had a catchcan hooked up on the PCV which had no interior (free flow). It was working well, but now if I unhook the PCV that is connected to the intake manifold vacuum nipple, the motor want to die. I'm blocking the nipple when I do that so there's no vacuum leak.

I don't want it to be plugged cause of boost, obviously

ninja edit: What's up with that?

[ratcityrex]

So jump your jumper, un plug you pcv valve, unplug you iacv and set your idle to what you want it to be and then call it a day. A pcv will not work so good on your boosted setup.

Yeah, I know it won't work well. I don't think that boost in crankcase is a good idea

What I was wondering is why unplug the pcv valve affect how the engine is running. I didn't know that the pressure in the crankcase was affecting how the motor run at idle that much. Tunning with chip only is kinda long process tho, can't wait to get the Ostrich 2.0

The chip programmer works perfectly, I was happily surprised how easy it was to put a bin on a chip. Just need to deal with the offset and it's far to be a big deal.

[Teg2boo]

The basetune is ok at best. I'm not sure if my wideband read correctly. I've seen 16 afr at cruise and 10-9afr in boost.

Holy shit it feels good to have boosted car again!!!   ;D The car is running only 8/15psi (wastegate) because of the leaks, but still, it's pulling very strong! The turbo spool faster too.

Chips are good for basemap, but without dataloggin and RTP, it's hard to tune...

Idle isn't very good tho, I can't find the good settings to idle correctly. We'll see next week with my good friend Ostrich if I can do better.

You've already beaten first start and never, here are the others:

2 weeks           -4 (2.9%)
1 month         -7 (5%)
6 months         -2 (1.4%)
1 year         -4 (2.9%)

Based on that statistical distribution, it looks like you have to exceed the one month mark to get any respect around here.  DO WORK.

Yeah, 2 weeks is done, but not boosted. I really want to tune it with eCtune, I'm lost in Crome. It's so hard to start the car that thought my bin was fucked. I tried to create a new map for almost 2 hours to finally retry the first map and see that idle and startup fucking sucks. I only had to press a bit on the gas to let it warm up and be steady at ~400rpm...

I also need to recalibrate my wideband, I don't thrust the value it gives me.

[Teg2boo]

Small update. I got my Ostrich 2 and it works fine. Feels great at 7psi. Now, I need to fix the boost leaks and turn up the boost 

I need to install the 3bar map sensor before tho...

I think it has good potential. Got 5psi before 4000rpm which I'm surprised cause with the old setup I never seen 1psi before 4k an 10psi by 5k.

The motor has 400km now and no problem so far.

[Joseph Davis]

Good ring seal aka fresh motor usually only helps a small amount with spool, but a large amount with power per psi.  If you notice that big of a difference in spool - and your cam timing isn't off - it says good things about the power you will make.

[Teg2boo]

Good to know!

I didn't look at the mechanical timing. I set it so it starts and idle without dieing... Actually, I think both cam are off a tooth on the same side. I had to set the distributor position really advanced and noticed the smell (the smell of unburned mix) of a way too retarded timing on the first start.

I'll check this out next weekend, I need to find the damn timing light. For now it runs fine and spark plug looks good so I'm not worried about the timing.
