"That felt gooood, nice and hard"

That was ...........

 

Damn that revs like a sonsofa*****!

 

Real Classic guys. "Hold the camera steady" OK Mr. Ron Jeremy you are not dipping in to a vagina here LOL. "That felt good, nice and hard" now that's what I'm talking about fellas. Hey, cut it out with cursing me on the video, I heard that F....kin Art, WTF???? Nice run guys, Tweetie has awaken again, it's funny she likes to fly at night.

 

Art, it looks like Mike is gunning for you. Sid is also behind it. Or from the video, on top of it.

 

I Knew you guys would like the humor we put in that video!!

 

These two are called the Night....Riders....looking for some action that can only be found on Sunset

 

guys, play the video, but ONLY listen... ...

 

 

OK the dialogue kind of sounds X-rated but the night time videos are cool. When does the next one start ?

 

My guess is that the Night....Riders....got tired of night hunting. They're probably out trying to score in broad day light

 

They're starting one of those $20/mo. websites. A new episode every week.

 

I heard that another episode should be on the way. The **** stars are working round the clock on this one Director is missing in action as of right now. Stay tuned!!

 

Thanks everyone for all the support throughout the process thus far. We’re also glad we can have funny moments along the way. So we wanted to share what was going on here and why we’ve been so committed on doing all these runs and getting them sent to Todd to analyze and recalibrate. Throughout these runs there’s a few things being sorted out that makes Todd’s job especially valuable: The bigger IPD y-pipe, pump+methanol, bigger injectors, and the turbonetics setup. So with TurboMike’s car, Todd’s been making radical changes on the tune.

File 1: This was the initial base tune where it all started. Todd’s first impression was that the lambda correction was good, but the MAF calibration was different where the MAF was reading lean on the low end, by about 15-20%, and fat on the top end, by about 15-20%. So the 470-ohm resistor went back in. The resistor wasn’t put in from the start because he wanted to verify some initial idle and run data readings due to the bigger IPD y-pipe. In this case, volts were maxing out, and remember we’re still just at 0.9-bar and haven’t even begun to start cranking up the boost. In between these file downloads he also reminded us to disconnect the battery for at least 20min. Per Todd “…With Mike’s car, we’re making radical changes, not just little stuff. So, the adaption is all over right now. With the adaption, it’ll only adapt a few percent long term each drive cycle. So, you have to do multiple drive cycles to get full adaption, and that requires a 10 minute drive, 10 minute shut down, to complete each cycle. Easier just to disconnect the battery…”

File 2: So based on the information gathered from File 1, Todd modified the MAF curve to get it closer again for the short terms and long terms and he also moved the timing around. Mike communicated with Todd on what the car was doing throughout the rpm range. He felt that around 4000rpm, it needed some work and Todd verified that the data showed timing was being pulled back between 3500-5250. Basically, the knock sensors were being triggered. So a couple things followed, Todd took away some timing in this range and Mike adjusted his methanol volume up. Although MAF was reading good ~3.7V at max load and ~0.45V at idle, he made a slight adjustment to help smooth out the idle. As far as AFR’s they were good and tightened up. They weren’t as erratic compared to File 1. At max load we were reading 12.2, 11.9, 11.8, 12.0.

File 3: Things continued to get better and the car was responding real well (daytime video). We did some pulls in 3rd and a few from 1st-3rd. But Mike still felt that it still needed something around 4000. So we pulled over and exported the data to take a quick look at the last 2 pulls. Todd and Mike agreed that a couple more degrees needed to be taken away in this range. In addition, the methanol MAP sensor is set to trigger at 11psi (0.76bar), Mike is going to lower this to 6psi (0.41bar) mainly because there’s a period of delay from the MAP reading, methanol trigger, and when the methanol actually reaches its destination. Now this poses another situation Todd brought up. The 02’s are going to read this additional methanol and try to pull back fuel, so in order to account for this, Todd’s fattened up the fuel a bit to compensate.

File 4:Given everything going on, before we even got back from our pulls, Todd got the next file sent over. That was awesome. So we uploaded it. But, it was getting late in the day and Mike had to get back before rush hour, and still needed to lower the trigger his methanol MAP sensor. So he got it all done earlier this morning, verified all was working well with the methanol system and triggering right where he wanted it. Finally, he got in and did more pulls. The VERDICT: It’s alive throughout the rpm range now and there’s nothing missing between 3500-5500rpm any longer. Per my conversation with Mike this morning,“…feels excellent, strong, feels way stronger than before…”

He left a message with Todd and thanked him dearly. We’ll get the next datalogs to confirm but Mike’s very confident all is fine. Now that things are safely sorted @0.9bar, next step will be cranking it up. Again, TurboMike wants to send his thanks to all you guys who have shown a lot of interest in the project! We’ll make sure to let you know what happens next!

 

That was a great episode again, a very nice "HARD" pull. But man, those shoes gotta go LOL. Seems like Mike was vacationing in Bahamas and decided to do some pulls anyway. Great post Sid!!!

 

Very nice videos and very informative thread. Great job Sid!! Those shoes though, I have to give it to him. Don't put on the racing ones, you will spank us every time
