Optik's Log

[optiklenz13]

So, I installed the Autotech internals yesterday, flashed OTS stage1 91 map. Did a pull on the highway to check how the HPFP internals are doing. Fuel pressure looks good and holding up. Car is bone stock (have yet to install the SRI/TIH and RMM from JBR), fourth gear pull, traction control off. Log looks clean to me, anything worth looking for?

Also tried to map the log on VD but keep getting a database exception error whenever I try to select a car profile from the custom I made. Wanted to know baseline before I move on to other mods. I know VD is not that accurate but it'll do for now. Anyone want to map it? Thanks.

I used the 2011 MS3 profile and guessitmated your weight at 150 lbs.

VD is pretty damn accurate.

the AFRs are pretty damn lean for an OTS map

[rzapata]

Nice numbers Ash! :thumbsup

Although, kinda weird with VD isn't it? Shouldn't we be seeing around 240HP and comparable torque? That looks like stage 2 territory somehow...

Thanks, I'd take the 150 as my weight (I'm actually 170). :chuckle I can't seem to fix the VD that I've downloaded, no cars defined on the drop down menu, unless you still have to do that manually.

Thanks, Riz.. It is weird. LOL!! I'll take those numbers though. Hahaha..

Filled up with 94 and flashed stage1 94 OTS map last night. Drove around for a couple of kilometres last night. Looking good so far.

Can't wait to get the majority of my bolt ons done then off to get protuned. :)

[optiklenz13]

OTS map Stage 1 94.. Still stock with Autotechs..

Did a third gear random pull today, probably not a proper log as I didn't get a nice traction and it was short which most likely explains the boost spike..

Just not sure about the AFR's that I see..

Let's see....
A full pull would be nice.
Do a MAF calibration yet? That should help your AFR's. OTS maps are a bit rich too but not that rich.
Fuel pressure is fine, you could slightly bump targeted pressure since you have internals and stage 1 maps run stock fuel pressures roughly.
Boost is fine, knock is fine.
Weird bit of timing, that bunch of -3, check the tables to see what it's targeting, I found some oddball values in the OTS maps but more likely traction control? Was it off?

[optiklenz13]

No, haven't done a MAF calibration yet, I'll probably be doing it once I install my SRI/TIH..

Will see if I can play with it on ATR. I just didn't want to blow things out. LOL!! (still learning)

Hmmm, I'm pretty sure I had traction control off.. I did another pull just to be sure. I'll check ATR tomorrow to see what the targets are as I don't have ATR on my laptop right now.

Here's the new log, third gear again..

Ash. 4th gear logs is what you need to do. Install the stuff you have and get vince to tune you.

[optiklenz13]

In time, Derek.. In time. :)

I figured third gear log will do with stage 1.. will install stuff on the weekend.. then do a MAF cal..

Oh my head hurts, haven't done squat at work than read about stuff. LOL...

Be careful bro. Pm me if you need secret area in Mexico. ;)

New log with the JBR intake and TIP and flashed the S-OTS map.

Looks good. LTFT in the 11s though at the start of the log.

[optiklenz13]

Thanks..

See that's what I'm trying to understand. There's no mention as to what the acceptable values are for LTFT at half throttle. Technically, I'm not even at WOT yet when they show at 11's. I'm just going by the below document.

Ignore my post above, after talking to some of the folks and of course, Vince as always for the assistance, I now have an understanding of how it works. My fuel trims are now much more settled.

Also find it odd that with the S-OTS maps that were supposedly made for the combo doesn't really like my car. My trims were to the roof with the S-OTS maps, it was at +17.xx at part throttle and would hover at +12.xx to +14.xx at idle. Triple checked clamps, etc to ensure I have no leak post MAF.

So I did a random pull today. I'm still on the fence if I want to keep the JBR SRI/TIH just because I really think the clamps are too convoluted.

So I decided to back - off and flashed the Cobb Map instead. Will definitely do a MAF CAL once the weather is settled.

Hopefully, I can get at least my DP in and get to the tuning process earlier rather than later.

Stage 1 OTS 93 map. Looks like an over boost from cells D15 - D23. The boost targets are 16.5 psi on ATR.

The car runs awesome coupled with the PSS tires that I'm running that are 245/40/17. It keeps you pinned to the ground.

The car is now sitting at 9000 kms. Other than that, I'm just enjoying the car as it is and how slow it is compared to the other big boys here. :P

.. and just because I won't be going for appearance looks with this car, it probably won't see a lot of camera time. LOL..

This is how she currently sits.

Looks good assuming your LTFT are within +/- 10

Try and log from 2500 right to redline in 4th gear on a completely flat smooth road for best accuracy.

Looks good. You have tons of room for more power.

and bigger wheels than 15's

[optiklenz13]

LOL loki..

I should have all my parts that I accumulated installed this Friday.. and then off to Mspeed to extract that powa..

Are step colder plugs mandatory? Fobio

Your stock plugs are likely still fine. In the earlier days when OTS maps were of sub-par quality and guys were running way rich with wonky AFR's, plugs tend to foul more easily. Gen1 also had other inherent design issues that did not always promote the cleanest burn and Gen2 piston designs *MAY* improve plug longevity.

Eventho I have worked with many cars tuning wise, we do not have a conclusive or exhaustive R&D effort that says one-way or another since driving habits and conditions may also play a big role.

One bit of recent experience. MBNTO have ran his stock plugs for close to if not over 100K km and they were fine. We have had a Gen2 swap to 1-step colder and loss 10whp when we weren't using it to handle more boost.

For you specifically, and at the mileage you're, you likely won't need new plugs.

In for compression results. :)

It's a newer car and all, but not a bad idea when we do a baseline. Then you can check on it once a yr afterwards to see if it stays healthy over time.

[optiklenz13]

Full TBE installed. Got P0137 and P0140 codes..

[SomeGuy]

Check your o2 sensors

Told you not to fack around anymore with the speed. :)

[optiklenz13]

Update. Secondary O2 sensor seemed to have popped off or it wasn't tightened properly.

All good now. ;)

It was too embarrassed to be seen on your car with those tiny ass wheels

Tried to ditch
