Dyney

Have you still got the modified hard water pipe ?

No Sold it, sorry

 

seriously tempted by the 2.5

need to enquire about traders insurance through work.

 

Dyney,
i have fitted my link with the 550cc injectors and tuned it with a laptop to the point were it is very smooth to drive with no knock and has a perfect idle and cold start.

i would like to know what your master is set at and your first few fuel zones as my master needed to be very high ( 108 ) just to get it to run on the factory map. the funny thing is is that it only needed a master or 94 for it to run on the 440's witch seems backwards to my? the first few fuel zones on mine are around 102-103.
fuel pressure at idle is 2.9bar with vac line on and 3.6bar with it off. r33gtr fuel pump

for anyone how dosn't know this is for a ver3 sti with a ej257 swap and a 6row link.

if you don't have this information then thats fine. i would just like some coments from somone on why 550's would need a higher master than 440's.

 

Different injector lag time ? Not sure if the Link has an adjustable compensation for this ?

 

no it doesnt Andy. which is why no one seems to have / worry about lag times

not sure what Iains master is set at, as we couldnt get the laptop connected now the things got the right chip in so there is something wrong there.

i've seen Link maps for similar cars where the settings are almost at opposites. i.e. low master, high cell values , and , high master and low cell values.

not sure which is the better way round, but susspect both work, but 1 (or neither) are smoother / more gradual.

 

there is a lag compensation in the Link

 

phone/email Bob Rawle?

 

wakeup pulse ?

 

I could modify a pipe if required.. if pipe was supplied with a permanent marker, mark where required.

 

If this was a reference to my request for the hard water pipe, then cheers David and I may well be in contact in about 2 weeks time when I put the engine together.

Mark A

 

thanks guys.
i didn't think about lag time. they are 550cc rx7 end feed so they arn't that flash but they were free. i just did a flow test on one and got 570cc/min but this was at 3.5bar as the engine wasn't running.

 

megrac,
Sorry wasn't about yesterday.
Some figures for you from my running in map

Fuel pressure is 3bar with the vac line on. Inj's are 550 Denso's from an RX7

0, Clamp =28
1, Master =39

10, Idle =21

Fuel Zone:
100 =41
105 =41
110 =41
115 =40
120 =42

200 =42
205 =39
210 =39
215 =35
220 =35

 

I was taken for a spin in Dyney's car and I have to say you really do notice that low down torque!! Very impressed!!

 

thanks dyney. yours is set up way differant from mine. then again i am a total beginer.

 

Iain, those map figures look very strange.

I would have expected the MASTER fuel to be around 80-90 and low load fuel zones in the range 90-110 ?

Andrew...

 

mrt have the factory my97 map for download and dyneys looks the same as that but my factory map was like you say around 95-110 with a master of 84. our links must of been shiped with differant maps.

 

just found this thread

the other week when you was in eb i strugled to stay with you and that was on running in i think [last meet] **** cool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Will double check the figures tomorrow.
Those figure were of the running in map.
I noted them down quite late at night and I still don't really understand what it all means but I'am learning thanks to Pat

 

Buzz I have been off the running in map for a couple of months now

 

the number in your first map look strange because they are from a non pclink compatible chip(the older one) were all the numbers were limited from 1-99.
i've booked mine in to get tuned in two weeks so we will see what happens and i'll share all when its done

 

megrac is right.. old version of the chip, so all the numbers are different to how you see them in PCLink .... now if only that would ****** work !!!

 

I see now, yes they are all approx 99/255ths of what I would expect.

An upgrade to the 'Q' chip is well worth it IMHO, £150 from BRD.

Andrew...

How hard was it to set up the cam timing up, have you do it before ?

 

Piece of P mark, if your unsure, just follow the destructions.

Steven is this manaul downloadable as a whole PDF file?

Looks simple enough

thats all i have as a link, very usefull

 

yep, Iains done that now, although we cant get it to talk to the lappy .. more time needed to 'play'.

unless its the serial link thats naffed......

anyone got a PDA to talk to a LINK yet ? and 'dash' (i.e. gauges) type software out there ?

Steve

 

I asked this about 6/12 and had no reply.
But you're right the display would be very useful with a PDA on the dash

 

steve, Iain's got my old serial link hasnt he? think so.

Was working 100% when i had it, although i used a serial to usb converter cable for my laptop.

I do remember trying to connect my latop to Tims Link and failed miserably, yet it hooked up to mine straight away.

You got the com ports set correctly within windows and within the link software?

You tried connecting to a 10 row link?
