Running 4.2...Car barely moves now...change inj flow?
Hi I just "upgraded" to version 4.2 from 3.1 and the stage4 new map. My car is running horribly now. Like sputtering and a couple pounds of boost until 6000rpm.
I am running OLF and CLB. I haven't changed the injector flow from 420 as I remember reading not to change this if running Sti injectors. Could that be the problem? I thought I'd ask before changing that to 550cc. If so, do I change inj flow AND stock inj flow to 550cc? Thanks, BB

I am running CLB...I thought the Stage04new (from TXS) is CLB?
Is adjusting the injector flow the same as injector scaling?? Sorry for the stupid questions...I've read the manual and quick tune guide and still confused. Thanks, B |

brian, i'm pretty sure you've got to scale the injector flow when running olf and sti,even on the st. 4 map. quick check... what kind of maf adjust values do you see in the fuel map? if not pretty heavy negative, then you are running a scaled map.

Thanks, ok I changed to fuel map to 0 on everything but 0% column, and scaled the injectors to 550 and it's running real nice...but having a weird major hesitation WOT at 4000 rpm in low gears (but no cel). And some overboosting. I have a feeling I'm missing the obvious...
My last question is where do I enter the "paramaters" that you can DL from TXS...I understand I have to enter these manually...? Am i missing something? Thanks for any help. |

Aaahhhh. Ok, I feel stupid...I think TXS may have to "dumb down" their manuals for me. I didn't realize they were handled like maps.
Thanks cronic! (A cronic smoking yellow WRX owner. Imagine that! LOL) Cheers, BB |

Ok,
The parameters are now loaded. The car is running really nice, more power down low and no knock (so far!!)...OLF seems to be working well. Boost is bang on 17.5 every time. Still getting power cutting out around 4000rpm so I'll have to figure that out. Cheers, BB |

brian, are you on 4.2c, or just 4.2? the later version fixed a hiccup when idc was ~100, if i understand correctly. it helped smoothen out my power a bit when i reflashed mine.
otherwise when my car has a hesitation it's generally running ridiculously rich, but without a wideband you can't be sure. ken |
