TecII Installed. Trouble starting Car

Revision · 04-21-2002, 09:33 PM

Tec has been installed, but had to set ignition advance to 19 and change the injector offset by adding +.500 to the base map to get the car started. But if I touch the accelerator the car stalls.

Can anyone forward me a MY99 map that I can compare the ignition table and the injector tables?

I'm double posting here and in the Vishnu forum cause this site get more traffic and I need to get the car into some semblance of running tonight.

Thanks.

Can start and run the car near the base enrichment guidlines for now.. But the car still stalls out once the 20 second gamma enrichment ends. Hmm..

I can't believe that the baseline map is so far off..

Aw heck. Here is a link to the install pics.

Good Luck Revision! I can't believe the baseline map is so far off.

I got my TEC-2 this weekend but haven't had a chance to install it yet. Those are some nice pictures you took and gives me an idea as to how things should look.

I see you have the TEC-2 from Vishnu and the intake from Rallispec. Where is your turbo going to be from?

Still finalizing some parts.
For sure to be powered by a VF23.
Completion ETA Mid-May.

Revision · 04-22-2002, 09:08 PM

Found the culprit!

Graham · 04-22-2002, 09:25 PM

How long did it take to put the TEC-II in? Are there lots of wires that have to be cut and what not, or are there connectors that come with it?

andrew...if ya NEED a car to get around in this week yell at me. I am working downtown from 4am to 6pm

so if ya need the ghetto coon tell me. (it will be getting an oil change, tranny fluid change and widows locktighted tomarrow(final subaru check up untill...ya know

)

I'd love to borrow your car. In exchange, I'll change out the oil, tranny fluid and filter, and coolant.. Well maybe not the tranny fluid and filter..

BTW, I put around 50-75 miles on my car a day.

I'll have to put real tires on it while I have it too.. The only set I have not in use right now is a set of Dunlops on MY99 RS rims.

he's got Sumitomo HTR-z's on it...they are noisy but rather sticky

mastervic27 · 04-23-2002, 06:25 PM

If you go with the Vishnu Tec-2 there is only 1 factory wire to cut and that is optional. Check out the installation guide at Vishnu.

mastervic27 · 04-23-2002, 06:31 PM

Which cable/connector is that?

8Complex · 04-23-2002, 07:39 PM

That actually -was- the Vishnu kit. Was the first I saw of one, and you can tell the wiring was sent to the lowest bidder for fabrication.

That was the MAF sensor plug.

Revision · 04-23-2002, 11:38 PM

I didn't "cut" any stock wires.
I did splice into the TPS and the ignition power.
Cutting the wire going to the pollution control system, ie the CEL is considered a Federal crime. -> No thank you.

Bringing a post from the dead, but is it really a Fed Crime to splice the CEL wire on the ecu harness?

So what can you do to get a check engine light to display a problem with the TEC-II sensors besides getting another light?

Dan_E · 04-07-2003, 10:31 PM

yea cept for the TPS splice, you gotta cut a coolant line to put in the clt temp sensor. everything else is "bolt on" so to speak.

Revision · 04-07-2003, 11:46 PM

wow, talk about bringing a post back from the dead.

Yer not suppose to mess with the emissions stuff. And that includes the cat. The MIL is part of the emissions equipment.

Sides, if you are running a Tec system in parallel with the stock ECU you want the MIL to tell you if there are problems with the stock system... Course that means you need to get the ECU to void normal issues like positive manifold pressure and timing increase/decreases.

latinskllz · 04-08-2003, 05:22 PM

Thanks!

Cause I am finally going to be installing the tec-ii April 26th, 27th along with the damn wrx turbo waterpump.

I'm wondering if I should connect the CLT sensor to the upper nipple since it's a feed FROM WATER TANK....

I know i can T off the heater hose, but perhaps this new location will be better?

What upper nipple are you talking about?

You want your CLT sensor to be after the block but before the heater core - it'll give you the hottest (and correct) temp in the system.

Thanks Austin, so I guess i'll just stick with the tec-ii installation location of the CLT, splitting the heater hose.

It's just that I was reading on the JC Turbo Install instructions and that's the same hose to supply the coolant to the turbo...so I wasn't sure about T'ing the CLT sensor and then the coolant line all from one source even though it's pass through

Revision · 04-10-2003, 08:47 AM

I did the same thing. Don't worry about it. You do have to shorten that hose a little bit to get all that stuff to fit inline.

If you ever want to go back to stock in the future, you'd have to buy a adapter and a length of coolant hose and that is it.

So you T'd the CLT and the coolant feed in the same location?

Damn man, the closer the date comes the more nervous I get

I've had the tec-ii for a year and a half now sitting next to my bed only being admired at from time to time.

I doubt I will ever go back to stock. Turbo RS-T is so much fun to drive.

I am getting the clutch replaced too the same weekend lol.....we'll see.
