Enginelogic tune 3/27/06

JustA4 · 03-22-2006, 07:24 PM

Got the appointment. PDX is sending me another flashed Ecutek ECU to cure the stumbling idle issue this Friday, then off to E.L. Monday 0800. I'll post my results when finished. Will be getting a 93 & 110 map for the UTEC.

Previous E.L. dyno pull netted 277hp & 281ft/lbs. That was with the Mail-in PDX Ecutek stage 2 flash, APS 3" TBE w/cat and 65mm APS CAI. The CAI was added after the PDX tune, but PDX stated that it would work fine due to being 65mm and not the 70mm version.

Have since added:
Perrin GT30r .63 kit (Big Maf,Uppipe,Downpipe,Tial44mm)
Perrin FMIC
Perrin Fuel Rails
NGK Iridium +1 colder
PE 850cc injectors
DTEC Pro EBC
E.L Tumbler delete port/polish (gained 150cfm!)
PDX Ecutek custom Mail-order flash
UTEC

Doesn't seem your setup is far off of mine. Maybe they'll have something to go on after they finish mine.

FYI:
My car has been in my posession so that I could make a new intake. I now have it and will be going back to EL.

JustA4 · 03-22-2006, 09:05 PM

Are you running the blow-through-MAF?

My car has a blow thru on it, but we are going to plug that hole and put the MAF back before the turbo to see how things go. There were some strange goings on. Chris believes the MAF setup is the issue. I think it's my UTEC. So first we are going to see if going with a draw thru will solve the issues. If it doesn't, the next thing to do is search for someone with a UTEC that is willing to let me swap it in, load the MAP for my car, and give it a dyno run. If that solves the issues, then I'll be talking to TXS to see if they can fix my UTEC.

BE@ST · 03-22-2006, 09:40 PM

Big_Hitter · 03-22-2006, 09:43 PM

Whoops..

Fixed

DanzBorin · 03-23-2006, 09:09 AM

actually, not fixed...

I can, however, fix it for ya...

JustA4 · 03-30-2006, 06:45 PM

Picked up the car today. Was ready earlier, but have been very busy with out of town guests. WOW - I love it. Props to EL Chris and Brad for making sure I was thrilled with the final tune. EL will be sending me the Dyno graphs and when they do, I'll post them up. We made 355 on pump and 377 on Race fuel. My wastegate spring is too weak to hold the boost I was after, so the #s could have been higher. Down the road I'll replace the spring with a stiffer one. Just making a small post, headed out for some more driving! Will give more details at a later time. Thank you Enginelogic.

Butterz · 03-30-2006, 06:47 PM

wow. those are pretty darn impressive numbers on that dyno. congrats and have fun!...but be safe.

JustA4 · 03-31-2006, 01:54 PM

Pulls REALLY hard. I make sure I'm pointed the way I wanna go before mashing the throttle. :-)

BE@ST · 03-31-2006, 01:58 PM

I wana ride.. seeing as how im headed that direction really soon I would like to know if this is what im really in for.

if not im going to have to go with ALCH/METH injestino to get more out of it.

I hate you!!
Okay, maybe I'm just jealous

I haven't seen the graphs, but I know my car made less power (about 20 less). The car has issues. It won't take the timing that other STis can. Plus it's making 1 psi less. Oh well, it will have to due. I haven't had a chance to pick the car up yet, but I'm eager to do so, so I can stop driving my beater all the time.....which isn't too bad considering the price of gas.

Did you end up going back w/ a draw-through MAF or is it still a blow-thru? Does EL have a theory on why your car in particular does not like the timing?
Glad to hear you got things sorted out.
