don't think you can do that, can only set it so it would kick in at 1000 rpm idle is at 930

Can't you set something like a Service Interval? The problem with many Closed Loop systems is that @ Idle the gas speed is low and the CL Intergral might have changed Fuel but hasn't measured the change back through the O2 sensor when it goes through the next change.

On my ECU I have 3D mapping over Service Intervals for the Closed Loop feedback. I make a large Inj. ms change manually and check from the LOG how many ms. it takes for the O2 to measure that change. This is the time I used for Service Intervals at IDLE. As higher the revs go the lower Service Interval time can be due to higher gas speed.

It might be compounded by having the o2 post turbo. Are you running off the wideband only?

ViPec (and all other standalones that I know of) can't/won't operate and read the Subaru factory front O2 sensor. One could theoretically move the wideband pre-turbo and use an EGBP compensation. I'm sure the OEM's have equipment to do this but the only one I've seen at the consumer level is the newer AEM 4-band UEGO controller that has an optional EGBP sensor and compensation kit.

Yes i understand. It's only because most standalones don't have provisions for the heater as its a waste of a pinout. When I asked about running off the wideband I was asking if he was running closed loop all the time or the same setting all the time. Sorry.. was a fast post from my phone.

I know that for my ecu there's an rpm dependent gain for closed loop. I'd assume the vipec would have a similar setting.

Yeah a front o2 would make tuning tip in a bit and decel a lot faster and more accurate too.

Default Boost control

Hi Guys,
Sorry to thread jump here, I'm running an EFR 8374 with the .92 IWG on my 3.0ltr R32 GT-R and having similar problems to what Anton has with the standard BW hard canister Wastegate, I can only get to 20psi boost due to high back pressure (still a little unsure how this is so, I have a straight through 3.5" custom exhaust....?)
When we tried winding more preload on the factory hard WG spring, we ended up with boost spikes, and could only get to 20psi with the BC at 100% load.

Thread to my car is here if you want to read up on it

http://www.gtr.co.uk/forum/154737-su...en-now-24.html

I have tried to purchase a Perrin WG, but they are not making them yet, I have bought a Forge dual port WG off Full-Race and have a Mac 4 port BC to see if it will fix the problem.

Question for Anton, I've read through the whole thread on here and Your build thread, and saw that had problems with the Forge WG leaking, but then before you put the Mac 4 port on you were having similar problems with the Perrin unit dropping boost......due to being unable to get a Perrin WG, do you think with the Mac 4 port and the Forge with the Red Spring I might be able to run the same dual boost setting numbers you are?
Thanks for your time.
Chris

Chris problem with forge is the spring side chamber doesn't seal, i bought this crap for 160 bucks and it seats on shelf collecting dust, send it back and get your money back.

With 4 port and perrin unit i was able to keep the boost in flat line to redline, and any desirable boost level. It takes some time fine tuning it because its very sensitive on the WG duty cycles.

With Forge and Red spting preloaded all the way i was able to hit 25 psi but it would drop to 18 at red line

Jeff at Perrin said they will release the actuators when they get done making parts for BRZ,

Cheers, yeah from what I've read I have my doubts with it, problem is there is nothing else available at the moment, and I'm not even sure I would be able to get the Perrin unit to fit in the space I have.
I take it the Forge is leaking around the shaft?
I see that Turbo Smart have built one, but not sure if it's dual port....

Looks like I will have to wait for Perrin to release them.

Come on Perrin.....can you just knock up another one for me?! Haha.

Looks like I might have to have a crack at modifying the Forge to seal a bit better.
How does the Perrin unit seal on the spring section that the forge doesn't?

hahah i tried that, i put a clamp on the rubber nipple between shaft and that **** just inflated like a balloon

design of it is very bad, i could come up with better design by just by slamming my dick against keyboard.

Default IAT how?

i cant figure out the IAT fuel trim system, when i drive in and park car seats for a bit IAT temps raise and AFR slowly goes lean 15.1 because IAT map removes -2 fuel. Should the IAT map be adding fuel instead?

Two systems fight with each other, IAT remove fuel, close loop adds fuel to get to target AFR which is 14.4

Where is your IAT sensor located?

So CLL isn't correcting enough to get back to target? What is the Lambda fuel trim at that time? Is it just hunting between target and 15.1 or just drifting up and settling at 15.1?

I would turn of CLL, tweak your IAT fuel comps to give you the desired stable AFR, reactivate CLL. Log, repeat.

If you are using the default values for IAT correction it says in the notes that the correction may be more than needed and require a tweak.

Theoretically you should be able to calculate the needed trim based on IAT by calculating the resulting variance in air density. I always thought IAT should be worked into a true speed density calculation. But in practice it doesn't seem that simple or consistent.

Ultimately you would want your IAT sensor as close as possible to the Intake valves. EG.. In a runner very close to the TGVs.

When you have it in the IC pipe with the throttle closed the small amount of air going into the Intake manifold is still going to be heated up A LOT due to slow movement and a hot engine. This results in inaccurate measurements when idling for a while with a closed throttle as you mentioned.

Cheers,

Jasper.

Almost by definition, an SD calculation has to use IAT (charge temp). PV = nRT. Nothing theoretical about it.

Do note, however, that most standalones aren't using a true SD or VE style fueling calculation, which calculates air mass available then fuel mass needed then injector on time. It's a more simple injector on time system, but still requires an air temp. compensation.

I suspect fuel temp is the one that is really affecting your afr. When you sit, fuel temp rises because sure isn't moving across your tank.
As air temp goes up, you should use less fuel because the air is less dense. Without iat comp you should run richer. Warm air also aids atomization which would compound the effect.

Now it's possible that it is pulling too much, but there are always other factors.

Interesting **** i guess i cant do anything about it.

dom i also have removed quiet a bit of fuel at 3500 rpm at cruising load, now im thinking thats cam overlap area and the AFR reading i get is incorrect?

Picture of the dip, at the dip i get 14.2 afr
also when i slowly increas RMP over the dip it feels like engine having hard time going past it.

fuel map

maybe smooth out AVCS bump it at low load cells so when it kicks in it doesnt affect AFR that much?
