Elsecar Mega Meet 25th April
VR6Joni replied to macvwnut's topic in Event Announcements & Discussion
I'll be there for sure! -
It did 320bhp with just aquamist and mapped very rich and retarded. With chargecooler, 12.5afr instead of 11afr and more advance I recon I'm now closer to 350bhp, but not had chance to RR it yet. I'm currently running it without the charger as its pointless in this weather (and makes a fair old difference to economy), as soon as the roads get a bit stickier I get it on the RR again with the blower.
-
85mm IS the max pulley size, which WILL give you around 12psi with that supercharger, which means some method of charge cooling is highly recommended. As for de tuning you could go richer than 12.5 afr and retard timing a bit more than required, but why not make use of that fuel I say :grin: With a very conservative map I still think your talking 300bhp+ with a 94 Rotrex.
-
In that case yes. I've used TTS a few time and not had a problem, I noticed they seem to have removed the price from their website, so would be interesting to see what the latest price is for just a Rotrex. I recon they will have gone up a bit :( . Almost to the extent of out pricing a very low boost turbo setup now??????
-
Rotrex on ebay now:http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Rotrex-Supercharger-C30-94-suit-306-gti-205-type-r-/230573360701?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item35af3e463d PS I've not forgot about the drawings, its just I've not been in the office much this year so not had any free time.

Chineese MK2 Jetta Dash. Interesting....

Yeah that does make quite a difference! Especially when the blower is set to greater than 2. -
I'm sick of getting dazzled by HID's, and its always new cars with factory fitted HID's too, I'm sure the self levelling is a load of bollox. Which I why I've held off for so long as they pi$$ me off and didn't want to be part of the dazzeler crew. But I gonna do a U-turn, if every other car can dazzle me, fook em, its time for revenge. So I'm also interested in any recommendations also.
-
Correct, that's the problem, motorist convictions are all too easy to process and are an easily obtainable chunk towards their targets and income. Someone in the police needs some balls/brains to ease the burden of paperwork and shift the trend from meeting targets to solving/PREVENTING crime. If it was prevented in the first place there would be no paperwork!
-
I did wonder who exactly was the victim in this case, other than the guy that tried to be friendly to other drivers and save them a few pennies, who the police have blatantly tried to make an example of. Instead they simply lowered the driving public's opinion of them even lower, this certainly aint gonna stop me warning oncoming drivers! In fact it makes me want to warn even more! If they questioned me, the answer would be, "I thought it was my mate". No doubt they would then waste even more time proving they weren't.
-
Way to get the public on the board CPS! And the Police for pushing that one all the way to court :nono: A stern telling off would have been adequate. Glad to see that's where MY taxes are being spent. And as for the Judge, fookin dumb a$$ for letting this case even waste that amount of count time. Bout this country got some Judges on board with a backbone and some common sense.
-
Looking at this again, it appears that MAP2 on WOT would be the one to change (as it is none sequential firing every rev instead of sequential every 2 revs hence why the values are shorter), but I'm not entirely sure what you would adjust for every other throttle position. Maybe rescaling the "Air Mass Voltage transfer map" would do it! PS. I emailed you the XDF which I've added the checksum in for your reference.
-
Also you must tell me more about the damos file??? I'm more than willing to add my knowledge. It just seems a shame that the VR6 has so many different managements that it makes it so difficult for the average home tuner to keep up!
-
Was gonna ask earlier but are you the guy that did the ABF turbo megasquirt. Good to see you on here if so!
-
Oh and as for the extra maps WinOLS finds it would be nice to know what they are, but for most people I'm sure the ones tuner pro identifies should be more than adequate. So unfortunately unless someone else can identify them we are gonna have to do without.

Hi mate. As for the check sum I think there is 2 different methods. As follows: If you have an ECU with an immobiliser, you cannot change the value at the checksum location or the car will just run for 2 seconds and cut out. What I did was change the values just above the checksum to make it match, originally the unused memory above the checksum are all 02's. As I put bigger injectors in I had reduced allot of the values which meant I only had to add the difference, therefore this only meant changing a few 8bit values. In my immobilised ecu the checksum is at location 0xEF00. The principal of the check sum is that it is simply a 16bit value that is the accumulated total of all the 8bit values before it. PM me your email and I'll send you the XDF that I have modified to calculate the checksum, its for the CP ecu which will be different but the calculation principal will be that same as long as you can locate the checksum and the range it covers. To view the XDF info go to XDF->view/edit XDF header info, click on the "checksum tab" and then click 'Edit Selected' As for the un-immobilised ECU's I've couldn't say for sure but I think you can just change the checksum value so it's simply a matter of locating it. On the AG ECU I remapped I could never locate the checksum so never bothered with it, it just gives a VAG-COM error but runs as normal.
-
On another note, if you change the size of the injectors remember to adjust the temperature enrichment map accordingly. I bet this has cost me 10 to 20 quid in excess fuel over the last month or so :bad-words: for such a simple fix. Can't believe I didn't click onto this until now, but satisfying never the less. :D
-
You could do that but I think it would make life very difficult for yourself. I'd like to bet it's MAF related, does the engine keep running if you unplug it while its running. Also you must get it on VAG-COM as that will more than likely tell you what's not working if it is running in limp mode. My mate has a Golf VR6 which constantly runs in limp mode. It would only spit out the odd MAF error code, along with a pretty much constant lambda out of range error. We checked and double checked the wiring but all was good. It would keep running if we unplugged the MAF yet all the MAF voltages were spot on while it was idling. We could only put it down to the ECU, he's yet to buy a new ECU as it's his summer car.

No Probs mate, I'll get them PDF'd when I get back to work or any other format if you prefer.
-
Good article that mate! Didn't realise that you had to multiply the single pots by 2. Make sense really as they have to travel twice as for as the 4 pots. That also explains why the Boxster S rears I've used are so much higher than the 288 calipers that were on before that. And also makes me feel much more comfortable with fitting the Boxster S fronts now as pedal travel shouldn't be that different to the 312's I have on now. :D
-
It seems to me that they have simply taken the piss! I hate to say this but their engineering skills are wnak! For a first time customer that may well be acceptable :lol: , but I have been there and received the goods, and they were of such a poor quality it quite frankly left me in disbelief. Fortunately I have quick use of a machine shop so could quickly correct the problems, the workmanship was so poor the tensioner pulley did not fit through the bracket itself and the pulley extension was on the piss due to either a lazy machinist or bad drawings, I suspect the later! By the way (I work in a drawing office), so I have had them redrawn up to the correct dimensions. So if you want a copy that will actually fit your car just ask! As far as I am concerned Storm are a bunch of bodge artists! I will never deal with them again!
-
Remove them on the car by swinging on them, and fit them off the car with a great feck off clamp! A bit of lube on the o-rings helps too! Clean rail and manifold bores well as they are a bit on the tight side
-
I think its probably just the additives. Corrosion inhibitors. Something to keep the seals healthy (I think this is the main difference as it depends on the sealing methods used in the coolant system) Something in it to plug minor leaks.

3852mm^2 for 996 fronts mate, that's what I have (on garage floor unfortunately) so can't yet comment on pedal feel. However the 996 rears actually have a noticeably higher pedal than the 288/312 calipers that I replaced on my standard C. I can only guess that must be the better pad pressure distribution with the 4 pots. As for pads for the Boxster S rear calipers, I used front pads from the Standard Boxster, they are the same caliper but pads are a bigger, therefore frictional area closer to that of the 288/312's, still not as big though!

Chargecooler rad looks a good size! Where did you get it from?
