**** i cant even pull the crap up! I must be a dumb one also but dang someone help me out. I click link nothing ? done read through the whole thread still confused! Help The first post link doesnt work? comes up then gone??? help

Yep, code 17 = Insufficient power, turbo upgrade required.

hey gimpy,
there was a miscomunication about my code. it will work with a boosted rom. pease updata the faq! the only reason i said anything about it was because the boost CONTROL code used AC but it didn't even work anyway. however, if you don't have the AC box checked, it will not affect your AC in any way.

Verry nice since i dont want to use AC :D
Another question:
If i change the Compression Rate of my engine to a lower compression lets say 9:1
What do i have to change on my timing ?? and is ther anny formula to calculate it ?? ( because i have to draive the car to a dyno to tune it nicely )
what im asking if i cange the compression rate of my engine what do i have to change on my timing and/or fule settings( to ceep it safe and rich so i can dyno it without blowing something in the first run..) ??

Personally I would back out timing and add a little more fuel to be safe...
You remove timing w/ a turbo car because a more condensed mix burns faster - the higher the c/r, the faster it burns. So you want to pull timing as c/r goes up because the mix is getting more condensed and hence should burn faster
Hopefully someone that knows more will jump in and correct my guess.

If you are on a high compression to start with, and with boost you should be taking out more timing than on a lower compression engine. So if you are lowering the compression you got more safety margin and can afford to run a more aggressive timing.
Why do you want to calculate how much timing with compression?? The Retard/lb of boost will do it for you. I'm sure you already know that and so it would be up to you how much timing you wanna pull per lb of boost, be it 0.5 or 1deg/Lb.
Toxic, did you get my IM?

Is it possible to write a script to boost cut using uberdata. As we all know it's a safe way to control boost if it happens to go above our set limits. For instance if the wastegate fails or if the boost controller fails. This would be a nice feature but I'm not sure if uberdata could cut ignition. Hmmm.......any thoughts?

So if i lower the comp and i leave my timing alone it will be save and because of the safty margin ill let my dyno tuner do the rest ??
But if i would be getting i higher compression i schould pull the timing back??

Set a max boost level ( just like a max rev limit ) and if the map reading goes past that number cut ignition.. thats my idea of it.

Idealy, ignition. Cutting fuel while heavy in the throttle (high load) will instantly heat things up in the combustion chamber since there's no fuel to cool the highly compressed air. It may only be for a split second before the revs die since the motor is unable to combust compressed air with no fuel to ignite the mixture, but I'd still be more comfortable with an ignition cut, or dumping an enormous amount of fuel at the "boost cut" forcing the engine to bog, but of course you run the risk of damaging the turbine when it becomes drenched in raw fuel igniting on the super heated turbine blades.
Just my .02, I'd like to hear some more feedback on this though.

I have always believed the same thing as you. Fuel cut isn't "theee deveeeel" but it's not perfect.

Sorry, I thought you were raising comp... yes. Lowering the compression will make it less prone to detonation, therefore allowing more advance at the same boost level... I think. I would pimp-slap anyone that called me a tuner. I'm a ghetto hack

That's what I think, for the reasons I stated in my earlier post... that it should be OK if you lower compression with the same timing adjustment, but if you up the compression, pull timing. Personally I wouldn't boost until you get it tuned with the new compression anyway, so for getting from the shop to the tuners' you should be fine driving it.

ok....cool. I've been trying with these scripts and making some progress but if anyone cares to help create such a script go right ahead.

I still can't get 1.63 to run in my car, NVM working on the scripts 
1.62 just immediately threw a CEL, 1.63 just cranked and cranked and cranked... it caught once or twice but immediately stalled and threw a solid CEL soon after
I'll get it running sooner or later, maybe after the snow storm ends
Until then I'm still on 1.2.

? about using FTL.....I looked in the FAQ and when activated does it ignore the stock rev limit until the disable speed is reached or until you uncheck the box and reburn(or turn off with AC button)??
also have any of you ever tuned for FTL?? it seems like its pretty critical to get fuel/timing right in the RPM range that you'll be launching at
also have any of you ever tuned for FTL?? it seems like its pretty critical to get fuel/timing right in the RPM range that you'll be launching at
It ignores the actual rev limiter until the VSS reads over whatever you set the disable speed to (when you have FTL enabled). Keep in mind you won't actually be going 9mph or whatever, that's just how fast your tires are spinning.
