Hi all Got my rex running again, ready for dyno/street/track tuning, So i open up the box for my knocklink, read the instructions, then working out the install  & intergation into the ecu is no worries, its the fine tuning the knocklink as a very novice tuner worries me. I know what pinging, but i am not confinident that my ears will know what there listening for, How loud does it come thru the headphones? Looking at the Knocklink G4 & its self calibration, this looks like a better way to go for the novice. Note the car will be being tuned by an actually tuner, but i need to know what i am doing  , for track days, cant bring the tuner everywhere, what to be able to check the log after each session  thanks again James

Thanks very much Simon, had a 15 min window of time in the shed, armed with above info, confirm the sensor worked, Â it was one of the female crimp connectors, out hadn't latched in the plug and was pushed backwards/ out sorted that, all reading properly now thanks again

Also another Q the new sensor i am running is the same one thats on the IAT sensors page on the link web site for this sensor what should be selecting STD Bosch NTC? Â Thanks

Hi All Putting my car back together after a year off the track due to engine fail, the car is running but, Running the Expansion connector An Temp 3 is seeing 100c Same with sensor unplugged, Same with extension wire removed Voltage meter across Green/GND & Orange/Temp 3 - 4.96v Voltage meter on the wires from the IAT sensor - 0.17 (10c or less out side) ------------- What am i suppose to be seeing across GND & TEMP3 ------- I have An Temp 2 turned off due to reading -40c (sensor in the Maf has failed, but u have never used this input, always used An Temp 3)  Cheers James Itchn to run this motor in

Ok, was the dipswitches, I thought as it was almost running that it would have been them, but changed them & up she started. Trimmed the main fuel to 8ms to get it idling in a stable fashion Got the Wideband wire in, idling @ 12.1:1 so still rich but can drive in & out of the shed Will do some more reading up on the Quicktune function, but first I'll fit the new IAT, Â Thanks very much for your inputs

At the moment i am running stock injectors, (grey 380cc ) At the moment, I want to have car running before i change the injectors (1300cc E85 ready ) Someone has suggested i turn off the IAT sensor & have another crack at starting But I'll take your advise first & try the master fuel first  Once it has started & idles i can remove the manifold for changing injectors & fuel lines, then install the aftermarket IAT then set that up   Â

Hi there I'll start with - I am a complete novice in regards to ECU install & setup I was hoping to get the ECU, Extra connector loom, Optional IAT sensor, Knocklink installed & running enough to drive on to the trailer to get it tune Already running a Innovate LC-1 Wideband sensor & Gauge, - Need to wire into the Link  I have got the link running the lasted firmware, I have started with Subaru V3-4.PCL file The IAT sensor is seeing 100c on Ignition (car hasn;t been run for a week & its 6c outside) (causing the ecu to drown the eng with excess fuel on start attempts) - Is STD Bosch NTC - is this right sensor, (i do have the optional replacement to installed, but i wanted to have the car running before i starting adding all extra parts.0 - MAP sensor - the sensor type is set to Subaru V7-8 - I change this to v1-6 but then the MAP calibration fails - MAF Sensor - Set to Subaru V7-9 ,But there is no preconfigured option for V1-6 MAF  Has Anyone got a better stock Subaru 98 File that will get the car running James CQE WRX, 98 Green 4 door, 2.0 or 2.5ltr (depend on which one is not broken at the time), 6speed, Â

Hi all Just got the ecu into the car, connects fine, all looks ok except for IAT seeing 100c when car is 100% cold  thought i do the firmware update to reduce changes later on DOS screen loads up, ask me if i want to update from 4.8.x to 4.9.3 , select Y , it then comes up with an error that it can on complete the communcation on COM1-9 fails, with only option to exit, http://jbondinc.customer.netspace.net.au/WRX/LinkG4%20wrx3%204%20firmware%20update%20error.jpg Now i am unable to connect to the ecu in the car as 'ecu in boot mode, please run the firmware update again'  any tips James
