    M1tch reacted to Adamw in Base/typical values for closed loop boost PID   
    Yes, just put gear on 1 axis of your base DC table.  Or if you want more control variables you can switch between 3 different base tables, say have 1 for 1st & 2nd, change to table 2 for 3rd & 4th and table 3 for top gear.

    If you right click and select 'whats this?' option it will open the help file with all of the explaination of how these work - its very comprehensive.
    If you aren't able to update the deadtimes for injectors or tune the fuel table using the AFR tables and logs it might be worth booking into a tuner for the work else you might cause damage.

    You download the file, go to the dwell time table, right click, click on 'import/export and then 'import from file' - you then open the file you have just downloaded and it will load in the table for you.

    We can deal with either option. If switching to ground then the Di will need the pullup turned on, If switching 12V then pullup will need to be turned off on the Di.

    M1tch got a reaction from Islam fouad in Odd question - limiting torque through tuning   
    Hi all,
    Bit of an odd one, just wanted to ask how best to limit the torque output via the engine mapping, the basis of this question is owing to the torque limit on my transmission - basically looking to limit peak torque in certain scenarios. I will be getting my forged engine fully mapped on a rolling road but just wanted to ask the question now.
    Basically my forged engine will have the capacity to have a higher torque output than my upgraded gearbox is rated to, I know that my gearbox can cope with slightly more than its rated torque but am looking at how to limit peak torque when needed - a bit like an engine rev limiter.
    I am guessing I should be able to limit the torque by pulling timing out in certain cells at certain boost levels using a 3D table?
    Eg:
    7 psi - no adjustment
    14 psi - no adjustment
    21 psi - some adjustment
    28 psi - more adjustment
    For my build, here are my limits (to give everyone an idea):
    1.8 Litre engine Forged rods and pistons (9.5:1 compression) Supertech valvetrain rated to 8,500rpm CSS strengthened block able to cope with around 600bhp Stock gearbox with upgraded 3rd and 4th gears - rated to 295ft/lbs although have chatted to someone who ran 365 ft/lbs through them Now, a stock engine with a low boost turbo (7psi) makes around 220 bhp and 185 ft/lb torque, and probably around 250bhp and 200ft/lbs at 12 psi, have seen figures for a forged engine making around 420bhp and the 365 ft/lbs at 35 psi on a GT3071 turbo, I am looking at an EFR 6758 for my build which should flow well at lower boost but not run out of legs at the top end.
    Is anyone able to guesstimate the sort of torque I should be expecting? I think I should be ok with a bar of boost in terms of torque but anything more I think I might need to run a limit of some sort to keep it around the 300ft/lb mark - basically looking to make the most power I can (as the rest of the engine can make it). I have also seen these engine make around 500bhp at 7,500 rpm and 28psi on a 6262 but the peak torque is probably at around 460 ft/lbs - tad much!
    Plan for my build is an 11 second 1/4 mile car but daily driven - plan to run full power at the drag strip then drop boost pressure to a lot lower for the road - basically looking to make sure that the gearbox holds ok for the couple of drag runs to prove it can run the time but then turn it down at all other times.
    Sorry - was a bit of a long post but was just wondering what everyone suggests.

    From what youve said about that log being approx 70mph, try 224 as your calibration number for DI1. should put you in the ballpark.
    Then grab a gps/phone and a straight road or dyno  and a friend, hold the speed steady on the GPS, then have your friend bump the number up/down until it matches.

    M1tch reacted to JMP in VVTi - link to TP% or MAP?   
    I'm working through a new map for a turbo 1zz I've been tinkering with for many years.  When I next get to the dyno I'll be trying a 4D fueling setup, with MPG for the main table, TPS for the 4D table, and TPS for the VVT table.  Will be tuning the main fuel table with the VVT and 4D tables zero'd out, when the main table is done I'll then do the VVT and 4D tables after that.
    If that doesn't work out nicely I'll give it a go with TPS as the load axis for the main fuel table with a BAP/MAP XOver equation load source.  
    Have had the turbo setup running for years with the VVT load set to TPS and Fuel table as MAP, but looking to make it a bit cleaner

    M1tch reacted to Adamw in Rich AFR causing knock? Issue with knock setup?   
    A modern 4 valve pent roof NA engine like this will not be knock limited with typical pump gas and intake air temps.  What that means is there is no point using knock detection to tune the ignition table as peak torque (optimum advance) will be achieved well before knock occurs.  Even if it was knocking you are unlikely to do any harm - it will need sustained long term knock under significant load to hurt it.
    I would expect it will want somewhere around 25 deg advance at the torque peak (say 4500), ramping up to say 28 at redline will be a reasonably safe place to be.  The Monsoon sample map ignition table would be fine.

    M1tch reacted to JMP in Basemap?   
    You need to use a map sensor for it to work.  Your engine will have a 36-2 sensor which will work perfectly. It's a massive pain to change the trigger wheel on the crank if you wanted to change to a 36-4(timing cover off, timing chain off etc). 
    It's unusual that boomslang configured the loom to use AN Volt inputs rather than the dedicated  analogue temperature inputs, hopefully they have wired in the pullup required when using the regular AN Volt inputs for temperature sensors.  Adam's file is still setup for a 3bar Link MAP sensor connected to AN Volt 2, I've updated it with the configuration for your AEM 3.5bar sensor.
    Your next steps are
    - wire the map sensor to the AN Volt 2 and connect it to the plenum post-throttle body.  I use the port on the plenum which used to go to the charcoal cannister VSV.
    - load the provided file and perform a TPS and MAP sensor calibration. 
    - do a base timing check with a timing light to ensure the ignition offset is correct (your map is set to 140, I find most 1zz's are around 145)
    - Get the engine running by adjusting the "Master Fuel" number under fuel main if it doesn't fire straight up
    - Ensure the AFR is in an acceptable range with your wideband (you have a wideband connected to the fury right?)
    - Use the Cam Angle Test in the VVT Setup menu to confirm the Trigger 2 VVT Offset is set correctly (your map is set to 47.7, the last one I did ended up at 51)
    - Configure the Trigger 1 and Trigger 2 Arming Threshold tables using data from the Trigger Scope
     
    With all that done it will be ready to start tuning and you will have very few further issues.
    On the 1zz's I've done, I use the "Toyota 1ZZ" Cam Control Mode combined with the "Toyota 2NZ VVTi" trigger mode.  I've never used the "Toyota 2NZ-FE" Cam Control Mode your map was configured with.

    Ok, tweaked version attached.  You had most of it pretty good.  I added the cal for the temp sensors, changed a few settings like VVT frequency and VVT target table was a bit messed up.
    There seems to be some 1ZZ's with 36-2 crank and some with 36-4 on the crank.  The 2NZ mode you have set in your map is for the 36-2 version.  If you get erratic RPM when cranking do a triggerscope and we will confirm what yours has.

    M1tch reacted to Brad Burnett in Wideband - do I need to go CANBUS?   
    The AEM Xseries will out put CAN data on the AEMnet wires.  Just connect them to CAN Hi and CAN Lo and follow the setup instructions in the help file.  There is no need for an additional adaptor.
    For connection to the ecu, you can either get a CAN F connector to connect the 2 can wires from the ecu to the CAN port next to the comms port, or you can just simply wire the 2 wires into CAN 2 which is on the B connector of the ecu.

    Load in the monsoon map, set up all inputs and outputs to match your wiring.
    Copy all settings from the 1ZZ page in the help file to the relevant fields in your map.  Adjust injector settings to match what you have.
    That should be about all that is needed.

    M1tch reacted to Simon in Can I adjust speedo?   
    Its a function in the ECU. On the Digital input there is a calibration figure. Adjusting this allows for different wheel sizes.
     
    A Digital Input may be connected to an electronic wheel speed or vehicle speed sensor (typically located near the output of the gearbox, or as an output from the vehicle dash board) to enable speed to be calculated.  These Digital Inputs can then be used to configure the Driven and Non-Driven Speed Sources.
     
      The Calibration number allows the ECU to calculate speed in km/h.
     
      Note:  In some cases erratic speed signals can occur due to unusual speed signal shapes.  Changing from Rising Edge to Falling Edge or vice versa may help with this problem.  This problem usually presents as random spikes of increased speed.
     
      Set-up Procedure:   The Calibration number is the number of pulses received over a 100 m distance.
     
      Method 1:  Drive the vehicle at a known speed and adjust the calibration number until the Vehicle Speed Runtime Value displays correct.
     
      Method 2:  Wheel Speed Sensors Only.  Calibration Number = (Number of Sensor Teeth / Wheel Diameter) * 31.83.  Note that wheel diameter is in meters (m).
     
      Typical values for speed calibration numbers range from about 170 to 280. The maximum frequency the digital input can accept is 500 Hz.
     
     
      Note:  Wheel Speeds can be checked in the Runtime Values Digital Inputs tab

    Yes, provided your speedo is electronic and you connect it to the ecu, then you can adjust it.  You need to connect the speedo to aux 1-8, assign the aux to "speedo out". You will then get these settings:

    M1tch reacted to JMP in Which ECU should I go with?   
    I'm in Australia and the AEM platform is almost non-existent here as we have so many other options that are well proven.  Download the PCLink software and have a look for yourself, I find it very user friendly.  One tip would be to learn the keyboard shortcuts for tuning as that makes things a lot faster.  I don't use the autotune stuff for AFR, it's easier to manually make adjustments to the map.  I use the mixture map function to assist with a bit of fine tuning after initially roughing in the fuel map.
    The cost of a map sensor doesn't come into the equation when I'm making a choice on an ECU for a new build, MAP sensors are cheap and represent a negligible percentage of the overall cost when implementing a standalone ECU on a custom turbo build.

    An early IO table from the ZZE122R Corolla turbo I did is attached for your reference and this is an example map you can view with the older Vipec VTS software: JYU 1ZZ 12032016.pcl
