stevefoster Posted February 19, 2003 Share Posted February 19, 2003 Had another mapping session tonight. I used the avgerage of two maps that gave a less aggressive advance and played around with RobAstras low throttle settings. Worked much better. Played around with the fuelling a bit on low TPS setting but went back to the standard. The rattle I was talking about is gone. I assume it was pinking solved by the above. Tried the advanced mapping box and I can see how it works in car. It will now pull cleanly from 1050 rpm as silly throttle depressions. FI is cool when it comes get up and go at low RPM.

16vastra Posted February 19, 2003 Share Posted February 19, 2003 yup, just another few years of tinkering with the settings and you might well be satisfied Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevefoster Posted February 20, 2003 Author Share Posted February 20, 2003 How right you are. Fun though. Thanks for all the help Rob. Without that I would have been making slow progress.

stevefoster Posted February 21, 2003 Author Share Posted February 21, 2003 Just an update Drove the 7 for nearly an hour! Beautiful day. Lucky to have hols today! No Pinking, occasional pop on overrun. It is a different machine! Feels like a real race car now! The exhaust note is fairly purposeful... It is better on the stiffer rear springs too. The front hauls round much nicer with no swat under power. Forgot to say many thanks to all who have helped me on this project. From a box of bits with no instructions to working FI.
