Just ran some logs...

[makaveli42]

only thing i can tell from them is that im running about 15psi of boost. idk what the difference between actual vs specified boost is?

i logged lambda, boost, and timing. Any feedback on if my car is running smooth and strong or not would be appreciated it.:hey:

Looks great. You should log in turbo mode though. Button is at the top of the screen before you hit "log".

What the ecu is commanding = specified. What the engine is actually producing = actual.

Thanks! Rich @ Viper told me to run logs and see if there's any major tweaks he can do to make more power, but if I'm running fine then there not much he could do I guess.


I saw the turbo button but wasn't sure what it did. Is there any other things I should log that would show anything that would affect power? Besides egt...

[makaveli42]

And as far as the "actual" boost, if that what the turbos are producing or what the engine is receiving, like if I had a boost leak would it show in the logs??

[kevin]

What kind of condition are your intercoolers in? Are they oily along the bottom?

[lswing]

Also, helps to clean up the logs. Export from excel as single file web page, then open in browser, select content and copy, then paste into your post here. Also trim out extra categories.

Sorry, first timer here lol

Just revealed them about a month ago. I just didn't know if the logs would show a boost leak or not??

[lswing]

No worries, did seem to take a bit to hit full boost, turbo mode will help a ton...

[Chung]

It makes it faster, duh.

[lswing]

Thats cold man:) So what tune you switching to?

PS; please straighten up those Miltek tips, forgot to mention that few weeks ago.

[Chung]

ha, of course I was being sarcastic. I was trying to find a clip from the Top Gear where they talk about how everyone started putting turbo on things that don't make sense, like razors.
I am not switching tunes but with Dave's help I am updating my Eurocharge tune. I will add a thread when I have logs for it. I have not clue how to read them but like many here would like to learn.


P.S.
My whole exhaust doesn't fit quite right. 4th of July when I am at my sister's I might try tweaking it a little. I think they just don't fit that well though.

Nothing a torch can't fix! Those pipes can move a lot, can be a pain, loosen them up and they should fit, i hope. Tucked my exhaust in a bit to match newer flush look.
