Tuning alternative ......yes its possible.

[Biff]

just need to find someone clever enough to make a daughterboard for the 4.4......then you can live map but then it will prob be as expensive as the turbo tuner ecu lol........maybe I need to look at what other ecu's could work. as we put a 300zx ecu into an r33 gtst and live mapped that.

I could probably get that info off my geeky Saab tuner, he's a bit eccentric but he knows ecus & the electronics of cars inside out & if he doesn't know he finds out. I'll ask him next time I see him. His Astra mk3 is running 350bhp with a Saab b20 engine using tuner pro & his lock up is a mass of turbos, engines & looms/ecu's. In fact I'll send him that link now. Lol
Live mapping would be nice but reckon someone will cash in on it.
Fancy it DangerousDave?

Moates Ostrich Eprom Emulator works with Tunerpro and live maptracing I think. SimplyVolvo on VS has one (or at least one of the guys on the M4.4thread does). It's a USB emulator so can be updated live.

I keep meaning to burn my chip with Mercuric's rev5 biinary but haven't got round to it yet. Mine has a different ship on the board which uses a lower programming voltage of 5V but the ecu will supply 12V+ which is above my chip's maximum so I have to take it out and put it in my eprom prgorammer which is a ballache if I need to make lots of changes.

I will get round to it someday (have many other projects on the shelf which have the same timeline LOL, like my wireless arduino firework firing system)

[artfulflounder]

If you look on 'turbobricks' they've been using tuner pro with great success on lh2.4.

Some good basic info on how to set up with the ostrich and such like.

Might be worth a look.

so today I have been running a few tests......it's not brilliant.....for some reason my new injectors won't work correctly although there set up near enough to get started.....I get good tick over afr's but the car just cuts out after a while.
Blues back in and checking the afr's for them I can see that she's ticking over quite rich @ 11.3 to 11.8 . not near 14.7 target.
Also for some reason the fuel pump is not priming and stopping. it just keeps running......some tweaking to be done when I can see whats going on.
On a brighter note im deffo getting an ostrich 2.0 as live mapping is a must with this sort of project.

[Biff]

Keep learning dude. I will need your help no doubt!
Trial & error is ok but keep an eye on the afr's.

I'm very much looking forward to the day you post something sensible, instead of just posting junk on all the threads.

Lighten up and read some/most of my other stuff. No need to get narky really is there? No harm has been meant unless humour offends.

Have been stalking this tuning threads for a while now, Is it me or has this self tune stuff just made some massive leap forward or what, in the last month or so. Time the T5-R moved on up to 4.4 motronic as already done by Jamest5r, bold forward thinking step sir, even if you hadn't really thought of all the future tuning options, I'll have to dig though your thread to see how you upgraded to 4.4 mate

unplug 4.3 ....plug in 4.4. write base file.....start engine......log...tune.

[theflyingbrick]

im so convinced by this that I already have a second laptop the cable and a 4.4 ecu on route cant wait to play about with the features to say im excited is an understatement........................plus I wanna drive about with a laptop sitting on the passenger seat and pretend im in fast n furious

Just got Lucky mate lol Adam had done it for a few cars in the usa just think it was the only one he had ready and because I had no ac it could work, tbh I don't notice any differences when tuning I'm not that skilled I just used a base mte map and worked on the fuelling from there never dared touch the ignition map but all that will be done by a pro now anyone that trys this self tuning lark will hit a brick wall at a certain point and realise just take it to an expert with knowledge far greater lol wish I had before its held the development of my car back massively

310whp is held back? Lol
