dream3R's R Project

[martin_r_smith]

You could try contacting ramair. They can make one-off's to suit I'm sure.

Edit: just had a quick look on their site and yes they do bespoke units to your specifications.

Nice one, thanks.

Not had an update for a while.

I've had a chance to do a little mapping and logging amidst the madness that Jan normally brings me.

60-100 is measured at around 5.3/4 seconds with the new turbo, staying in 3rd, not bad for an 1.7 ton R! I think my previous best was 5.9 with the KKK. This was in third, fourth I expect the figures to be better still but I can't think I ever measured fourth with the KKK in that manner, or at least I'd have to look through ooodles of log files to find it.

I've also further fine tuned the injectors, which I'm happy with the results, lambda 1 at idle with no stutter and very smooth part throttle around town and I'm still within 1% of factory fuel trims on my old greens. Happy

I'll keep this updated if anyone is interested. Must get the RS4 maf fitted and a suitable filter found....

Let's hope the turbo holds up for the long term, since I'm the first one in the UK to try it

Hello John I have some questions for you regarding your mapping/tuning.

Why is there such a huge discrepancy in the 60 - 100 times between your car and DTP's car? Because I was lead to believe you both have the same hardware? Tim confirmed DTP's car to be 100% mechanically sound, yet when it was timed it was 1.2 seconds slower than standard after you loaded your map on to DTP's car?
Shows here it being slower than standard http://forums.t5d5.org/topic/28358-££££-happens/page-8

Are you running Greens with your Turbo?

I would really Like to know the outcome of your end tuning ventures with this Turbo and what lessons if any were learnt by the hardware and mapping of yours and DTP's car?

Thanks Greg

You REALLY would? Why? Are you looking to purchase this turbo? Or rather, start an online argument with John?

Hi Greg,

I'll post any updates on my car here. Regarding DTP's car, it's nothing to-do with me anymore, I notified him that I was removing my services and offered him a refund with help to get his car in a state where it can go to another tuner, no reply unfortunately so that ship has now sailed.

DTP's map isn't the same as mine that is bad information, and neither is the hardware, my map has knock light, map switching, and is also fairly different boost profile and is actually finshed, plus mine has a stock head and his has a 2.4 T5 engine installed with different rods, different recirc valve, etc, his was timed at 5.6 secs (iirc??) when we were mapping/logging (he has all of that data), this was before the head came off though, again ask him! I think that is about as much as I can say on that subject.

We are designing/implementing a new MAF setup before things further with my car. TBH, it's fast enough, I might not bother, or I may decide on a forged engine build and go mental, who knows.

Injectors - I'm running DEKA's 630cc @ 3BAR.

I've been extremely busy with other things so not much time to devote to it over the past few months, apart from that it's getting its 3k oil change and also a full PCV replacement. Also, possibly, needs a O/S CV boot by the sounds of things, it's over 10 now

I've got to do some programming for the -04 R models for someone (5 bar PID controlled file etc) so my car will take a back seat for a few months whilst I complete that work.

Lastly, Greg, I'd rather not pollute my project thread with other peoples problems. I suggest a new thread. Also, the link to T5D5 sadly doesn't work for me, I have had my viewing, posting/replying and reading rights removed, but haven't been banned. I may look like I am ignoring things but I simply can't see them, plus I still have a habit of tapping in the URL which logs me in-to the site with zero privileges. This may also give the impression that I've been on but am ignoring posts or PM's.

By the looks of your post you want there to be something?

If you look back through the history of Johns work I used to be a fan of some of his stuff before we had an argument over something he did, but it does not mean i am not interested in what he has done or is doing? and by the looks of it he has cleared up my questions very politely in the same manner I have asked them So grow up it free country!

Thanks Greg

That attitude isn't going to help anyone. Only provoke what, IMHO, was a sensible, polite post by Greg into a row.

[Dream3r]

The joys of the Internet chaps, one can assume different things from the same post.

The other thing on my mind is a decat.

You can't argue that that post from Sizzlyt!ts was argumentative! Whereas you and Greg exchanged polite posts (for once ).

By the way, did you say you had a lead or something relating to the Jukebox I got from you? It's still in the box, in the garage by the way! It's on the list!

Ah yes, the lead that's been staring at me for yonks, lol. Pm me your address and I'll post it Monday matey.

Yes, polite, I try not to hold any grudges mate, life's far, far too short . No hard feelings from me Greg.

[S70T5Chris]

Cool, I'll text you

The above is a little baffling as it's not something that's been aired on this forum.

Sometimes reading a thread on another forum or any thread in general it's difficult to get the gist of what's happened with lots of input from people involved and others that aren't and just are set on stirring.

Is there a simplified short version.

Yep, there's been an arguement on T5D5, Dream3r has lost all posting and reading privileges, so now some of their members (who rarely use this forum) have brought the argument over to this forum.

[ExternalError]

Maybe it would be best hearing of DTP's issues direct from him rather than someone who has no connection to the transaction that went on between john and dave. Speaking from my own experience of johns work his customer service has been great he has taken my comments on how the car feels to drive and looked at the logs to identify what would cause my descriptions and adjusted the map to suit. I only have a limited knowlede of what has gone on between john and dave do wont comment any further on this also can i suggest this be moved to a new thread as it has nothing to do with johns project

[Dream3r]

I've reported the post.

I thought I'd ask, as I haven't read it all and it's hard to distill fact from abuse.

Just something's seem odd about it.

I've seen external errors car on the rollers and that looked good!

From this it was some sort of custom map, which wouldn't affect me running standard turbo etc.

Maybe lol, just to me on this forum looking at it, it just looks as though dreamer is not on t5d5 and people have come on to basically harass him here, as most have no idea what it's about.

is t5d5 still running then?

I'm interested in the knock light.....I wonder can it be done on M4.4
