Tunning the Supercharged car (SC tuner help)

[SHOTIME]

So as you guys know We finished up Benvies S/Ced car last night..


Now I need HELP!!

So the car is having idle problems, I understand alot of you are?

Can anyone give me some general SC tuner knowledge?

I know the Air/Fuel is running a bit low, gotta get a bit more seat time.



We have dyno time for next week, so im not going to get to crazy now. But id like to know what im looking at when I get there..

no twEECer?

 

[yamahaSHO]

no twEECer?

He said SC tuner....

 

[DavidT]

you don't say...

I thought those things were JUNK, and the twEECer was the People's Choice.

 

[yamahaSHO]

The SC tuner works very well, it just doesn't data log. That's the only reason I did not buy the SC tuner off of Pat. I like some things better on the SC tuner than I do on the TwEECer.

Glad to hear that benvie finished his car

What is the idle set to right now? Is it just not a steady idle, or does it drop low and then jump back up?

 

[SHOTIME]

Idle was fixed through a MSD issue. Damn thing comes with 20 something switches.. Got them all back where they were supposed to be and she ran like a top.

And david, you dont look a gift horse in the mouth.. it came running very well on the car. Made nearly 400 HP.. had to have been doing something right.

Eric,

If you guys need any (additional) tuning help, feel free to shoot me an e-mail.

I have the MSD, i was running with it on the wrong switches for years, heck i may still be.

 

[SHOTIME]

One of the dip switches caused the car to "red line" at 3800 RPM..

Interesting stuff..

 

[DavidT]

isn't that where the rev limiter hits in the ATX in neutral?\


Whats the MSD?

 

[yamahaSHO]

It's not an ATX.

MSD is an ignition system...

Hey Eric, when are you going in for dyno time?

 

[DavidT]

I have the MSD, i was running with it on the wrong switches for years, heck i may still be.

[SHO--ripper]

Eric let me know how the SCtuner works out becuase i just picked one up to tune my car. BTW what dyno are you going to? Mabye my car will be ready by then

 

[SHOTIME]

Its being postponed for a few weeks now. But we plan to go to NEDyno. They have some experiance with the SC tuner software for the mustangs. So they may have some clues.

If you guys want Ill make sure its pretty public when we go.

Any pics of Chris' car/engine bay? I'd like to see his S/C installation!

 

[thebigjimsho]

I didn't know if it would be cheaper to get more people in when you go, Eric. I just want to get a baseline on the V for reference. If that can work into your schedule, let me know. That would also be dependent on me getting off work.

Let me know the dealio!

Unless Dean's got that other tuner guy, I wouldn't count on anything as far as actually TUNING. That part of "New England Dyno & Tuning" has been sorely lacking since he opened.

I'd like to see what my catless pipe & Dynomax give me for numbers too, so if you schedule an open date, let me know. I've seen others here who've asked about dyno time recently too.
