Re: New ECU Series

Hi Alex,

I've seen several shops now offering the new T-line of ecu's, so does that mean the software is ready or are the shops just being opportune?

Also: do the new ecu's come with the main sockets and pins for it in the box?

Thanks,
Walter

Re: Twin-spark misfires under boost - ECU power?

Thanks for letting us know, glad it's sorted, must have been coincidental?? Can't say if it was 'coincidental'. Thats usually used when we just don't know what exactly happens :lol: If you'd ask me, I'd say that I was on the limit of what both ground terminals could manage and that grounding the ca...

The new ecu’s Alex?
Maybe I missed it, but could you spill the beans a bit more as to what is coming?

Re: Twin-spark misfires under boost - ECU power?

Hey guys and all that helped me: found it (last year :oops: )! I also could not believe it would not work this way, so got back to the basics and what never had been a problem, now seemed to be the issue: I had never grounded the ecu casing itself! The casing even has an eyelet for a ground strap, b...

Re: Twin-spark misfires under boost - ECU power?

Now time to try 0 offset again !! Or 0.00000001 ? lol Well, its certainly not too rich anymore, running pretty close to target map, so I tried 0 off-set again: Bang-bang! loud mis-fires under boost (at around 4400 RPM this time and only 0.65 bar) :| Reset to 1 degree off-set: no problem! Not even a...

Re: Twin-spark misfires under boost - ECU power?

Thanks so much for the thinking out loud guys, that really helps me and my thinking process a lot too! Yesterday I renewed and upgraded one coil-pack with thicker wiring (the kind that _just_ fits into the DTA socket :) ) and a new coil-pack socket. The other one already had the tick wires. From the...

Re: Twin-spark misfires under boost - ECU power?

That is cool...is it a common thing ? Nope, its a set of billet alu heads, small batch. I'am not the only one running these, but pretty sure I am the only one using them in a boosted application ;) The problem isn't there for others with these twin-spark heads and dual coils either, but thet are N/...

Its a pretty wide 98mm bore, so relative to other cars, save for the 3,6 ltr aircooled Porsches (which run 100mm), its a big bore and plugs are not that close I think.

Re: Twin-spark misfires under boost - ECU power?

OOh interesting idea. so to simply check just change the spark offset to something other than 0.0 but I can't honestly see it being anything like that. Update: I actually just entered this idea into the ecu and gave in 2 degrees off-set: problem gone! :shock: :mrgreen: Did 2 perfect full WOT runs o...

Re: Twin-spark misfires under boost - ECU power?

I would verify that your AFR readings are correct...ie 2nd opinion, and also how are you reading this ? via the devices own gauge, or via some analogue output to another reader ( ie ecu ) ? Have you ensured these are all calibrated correctly ? I use an Innovate MTX-L set with a direct (wide band) f...
