Re: datalogging to decipher stock timing map

your obdII.. just run the stock ecu and see what the ign timing is via a logger tool

i know my buddies 95 eclipse had obdII (mitsu started in 95) and remember reading ignition timing when we were cruising. you could video tape it with a freind in the car and then later on look at the data and see ...

Re: Starting to tune on Alpha-N

not to discourage you (me being 18 as well ) but ITBs on a v8 will have a touchy throttle and might not be nice to drive on the street. with that said, go for it!

tuning with alpha n should be easy. once you get the car to start you just have easy stuff left. tune the idle by adding fuel or ...

Re: Shadow Logger MS for Android

was doing some thinking and the adapter you recommend should (key word, should) work with my laptop because my laptop has bluetooth as well

this would be nice because i wont have to switch to my cable when using the laptop...

i hope to make my purchase on Wednesday

Re: Shadow Logger MS for Android

ve analyze works too.. i just never got it to work well for me on the laptop. usually i do a log, load it in megalogviewer, and then update the controller with my new tune through tuner studio. that always got me the best results.

just being able to adjust things with android (like ve and spark ...

car got a tach signal! but didnt start due to no injectors. So im not sure what was wrong with the original wiring but now its getting a tach signal ...

Re: dosnt start AFTER rewire. what did i do wrong

i then unhooked MS and plugged my stock ecu in.. had the test light still on ...

Re: dosnt start AFTER rewire. what did i do wrong

no rpm signal while cranking

this makes me somewhat happy because it now makes sense why the car wont spark or squirt fuel.

im going to check over pin 24's wiring and see if i can figure something out

ill post back when i have more info

Re: dosnt start AFTER rewire. what did i do wrong

i cant really remember as i didnt know to watch the rpms.. i was only watching the pulse width and the ign advance


I dont see why i dont though to be honest, if i dont have any rpms, i have all the wires ...

dosnt start AFTER rewire. what did i do wrong

i had my MSII wired and the car was starting.. it didnt run the best but it started

my original wiring job was a poor one ( i made a 60pin adapter and the pins liked to fall out)

this adapter plugged into my stock engine harness (i simply unplugged the harness from my stock ecu and plugged it ...

Re: MSD blaster 3 coil settings

well i have it set at 8.5 now

the tune i was looking at (is a daily driven tune) was .7 and msd says 350 so i guess it dosnt really matter


i tried to put something ridiculous (to get TS to use a default value and 8.5 was that value)
