Which O2 sensor are you using? Just the Innovate Motorsports one?

:oops:

I'm not sure what brand it is. I bought it from NMX516. He bought it for his Pulsar and never ended up hooking it up.

Perhaps he could shed some light. :)

im running an emanage and 330cc mazda gtx injectors....if you want some info on tuning let me know.....just for reference here are my TOTAL duty cycles for my injectors at WOT to give you an idea of where to be.....

3000rpm, 6psi, 26%DC
3500rpm,7psi, 36%DC
4000rpm,7psi,42%DC
4500rpm,7psi,46%DC
5000rpm, \" ,57%DC
5500rpm, \" ,64%DC
6000rpm, \" ,71%dc
6500rpm, \" ,70%DC
7000rpm, \" ,68%Dc

these are datalogged from my car and is a good afr of around 12:1, im also running 14 degrees base timing and pulling 1 degree per psi between 3000-5000, i add 1 degree back in per 1000 rpm above 5000, and also 1 degree per 500 rpm below so my 7 psi line looks like this....
2000=-5*.2500=-6*,3000=-7*........5000=-7*,6000=-6*,7000=-5*

this timing map is great and produces NO knock on bp ultimate 98 fuel.It could probably take 2 degrees more advance but this is fine for a street setup with some margin for error.let us know how it all goes.....

BTW are you running a map sensor? or are you going to tune off the afm?

I am also running the latest software/ firmware version 1.25/1.47....if you want to update the soft/firmware then you have to first install the version 1.11.1.30 and then update it to 1.25/1.47...you cant just try to install the 1.25 all by itself without first installing the 1.11.

I will be running a map sensor. It's the 2.5bar motorolla one that a lot of the US guys use.

Can you post a link to where I can download the correct update files please? I had the support tool CD software from when I bought the emanage, so that was all installed (version 1.4 I think :?: ).

Thanks for the input, very much appreciated, I'm sure I'll have plenty of questions for you over the coming weeks. :D

sure can.....just a second ill go look for it... :D

http://www.mohdparts.com/emanage/index.html

just go down to the short cuts and select the software and firmware updates..thats where i got mine from.....
if they are not there anymore im sure theyll be in the forum section somewhere...or even on miataturbo.net sticky section in the emanage section.

happy to answer any questions you have.

by the way advance your CAS to advance your INJECTION timing as well as your ignition timing...this is similar to the injector offset function in most stand alone ecu's....this helps the 330cc injectors start and idle a bit better..you then just retard the timing to suit.

Update!

8) Emanage is in and working 100%. I am data logging and fine tuning the a/f ratios in my autotune today, but all is going very well!

The map sensor is doing it's job (thanks to some diagnostics by zoomzoom with a multimeter yesterday) and pulling timing based on boost (actually, adding based on not being on boost... :mrgreen: )

There are still a few little stumbles which I want to smooth out, but the car is running nicely. Now I just need to fix a few rattles here and there, finish my heat shielding, and Robert's your father's brother! 8)

Dyno and engineering this week hopefully, 2nd car (lanos) on the market the week after! :lol:

I'll post some pics of a few of my goodies... :mrgreen:
