Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog

Back to ~50psi base fuel pressure now. Car is driving great again! Nearing the end of the pump gas tune.

However, I apparently run out of gas at 1/4 of tank...lol. Got stuck in a papa murphys parking lot with 1/4 of a tank of gas. I put 3 more gallons in the car after my bro picked me up with a gas jug and it fired right up again. I am going to rework my pump pickup eventually but for now I will keep the gas level high.

However, running into a bit of knock up top that wasn't there before (aka last week). I think its probably from the shitty super america 92 I put in to top the car off. I wasn't near a BP station so I figured I'd put that in for now and then fill the car up at bp...guess that gas really sucks as it appears to be affecting the tune somewhat.

We tried leaning the car out from 11 to 11.5 to see if it was rich knock, helped a bit but still there. I now have 2 maps to try, one with lower timing one with higher to see if those change it. The higher timing is because evo x's for whatever reason tend to act up if you don't give them enough timing...i know last fall the car was even breaking up from too low of timing, then Shane added some and it cleaned up right away.

Car is at ~450whp or so on 22psi with knock so hopefully I can get about 475ish and clean on 22-24psi and then call it good for pump gas then get to the real shit.

More to come.

edit:

here is what the logs look like currently for those who care to check them out. Looking again it just might be too much timing for 93oct on my 10:1 comp, so maybe the lower timing MAP I have will clean it up as the car is perfect until it jumps up a degree in timing.



Green = timing
blue = boost
orange = afr
red (or brown or whatever the hell that is) = knocksum
