Looks like Mason might get a break since my car isn't going to be ready by then it doesn't look. Still looking forward to being there and hanging with you guys.


Brakes are overrated and RPR has a long enough shut down for you

Hell, we may both have to ride with Mason on Sat...

Woke up at 230 am with a bad belly ache (my girl friend can't cook for shit). I just spent the last 3 hours and 60% battery life on my phone trying to get caught up your thread lol. Car is coming out quite nice with the "race" interior and fuel cell. I will be copying the float mod on the sending units when I go that route. Sucks to hear about all the hiccups with latest rebuild. It's amazing how much trouble you can have out of these auto light spark plugs. I've gone through 4 sets I think in 1500 miles. I've got my fingers crossed you'll be able to make a few passes this year.

Thanks! Manuel is working on the tune and I made a few 2nd gear pulls today. Its not going that easy this time, lots of issues to say the least. The good news is I think all the issues are solved on my end and its just tuning the new setup now, with the move of the maf, the new injectors, the gutted heads, and the new CR. I know today even with the heads gutted I hit 17.3 psi at 5200 rpms really fast in 2nd gear. Like with in 1 second on the data log. Another good thing is I have not had the DCTs come back since the plug swap, so add that to the P0340/P0344 code bank. I think when the issues are sorted out it will be very fast. I just hope tomorrow I can get to the 3rd gear pulls or the car will not be in Houston next weekend. We will see what happens tomorrow.

Got a lighter...

Oh no... Did something break? Or just getting frustrated?

 

[JEWC_Motorsports]

Ill give you a dollar for it.

I got two!

No, nothing broke. I am fighting a issue and am VERY frustrated with the car right now! I am at my wits end right now and this has to be a wiring or sensor issue. I don't think the plugs where an issue like I thought. I will retest them after this issue is figured out. Look at the screenshot below and you will see the RPMs climb and then level of as the car brakes up. Next thing is to check continuity of all the wires going to all sensors while moving the wires.

Welcome to any suggestions guys. I am lost!

 

[05stroker]

Okay just installed the new PMAS MAF and will test it in the am. If that don't do it is time to start checking all the wires to all sensors. If I wake up early like I usually do on my days off, I will check the wiring before waking up the the block.

 

[05stroker]

The MAF did not help. Manuel and myself think I am getting spark blowout. Here is a screen shot of the data log and I started another thread on the issue here in chit chat. Here is a shot of the issue and if anyone has a data log from what turned out to be spark blow out, please post it in my new thread for this issue or PM me with it.

I have always ran a .030 gap even with all the boost I run. This time however I didn't think about the jump from 9.0:1 to 12.0:1 adding more cylinder pressure and needing to be gapped down further. I have taken the plugs down to a .026 gap to test in the morning. If this fixes it I will do my testing with larger gaps and the DIS4 setup later. That's it for now.

Good luck bud. Just my experience to share, but with my 11:1 engine on 20lbs I had to go down to .028 on my HT0s and stock coils. I was at 0.032 but was getting some breakup in the higher rpms. Brought the gap done and it went away right away. Too bad I don't have a log of it to share.

When it broke up did it read leaner but was fine under less load?
