Apparently you people missed what Dave said.

IT RUNS!!!1!11!!one

Okay, now that that's out of my system...
I'll be heading up there soon, as Dave mentioned, so that I can hopefully dial the tune in enough to make it drivable. With any luck, I won't have to do anything. I will tweak a few things that I've thought about or that has changed since I burned the chip(s) at the least. Nothing major, though.

I wanted the easily swappable parts to stay stock for now so that the close-to-stock tune will be more likely to run it smoothly. With the TT IROC-Z I jumped into a lot of things right off the bat and it made it much more difficult to dial in (I never quite got there).
It's running the stock TGP code ($8F) with a few minor changes.
-A few things were tweaked in this version that I DL'd that should theoretically let it idle and coast-down better with the 5-speed, all TGP's were auto. A lot of people have used this code with manual trannies and to my knowledge not a single one of them has ironed out 'all' of the auto-to-manual stumbling issues, but hopefully this will be good enough until I switch to Code59.
-I pulled some fuel down low and added some up top (then some more) because the Gen III top end flows better. Less torque down low and more power up top...
-I pulled timing in the high-ish KPa's (amount of atmosphere being shoved in) to be very conservative for the initial shakedown.
That's about it. The changes, though minor, are a complete stab in the dark. We'll see how it works out.

I kept the TB from the 3100, it's larger than the TGP's but smaller than the 3400's. That will soon get changed out for a 3400 TB when it gets home and runs fine. I'll probably have to fiddle with acceleration enrichment (AE), but not much.
The TGP 22lb/hr injectors are installed so the base fueling won't be affected at all. Larger injectors tend to cause issues that need to be tuned out (more than just changing the injector constant). When it runs fine, I'll install the 42's. Though, I do plan on twisting the AFPR up to 55psi while at The Haus because that'll bring the flow up to about 25lb/hr, which still won't be quite enough.
If they will handle the measly 8.7 psi, they'll be on the ragged edge and might go static (100% duty cycle... held open... not the greatest thing). In that case we'll either need to keep from going WOT at all, I'll need to pull lots of timing past 5psi or so, or the 42's will have to be installed 'early'. That might work out... we'll see. For now I just want the thing to run at a relaxed pace without jerking, stumbling and/or stalling the whole way home.

More coming soon...

I currently have a 355 nose on mine, but if someone actually has a 512 nose as in your photo that would be so SWEET. The lines look much cleaner. It's taken me 7 years to get my wife to come around and accept further upgrades. Hoping to go to some Fiero meets this year. I also noticed you have Fiero leather seats from Mr. Mike's. Have you decided on Recaro seats? Charles

Amida is making the 512 nose, he's nearly done with the prototype. The fourth one he makes is reserved for me as I have put a deposit on it. It does look great.

I've decided on the Corbeau A4 seats, but my wife won't let me buy them until my Mr. Mike's are sold (go figure). I haven't been trying to sell them very hard yet as it's lower on the priority list. It'll get up there soon, though.

quote Originally posted by ALLTRBO: ...I'm having Dave to (hopefully) get it running 'reasonably enough' on my modified TGP .bin's to get home, then I'm going to throw in a 3-bar MAP and start fresh with Code59, it's a MUCH better code and WAY more documented. ...I can tune over the phone with Dave if need be, but swapping from $8F (TGP code) to Code59 is a whole different ball game.

quote Originally posted by ALLTRBO: I'll be switching to Code59, though. It's WAY more documented and supports 3-bar which I'll need.

Thanks for the suggestion though!

I haven't had any time for anything at all lately, but here's an update.

Dave has finished everything but the new alternator bracket, severe weather has been holding him up. After that, it's time for my visit, then he'll test it out for a little while (I think) before I pick it up.

I need to make it to Back On Holiday's place to pick up his '88 GT front inner-fenderwells, but that has proven to be absolutely impossible for the last month or so. I'd like them to be installed before the car goes out for its first drive.

I got the netbook, installed the SSD and RAM upgrade, and all is going well. Cold boot up is now 42 seconds from pressing the power button to a fully loaded desktop and ready to work. Shut down takes 9 seconds. Those are down from 1:45 and 15 seconds, respectively, with the stock HDD and RAM.

I bought a mini-camcorder that will record up to full HD (1080p), and a 16GB SD card for it. Expect many videos, starting with my visit to the Haus. It also takes still pics up to 8MP, and I shot a couple at 2MP real quick for this thread since I didn't feel like pulling out the camera.

I'm still waiting for Dave to recover (from more than one thing), but to post something anyway:

Jetstream Blue =



Opinions?
