if your running 3.4 on a series III SC and not getting any knock it may be worth more ponies to add timing. But you might want to verify your knock sensors are working.

Back when I did my 3800 I learned the same lesson , ZZP iffy when things go wrong. Intense was great for every transaction and most importantly someone answered the phone when you needed to talk to them.

yea here is my build thread -->> Biuld thread linky

and here is my drag day thread -->> headed to the drag strip linky


Nothing to special about the car 1986 SE 3800 series 2 out of a 98 Bonneville ssei trans was from the same car and I've never had them separated. Mods are a Intense 3.4" Pulley, ZZP 1.0 PCM, EGR & EVAP delete, NKG TR55 plugs, 3" single exhaust and for track purposes I run a cheapo 3" intake routed directly to the factory opening in the rear 1/4. I'm also running MickeyThompson ET Street drag radials on the stock 14" fiero rims

I really should update my build tread, as soon as i got it running I stopped taking pictures and updating, been having too much fun.

I went ahead and bought a DHP PowerTuner. I figured out how to read the PCM, disabled the two DTCs they left on it (one was a purge solenoid and the other was the oil level code).and then reflashed the PCM.

Now I still have to change the coupler then I can hit the track finally!



I'm still getting a growling noise at WOT from the engine with the BBV tied open and SC pulley clamped still. So its not the supercharger.

I am worried that it could be detonation.
I went through the DTC fault codes enabled and the knock sensors were disabled in the ECM I had ZZP do, is that right?


do I need to bore scope my cylinders?

Thats just stating that a knock sensor fault does not have the ability to activate the check engine light. not that the PCM in ignoring them.

Mine are "off' as well

I put in new Accel yellow plug wires.
I deleted the #2 O2 sensor from the ZZP tune.
I did a case relearn, though probably unnecessary.
Ran the hell out of it, and no weird noises! YAY!!!


EDIT;
I spoke too soon. Its back.

I put 938 miles on it taking down to the 30Th and back. It ran like a charm.

The second one was my best.
I'm running 15 year old BFG radial TA's.
3.4 pulley.
If any one has a suggestion on tuning using the DHP Power Tuner, please help me break into 13 seconds.

Increase shift points, lean out the base AFR, add timing in the lower RPM range.

Also, add a Wideband o2 to insure the AFR is actually what is being commanded,
