Newbie to the scooby

It feels like it'll just dive into the corners. It's a catch 22 for me with the torque vector system. In one hand, it's great for corners. Otherwise I turn it all off daily because it makes a mess of my rims with the brake dust that the system makes by braking the wheels to take corners better

Whereabouts do you live?

 

[captaindrp82]

Northern Virginia, just outside of Washington D.C.

 

[WesternSTi]

Take a trip down to Western NC one weekend... There's some excellent driving down there. It's also really fun to do it as a group if you have a Subie club in your area. The main of these excellent roads is of course, Tail of the Dragon (US129). 318 Curves, 11 miles.

 

[captaindrp82]

I've heard of that. Here I have the skyline drive, it's a pay trip to ride along the mountains into NC, heavily patrolled by park rangers though, and those dudes are worse than the cops, they can permanently impound yo shit. Like I said I go back to where I grew up in central PA, it's like canyon running on many of those back mountain roads.

 

[WesternSTi]

Yeah... It's federal land. No bueno. Lol. There's also the Blue Ridge Parkway up there somewhere. Not sure where, but I know it starts/ends in Virginia.

Just got word my Cobb access port is waiting for me at the house when I get home and the good folks at Perrin sent me an OTS map to compliment the intake...in about an hour, you can call me flash...or...re-flash lol

 

[captaindrp82]

Perrin map for 93 octane loaded and loving the ride to work this morning. Messed with the synonyms feature a bit, a little inconsistent, but I know it's me. But average #'s were about 260whp and as much as 350wt. Just messing around in my neighborhood, but that's my initial findings.

 

[captaindrp82]

^^^^Damn auto correct...not synonyms.....dyno feature lol

 

[Alin]

Sad to say but that dyno feature is very inaccurate. :lol:

I had ~550whp and ~600wtq when i went stage 2. :tard:

 

[captaindrp82]

Kinda figured, I felt that the whp might have been close, but thought the torque sounds too high.

 

[Alin]

Can you get us a log of the map? Gimme a few minutes to pull up the list that is required to log.

 

[captaindrp82]

Made the ass dyno happy..lol...smiling vertically and everything

 

[captaindrp82]

I can sure try when I get home. Meaning the Perrin map correct?

 

[Alin]

Yes the one you flashed yesterday.

 

[captaindrp82]

Ok, yeah. They emailed it to me and I saved it to my laptop which in turn the access port manager found and put into my map list. Now I'm new with the tuner so bear with my computer tard tendencies. But I'll try and share it.

 

[Alin]

If you could, can you log the following parameters...

? Air Fuel Ratio (AFR) (A/F Sens 1 Ratio)
? Boost (manifold relative pressure)
? Boost Target
? Calculated Load
? Closed Loop Fuel switch (C/L Status)
? Engine Speed (RPM)
? A/F Correction
? A/F Learned
? Injector Duty Cycle
? MAF Voltage
? Throttle Position
? Waste Gate Duty Cycle
? Feedback Knock

Do about 5-10 minutes normal driving and one WOT. When you do the WOT, it better be on a road where you are alone and have enough room to do it. Please be safe. Your main concern should be the screen for feedback knock on the accessport. Make sure it doesnt exceed 2. Preferably a 4th gear WOT.

Im assuming youve read the instruction manual and have enough knowledge on how to select the parameters and initiate the log. :tup:

Lets see what perrins map is all about!

 

[sacnvz]

I think [MENTION=3944]captaindrp82[/MENTION] is still testing from a few days ago. He left home and just kept driving! LOL

 

[Alin]

We cant blame him!!! :tard: :rofl: :tup:

 

[captaindrp82]

Sorry been raining, and it makes traffic really bad. I had a chance this morning to log some. The only way I can do WOT is in 6th. I slowed to 40 and put it in 64th going up hill and left it climb to full boost and a second chance I had was an uphill on ramp.
