Mine will be ready hopefully by the end of the weekend. Weather, work, and illness has kept me from getting it done as I wanted to.

 

So essentially I'll need to dial it back to stock boost . What information will you be looking for? Data logs on normal operation, cruising, high RPM rips? What can we as the test group do for you to help?

 

Are you replacing a modified ECU? If it's stock, you should be fine doing whatever you were before, since it's essentially the same code.

Datalogs of all conditions would be extremely useful, as it helps me map out the AFM values to corresponding data (rpm, boost, temps, etc).

My biggest hangups right now are:

1) fixing save support
2) fixing the packet size problem, by reducing the command lengths (this is why saving is currently not enabled)
3) lacking the conversion from the ECU PW -> actual duration

 

N344 rom dumps emailed

 

Yeah got the dumps in the e-mail hIGGI, i'll check em out and see how it looks.

 

Been a while since an update....

In any event, the new boards are all hashed out and work great. They're much easier to deal with than the big bulky boards. It took a little while of troubleshooting to narrow down a few ROM corruption problems due to the signal lines flapping on power downs, but i've got all of those isolated now and the boards are pretty much rock solid at this point. Haven't had a whole lot of feedback yet from the older style boards that were sent out, so I haven't been able to make a whole lot of progress on the software. Hopefully, that'll be happening in the near future.

 

Hey, i am still hoping you would have board for testing for me

 

ditto..
at this point is probably better to get me on the new boards, and by the way, i am tuning the s4 turbo this week... finally.

 

My S4 NA is 100% stock and functional if you need a guinea pig for more testing. I also have a S4 T2 almost ready to go if you need a tester for that. Its stock turbo but has the RB 3 inch exhaust so I'd love to be able to dial the timing back until we can get bigger injectors or other methods of control on it.

 

I have a 100% stock S5 NA that I can use for testing. I drive it back and forth to work so I imagine a daily driven car would be gold for a testing situation like this. I do have a back up car if something goes wrong though.

 

You haven't received anything yet!? Should've gotten them a long, long time ago...

I'll be trying to get you one of the new boards once I get the next batch of them in. I'll keep you in the loop via e-mail.


I haven't tested at all with an NA ECU yet. The boards should fit without an issue, and I should be able to slap the ROM together fairly quickly.



I've got a S5 ECU here on hand, but I haven't even begun boards for the S5's yet, so they're a little down the line still. I was hoping to have the S4's up and running before the S5 (as the S5 is a LOT more code).

 

I have 3 N326 ECUs on hand so I can send you one, and still DD the car in the mean-time if you'd like to do some testing.

 

If you want to send one over, shoot me a PM. If you can shoot me an image of the digital board (the one with the EPROMs on it), that'd be helpful in the interim.

 

My main s4 ecu went up in smoke. Working to see if its saveable
The replacement does not run the bac or cold start and misfire s on cold start on anything more the 1/4 throttle once warm is fine. Trying to see if its an issue with this ecu or if I have another issue before I drop the standalone stuff in it.

 

Did you go from a N332 to a N333? Need to add remove resistor pack. This was my problem...

 

Both ECU's will work fine with a resistor pack, so long a the harness and injectors match, the ECU doesn't care.

So, if you have low impedance injectors, you must have the corresponding harness with the resistor pack (or wire them in manually). High impedance require no resistors. Either ECU can run them so long it seems the appropriate resistance.

 

the last time we spoke you were going to give me the tracking info on it so i can claim it as lost if need be.

 

Weird, we must be missing some PM's. I checked to see if it was part of the group that got returned back when a bunch got wet, but it wasn't ever returned. I don't recall which address they went to though at the time, so that might have been the issue. PM me your current info and I'll get one of the new boards sent out.

 

Wish it were the case. Both are n332. Both have a resistor burnt out(open circuit) at position 961.

In a 87 tII where is connector FEM-02? What does it connect to. Wiring shows coming off 3D b/r that goes to this connector and disapears in the diagram I am looking at. Hope to find this issue repair this resistor and drive my car again properly

 

Last time I checked, I didn't find any info on ecu chipping but I'm pretty excited about this.

I was one of the few that helped test an NVSRAM board similar to yours on my old SOHC 240sx which worked the same if not better than the Ostrich 2.0 that I was using before. Ran 18psi daily on a stock block ka24e too. Here's an old video of the working board, excuse the poor quality
I would be more than willing to help test once you start getting the S5 stuff going. I have a willem dual burner and can smd solder if needed.

 

interesting

i got plenty of stock ECUs but no cars to test this in...

 

It's still going -- just slowly. Haven't had a whole lot of feedback to work with, so things have been slow going. I have most of the initial codebase all cleaned up and in a position where I'm "OK" with it and I've got most of the odd hardware things figured out as well.

 

i would be glad to give some feedback, if i could get some hardware..

 

Same here, i have been saying that for months and i am still ready...

 

i dont wanna harp on the guy, but its been 8 months... since i let him know i still hadnt got any parts yet at this point id' be glad to get my 150 back and move on.. at the end of the day he'll be my only hope if/when i run into a problem, and i can't wait a year for a fix.

tomorrow will be one year that we set out on doing this... other ppl got stuff
