hmmmm, you trigger one dual pulse window should be set to 3..... you are on 2.

since you are multicoil and hall sensors and no cas......fds are with a 3 pulse window


i stand to be corrected....

...looks familiar....


be sure to run rich...

and reset your boost activation...

and always keep an ear for knocks!!

How large is the bleed orfice???(the hole that vents to the atmosphere) If the bleed hole is too small then it will be the limiting factor in your boost control . The bleed should be big enough to let the boost vent without opening the wastegate(creep) The Soleniod then should be closed with no power on to be fail safe. The soleniod is then controlled to set boost pressure. Don't forget it not ony has to vent the air going to the wastgate but also the air already in the wastegate. Sometimes you need to put a restrictor in the line to the manifold to make the soleniod more sensitive. This does add to the activation time of the wastegate but as long as you don't go too small or the line is not too long,(if you need a restictor place it right near the soleniod on the manifold side) you should be o.k. I have had a look at how the Wolf boost control works and I think it could be better. Like having a maximum boost pressure set in psi for each 125 rpm and let the rest of the setup be kept within the control of the ecu.

The soleniod has a vent on one end with a little filter. If you have a standard boost control system did you place the diodes across the soleniod to increase the response of the soleniod. My guess is that your dynamic control of your turbo is not working either. It needs to be on at 2700rpm and the throttlebody does the rest.

ok. there is a set of little solenoids that manage if one or both turbos are working. This is the dynamic control it allows 1 or 2 turbos to work. It has a little filter on the end. The other solenoids for boost control and precharge are vented back to the inlet manifold and have no filter. If the Dynamic control of your turbo's doesn't work you wil only have 1 turbo running the primary one. Once the little black solenoid opens and you open the throttle at about 2700rpm enough vacuum is present on the line to the dynamic control to allow the second turbo to come online. If this doesn't happen I suspect that you would have low boost problems as the single turbo chokes off your motor! In the Wolf manual it states that diodes should be placed across the solenoids as the wolf has no BACK EMF protection(large voltage spike protection) P32 in the install manual.

P.S very complex beasty I prefer my TII with one turbo much simpler

You know what, maybe you maybe your soleniod is not opening at all. The solenoid needs to open to provide boost control above 7 psi. By default the system is designed to limit boost if the solenoid fails. Under the boost controller the solenoid should be open until about 6.5 psi and then close. This stops boost creep. My guess is that possibly the solenoid may be stuck or could you have a crook Aux output. As I said before they need to have a diode fitted across the solenoid(and have it the right way around) to protect the Wolf from damage in the generic version ...plugins are different they must have some form of inbuilt protection. Can you put a meter on the AUX output at the ecu and take it for a drive. If you see 12 Volts all the time your AUX output is faulty or configured wrong , or if you see 0Volts all the time you may have a wiring fault. It should be between say 3 and 9 volts and be varying with a change in duty cycle. I am not sure but I think the valve may even be 0 volts at startup and below 6.5psi to stop boost creep.

RotorMotor2, for a no load test it is too rich for a free rev you should see 14.5 to 15.0 some people say it should be leaner but for a rotary I wouldn't go leaner than 15.0 unless you are backing off. When I am tuning I run 14.5-14.7 and then I floor it to watch it for my accellerator pump setting you shouldn't go leaner if it does it will stumble. As you hit the gas you should aim for 12.2 at that instant then free rev running at 14.5 -15.0 on pump gas.
Thats what I think. What have the rest of you have to say???

P.S. RICH is safe!

Looks all a little rich to me.
When Steve Kan tuned my Wolf, he went mid 12's from the '0' psi transition point till about 5 psi, then mid 11's to 15 psi, after that low 11's.

Running in the 9's and 10's at anything under 20 psi you are just losing power...

49% load is too lean it should be around 13, 56% load should be around 12.7, 63% load should be around 12.3 you need to look at the 6500 rpm value that can cost you a engine. 70% load you need to be around 12.2, 77% load you need to be around 12.1,84% load you need to be around 12.0, 100% load you need to be around 11.7-11.5

BTW this is my opinion others may differ use you descression

too lean imho
