Re: powerdyne setup

You need to tune for 42lb injectors, Hptuners would be good for fuel and timing.

without hptune..... hmm..

which setup should be fine with stock engine?

Re: powerdyne setup

With stock engine running it like you do should be fine. But might look at seeing if your getting any knock in the hotter months.

fmu won't do jack **** for reducing timing. fmu is like using a vcr. you can buy one, it would be cheap... but you really dont want it. oh but you can't rewind with an fmu.

Woojong... holy cow. I remember you from way way back then. You still have your Firebird that you converted to a TA body?

FMU is good if you only have stock injectors and they are usually good for up to 9-10psi of boost.

If you have 42 injectors and HP Tuner you don't need FMU anymore.

Good to see you are still around too brother.

Depends on the FMU and the disc/spring inside it..

FMU that most of us have is 6:1 which is still OK for 9psi.

Do you have anything to monitor KR?

Re: powerdyne setup

Im using 36lb gtp injectors with no FMU. I would recommend a wideband 02 and fuel pressure gauges to keep an eye on your motor.

Re: powerdyne setup

Woo, a wideband and fuel pressure gauge is a must to watch your A/F and then maybe a Aeroforce scan gauage to watch KR in hottor months. But you have been running it for years like it is so your probably alright where your at, but like said the above would be good to monitor your engine better.

Re: powerdyne setup

It also depends on the type of gas there is in Korea. Do you guys have high octane fuel? 92 and above is the most ideal and you don't to retard your timing too much.

If I remember in 2003 you said that gas in Korea is not that good and ideal to boosted cars.

Ill have to check aeroforce gauge this out for my self, it gets too damn hot here in Houston.

Re: powerdyne setup

Not to thread jack, but is there anything that I could read to gain some more knowledge on PD's on our cars? Im building a motor and will be running a PD, as some of you already know.

Re: powerdyne setup

I would just look at previous threads should be enough to read through.
