Topgunz - air to air upgrade

mikey1600 · 04-24-2018, 03:27 AM

TL;DR - made 440rwhp on 93 US fuel equivalent with MAF's maxed out (UpRev).

So not bad news from me guys, finally got my limp mode thing sorted out, it was infact the flywheel as suspected, so if it ever happens to anyone else, car would only rev to like 3k, ran like a complete dog, timing was stuck on 25 degrees.

Now the good news, finally got word my car is starting to be tuned, almost finished so should get it back this week (public holiday tomorrow here in Australia for ANZAC day so hopefully Thurs/Fri). Car was making around 330rwkw (about 440rwhp) on 98 RON Pump fuel, about equiv to your 93 when the MAF's maxed out, was previously UpRev tuned so had to stick with the same guys to try work out what the limp mode was. Don't have a dyno sheet yet, will try get one when I pick it up.

I'll be going ahead with the UpRev GT Maf's and switching to E85 + final tune when they arrive. Will keep everyone posted in the coming weeks, this gives everyone else the other option as I'm not sure if anyone else is still running UpRev with this kit + other mods.

Why not just run ecutek?

See previous posts in the thread, last thing I'm wanting to do is try switch to a different tuning software/tuner when the cars been in limp mode for so long and hadn't been tuned at all with all the new changes, SC upgrade, injectors, pump, a2a kit, return fuel system etc..

I don't think any of the boosted guys are running UpRev? I ran UpRev for my NA tune, but all fingers pointed to transitioning to Ecutek when I transitioned to forced induction. Given the level of experience of the guys tuning our cars (Seb and Eugene), you could easily find a very solid, relatively drive-able starting tune with Ecutek, with the second revision most likely being daily drive-able. The UpRev MAFs won't function with Ecutek, to my knowledge.

Good luck with everything man!

Not a true statement. There are a lot of guys, myself included, boosted running UpRev. I haven’t updated my tune but from what I hear the updated simplified timing for UpRev is pretty legit. There’s still a lot of benefit from going to Ecutek but not as much as it used to be if you already have UpRev.

I stand corrected, I'm sorry about that!
