I'm not saying to try this, but I've heard some Aftermarket audio head units run on Windows CE. If that is the case, they likely have USB and a harddrive for installing software. Someone should try...

What grade fuel to you have in Canada? I wonder if its any better than what I have here in the US. That could be a factor for more advancement in your timing. We have special (crap) fuel here in...

From what I believe ~75 would cause mine to ping at high RPMs. I have a feeling your ECU may have been retarding the timing back to 70-71 levels which is why your timing is just the same between...

Megan; yours and my Ignition timing maps are similar. I imagine since you have some mods you were able to get ~71 tuned in at higher rpm. In stock form, I was pinging at 70 so I lowered it to 68. ...

After giving the car about ~50 miles or so to settle and re-learn itself, I have to say that the ~3000 rpm area feels great but still might need a little work. Its strong and smooth at WOT, but...

Folks,

Before installing the RadioShack Mini-amp, I took it apart and put a 10uF capacitor in-line with the input's center. This removes the MiniAmp from interfering with the Engine's sensor, as...

I'd say its as acurate as a manufactored sensor can be. I'm sure Nissan wanted to keep it very safe as well as environmentally healthy. Here is what the stock fuel target map tries to push for.

Getting back to DYI UpRev tuning,

Does anybody know what the Ignition map numbers actually mean? I know it is a temperature at a point ATDC, but like what? 10s or 100s of degrees F or C?

I would think that if the ECu sees 17:1 at WOT it would probably throw a check engine light for not being able to hit the targets by ~5 points. What device are you seeing the 17:1 AFR through again?...
