How much boost are you running? Ahmed usually puts a boost cut on his chips

Mark Shead

You realy need the map looking at as you have a diff inlet manifold and a 4wd turbo so most likely the chip was not mapped for this,
If it was then look at the fuel pump flow and volts and also check the sensors.

what do you propose be adjusted to change the rich/lean situation?

and wot boost did it get up to befor it cut out as to start with i would have the boost set to standerd

fostersice

iTrader: (1)

I have adjusted the -31 actuator and drove it down the road and that has seemed to stop the cutting out

I have just fitted the fuel reg

That was the idea behind booking it in to have it set up on the dyno

but all they wanted to do it sell me a stand alone system

So tomorrow I'm going to take it to work and get then to set up the cad for me if they can lol

Right first things first
JOE GSMOTORSPORTS
you are by far the best person I now
at working on a cosworth
and I will never let anyone else nere my car ever again apart from you

TOP GUY
TOP WORK MENS SHIP
this guy can be trusted to get it done and done right

He went though everything
set the fuel reg
then the -31 actuator
then the co2
then the dizzy and timing
then new plugs
set the low boost

And she shit the life out of me on the way home
I've got a mk2 RS FOCUS as a demo car at work this will eat it up and shit it out now

I am now going to change from l1 ecu to L6 and joe is going to have a play with the chip for me


As for the other place it was REDLINE TUNING
I called then asking for the car to be set up and dyno'd
as the car has just been built with all new parts and had just been fitted
so would need tuning to the engine

Ok booked me in did a run sorry you need new engine loom
and stand alone management as you loom is fualty and you ecu maybe as well

So after spending a loot on having her rewired I call the guy who wired her and had her tested nothing wrong

I'm not going to slag them off
£110 to tell me I need to spend £1500 to sort my car

and joe GS MOTORSPORTS
1day and a hell of a lot less and it has md shitting my self everytime I hit the pedal

He is the man

I KNOW WHO IM SENDING FRIENDS TOO TO HAVE THERE CARS DONE!!!
joe all day long.

Really can't wait to get it back to him now to make her faster
as he only set her up on low boost lol
and still it was 8-) all the way home
