Clarkey Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 My car has been single now for about 11 months. And it's taken quite awhile to get it into the state that it is now. Today was the last thing that needed to be done. Go and visit Ian C for E-Manage mapping. Despite me turning up 3hrs 30 minutes late! Should've been arrived @ 10. Didn't arrive till 13.30. Despite my Sat-Nav getting me lost - because Ian's street doesn't exist in my maps! We made good mapping time - the EM was wired in good, so all Ian had to do was plug himself in .. typing on his laptop wearing his det-cans while doing some runs All finished @ 17.30. Please, a big round of applause for Ian C! - I'm so chuffed. I can now start enjoying the car If you're in need of a E-Manage - then Ian's your man. The EM's are a remarkable abit of kit. I think it's also great that the UK supra community has great competancy - in mapping, turbo installs, servicing and tuning. Ian, you're a star mate! Very, Very much apprieciated!

bromy Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 Good stuff Christian, give us some details injectors, boost level, does a great job Ian dosent he Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TLicense Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 Yup! I'm aiming to get there fairly early, but will more realisticly be there about 11ish. So any time after then. Cheers mate! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarkey Posted June 24, 2006 Author Share Posted June 24, 2006 Good stuff Christian, give us some details injectors, boost level, does a great job Ian dosent he He does indeed to a great job! - We should clone him Injectors are 550's running at @ 40psi. Boost is controlled via my ebc .. 4 settings .. from 1.1 Bar to 1.37 bar on my ebc gauge. Though - Ian reported the boost to be 1.35 bar on the EM .. and the Defi gauges reported just under 1.4 Bar. Duty cycle at 1.1 bar of boost was 70 % duty cycle. Can't remember offhand - on the max boost. Ian will tell us. And with NO det! Around any of the RPM ranges, AFRs, boost levels. Well chuffed .. It's like getting into a single turbo Supra - that I've never driven before! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark was giving the car a full service, fuel line, fit my new DBA brakes, and usual checks & adjustments. It's nice to able to stop now! Now, I think I've just abit of bodykwork to do .. Toyota OEM skirts .. My alloys refirbed & polished The front & wings re-sprayed to rid myself of the stop-chips, Paint my door-handles - red instead of pink! Job done! A sleeper! Saw your motor too - the conversion looks like it's coming on well! Nice looking motors the Aristo. Never seen one up close. Certainly a sleeper!

Clarkey Posted June 24, 2006 Author Share Posted June 24, 2006 Yup .. very happy indeed. I think moreso - that I think all the performance bits are now done - for my current setup. Now, it's easy stuff. Bit of paint, bit of polishing and side skirts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BURT Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 sweet!! aint it great! well done for ya bud, and i bet you now think its worth the wait, i coul;dnt believe the diff' when i got mine mapped, BOOOOM she went like a rocket and sounds like a jump jet:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pig Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 Im really suprised you can run that boost on those injectors! Are the new or just cleaned?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarkey Posted June 25, 2006 Author Share Posted June 25, 2006 I can run that boost because - I have an Aeromotive FPR. I've raised the fuel pressure from 36psi stock .. to 40psi. Otherwise, you're right - it would be 1.1 bar maximum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pig Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 I didnt know that made such a difference! Well done though. You must be chuffed. When my car is cold i dont have the lag problem and the speed that it spools up is superb! Glad you finished. 1 thing to say...... I bet you will buy something else soon!

The complete driving experience has changed from the SAFC to upgrading the EM. Not talking about power - but the whole setup and general of running of the car .. is so much smoother.

When my car is cold i dont have the lag problem and the speed that it spools up is superb! Glad you finished. 1 thing to say...... I bet you will buy something else soon! For sure, the advice from the techies - was you can increase the pressure .. but don't go mad with it. Hence - why I only increased mine by 4psi. You might be able to increase it abit more - but that would throw Ian's map out of sync as it's mapped to 40psi. And I didn't want to go silly with the pressure. As like everything, there is a limit. I know what you mean - Must resist! Going to sort the exterior of the car out. But keep it stock looking. As I've always wanted a fast road car - but I wanted it to be a sleeper.

Pig Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 Same with me. My exterior is completly std. Apart from the exhaust Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
