Ok, I’m prepared to be swamped with questions on this one hah.
To start off with, I know there are 1-2 more people testing this as well, so if they would like to chime in, that would be super.
Background Info:
Most of you know Jeff has been doing 1G chips for a while now. Basically mods like TMO, but in his own coding...
I read this post here a couple months back about Jeff wanting 2G people to test his 2G EPROM. I wanted to try! He shot me an email and asked me some questions about my car, what mods I had and such, and told me he'd send a socket and a chip to try out.
Socketing an ECU ended up being a little harder than I thought it would be (Hey, you gotta be careful!). I missed a trace, and talked to Jeff about it. He was kind enough to send me HIS 95 EPROM to get my car back on the road.. What a great guy! Sure enough, when he got my ECU, I had missed 1 trace on the top.
With a couple of small errors here and there, and figuring out some things, we’ve come to a good test chip configuration.
My current chip:
7600 rev, 5500 stutter
650cc correction
no fuel cut
had base fuel pressure set at 38psi for this chip (was accidental)
Waiting to be installed:
7600 rev / 5500 stutter and a 3step (no lift to shift) 6000
No fuel cut
650 correction
MAS hacks for HCs removed
KNOCK GAUGE!
fuel pressure set for 43psi instead
This chip will be installed into my ECU today for testing!
Tuning: (View my mods list in sig first)
-----------------
Previous AFC settings:
Lows in the -20s, Highs on -39 (1600 EGTs)
Currently I sit at - 10s on the highs (due to the base fuel pressure set low on the current chip I run). My timing is 17 degrees at the top of my pulls.
Just initial tuning after this chip made a noticeable difference. My car idles a bit smoother, the WOT pulls are definitely different. I was previously getting up to 23 degrees of timing on my pulls, icky for pump gas. Corrected Injector size and dead time leaves me pulling 17 degrees! The power is back!
No chip.. I ran 20psi, and sure, for a 3055, it felt ok. I got use to it and wasn’t super impressed anymore.
Currently with the chip I use, I'm running 23psi, and IT PULLS. Even set for 20psi made a noticeable difference from stock to hacked.
I can build 16psi on this FP 3055 sitting still
A bit much, and Im sure to expload the trans upon launch attempt! I'll be getting the stutter set lower.
Conclusions:
I could really sit here and type all day about what I’ve done with this chip so far, but I just mainly wanted to break some things down for the community here and get the word out.. Jeffs 2G CHIPS ROCK!!
Please feel free to ask any questions!!
