Hondata

hello

i have tuned a EP3 K20 european Civic with turbo.

Now my Problem is, that i cannot adjust the ignition. when i datalog the ignition i have at full boost (11psi) in vtec not enough advanced ingnition.
When i change in the vtec ignition map it and add 5 degrees to the splitting so at the next test drive i have the same ignition.
clear, i upload first the new calibration.
what make i wrong?

regards

Make sure you are editing the correct cam angle map. There are 6 separae High cam ignition maps.

i do this

first vtec map ingition



add 5 degrees



when i do this i upload the new map but at the ignition nothing changing??!!

You must make sure you are changing the High cam map for the cam angle the engine is running at the time you are seeing the need for a change.

i dont understand. i change the ignition at the vtec map. you see at 12 psi for example from 16 to 21. so 5 degrees more.
and when i do a test drive, the ign is real at 17 -19 degree at datalogging.

Please watch some of the training videos at http://www.hondata.com/techk-protraining.html

There is more than one map for ignition when vtec is engaged. There is one for 0,10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 degrees fo cam angle. If you are not modifying the correct table you will not see a change when the car is running because it is not reading from that table.

sounds to me like you should stick to B series tuning. you shouldnt be tuning other peoples big dollar cars when you dont even know what your doing , im astounded to be quite frank.

spunkster has easily and more than once answered your question , and it seems to go in one ear and out the other. hard to help those who cant be helped.

i have two prblems. first my bad english and second that i tuned only hondas until year 2000.
it is easier unterstand things in the language wich spoken all day.

sorry

understandable. but why would you take on such a task if you werent sure what your doing is what i dont understand. what if his engine packed it in cause of this know what i mean. specially a turbo car.

he told you that twice , lol , his first 2 posts. im sorry man no insults intended , just dont wanna see anyone have K series engine soup for a bottom end , haha. you can also make a base ignition map to start with by going to EDIT , create boost tables , click the dot on retard ignition____per lb of boost. put 1 in the blank if its a stock engine , click ok. it will adjust the map for you. than you can tune from there.

i have tuned it now. when i know what i must do, it is easy . thanks for the informations.
