1point3liter's Twin Turbo LSX FD

Jeff,
did you have any issues with false wheel speed readings, but only when not moving.
i seem to pickup some weird signals, but once i start rolling it's all good. I dont see any sensitivity adjustments.

Not when stationary, that's got to be interference with your wheel speed wires - I use shielded twisted pairs and have some weird jumps like that, but not when stationary.  Email AEM, there are sensitivity values for all the pickups but they were pretty well hidden in the v92 software - I think they're available in the v95 stuff but don't know where.

I have shielded twisted pairs per sensor too. It appears rock solid when rolling, no weird readings so i'm hoping a sensitivity adjustment will fix it.
yea, i have a call in to them already. they are looking at my log and giving me a call back. I couldn't find the sensitivity adjustments with v95 so must still be hidden.

Interesting.   My ProEFI was dead stable when stationary for the wheel sensors and I just used regular old wire run in the bundle with the main power leads up front.

Wonder why it's so sensitive on the AEM.

yea, that's interesting for sure. I'm impressed you had no issues with non-shielded wire.
hopefully i just need some sensitivity adjustments.

alright, big progress this weekend.

I have the car running on about 15-16psi.
It seems to be running great. I really like the Infinity system so far.

This afternoon I started setting up the boost control knob. After it's all configured, I think it'll really keep on the fly adjustments simple and similar to iboost with proefi.  Having the ability to adjust the solenoid duty cycles and bring in boost faster is super nice too.. my profec got the job done, but you couldn't really tune it to the car. I haven't messed with boost by gear yet, but I have gear detection working so theoretically I could start using it.

I decided to do something about my lack of fire extinguisher mount.
I was going to build a sakebomb type seat mount for it, but decided to just drill and tap 3 m6 holes in my strut tower bar. no extra weight, strong, simple, and quick.

I also decided to take about an inch off the height of my shifter. throws are noticeably shorter, looks better, and its not much notchier.

The rear feels more solid. So far no issues there. I notice there's a lot less noise coming from the rear of the car, less clunks etc.
The 3.08's are more fun than i thought they'd be. The car still feels like it has plenty of power down low and my gears are looooong now... 2nd rides out to just short of 100mph. kinda crazy.

I like all of the things.

Can you hit boost in 3rd at 50mph though?

sure. with naws

[Jordan Innovations]

Haha 100mph 2nd gear seems nuts.  I know my Camaro TR6060 first and second gear seem short as hell with 3.55's, I think 2nd is just over 60mph at 6500rpm?  3rd is definitely not good for 100mph.

Looking good.  How hard it is to grab the extinguisher behind you like that?

easy, I positioned the latches toward the front of the car and its slightly offset toward the driver's side.

haha yea.. kinda crazy for sure.  just checked my wheel speed data and I shifted to 3rd at 101mph.

3rd should run out to just over 130mph... my 60-130 times should be interesting.

Yeah I'm low enough to start in 3rd and just do the 1 shift to 4th, but you'll be starting in second and shifting to third lol.  Play with traction control?  Using fuel cut and ignition retard, and if so, what settings?  I haven't gotten much of an opportunity to play with mine since I'm still on 295 VentusTD's and have half the hp

not yet. absolutely no spin yet 2nd gear and up.. these tires hook up really well.
it'll spin when I turn the boost up. I may give it a try in first. anxious to test it.

I took the restrictor plate off the yellow dragon and strapped it to the dyno last night.
It's already making north of 700rw/700tq but it's not exactly street legal so keep it on the down low.
