ALDL on Kalmaker tune

[Sweet_Wagon Profile]

Hoping someone can shed some light on this, I have a VS V6 that's had an L67 conversion.

The car is going in for a Kalmaker MAP tune this week, and I'm assuming that i will longer be able to datalog through TunerPro as i currently do? Will i even be able to view DTC's and/or clear them?

And i guess the final question is, has anyone here developed a TunerPro definition file that will suit this application?

Cheers,
Brett.

To add, I believe it will be tuned on the W45 code

There is a W40 ADX here .. viewtopic.php?f=10&t=29

I think the data stream for W45 might be similar, just with some MAP related things added (the W55 ADX is almost identical to stock), but you should be able to setup an ADX to log it fairly easily.

DTC function is same as factory except you will have MAP related DTCs

Thanks VL, ill certainly give the W40 ADX a go. For a beginner like me, where is best to learn how to start de-coding the data stream?
Im keen to start playing some TunerPro and creating some custom ADX's, but not sure where to start. I have a basic understanding of Hex which appears to be what is used?

Good to know, thanks ejukated

First thing is to get a data log, hopefully the W40 adx connects without any message sizes. If not can work it out using the flashtool and sending commands to the PCM.

Once you have it connecting can then see what works and what does not. Can figure out the major things like RPM, temperatures, MAP etc Flags are the hard part.

If its like other Kalmaker releases it might be a similar data stream to standard, just with MAP.

Looks like for the most part, the "$51 VS V6 Engine and Trans v1.11 WB Innovate" ADX works with W45

Looking at the ADX, it looks like someone has already added 'MAP for KAL' value, but it seems to be reading just over 50kpa at atmosphere pressure?

Not sure if its been configured for a 2 bar MAP sensor, anyone know the correct equation would be?

This is what I use on a L67 with 2 bar Map sensor. X * 0.7844 + 11.0

Thanks, Ill give that a try, I also got this from an earlier thread for PSI conversion

The easiest option (and the best for the least rounding error) is what Jayme suggested. If you want to simplify it the calc is...
2 Bar = (X * 0.113)-13.54
3 Bar = (X * 0.177)-14.381
