RTLS1 Real Time Tuning on P59

Post by slowtahoe »

I recently received the RTLS1 daughter board from kojab and installed it on a spare P59 I had. I'm currently using it to tune my Tahoe with a 415ci stroker.
I've just recently added a Vortech supercharger to it and I'm currently using bubba2533's BoostOS v2.1 (viewtopic.php?f=42&t=7482#p109790)

Will soon be updating to his BoostOS v3 (https://www.patreon.com/turbo_v6/posts) Well worth the $5 IMO.

This thing logs extremely fast. Well over 100hz and due to this I quickly discovered that the wideband I am using is quite slow. Calculated around 7hz from the RTLS1 logs pictured below. The software allows for two cursor positions so you can mark a beginning and end point to compare. Shown below I placed the left (red) cursor at the beginning of one of the wideband steps and placed the right (blue) cursor at the end of the same step. From there I am able to see how long the step took based on the Seconds Counter data. Which looks to be about 150ms or 6.6hz.

Here are some pictures from the installation. Bubba2533 has a good video of the install on his YouTube channel. (https://youtu.be/P3lVT25JPAc)

First I cleaned out the solder from all the test pad holes on the P59 main board.

Then I marked and milled out the square hole for the RJ45 Ethernet connector on the daughter board as well as milled a clearance for the daughter board header pins.

Next I double checked fitment, removed the flash chip from the P59 board and soldered the daughter board header to the P59 board.

Finished product.

Here is a short playback of a log. Notice the 'X' cursor moving around the cells to the right of the screen. These cells represent the table that is selected for view. In this case I have the VE table up. While logging you are able to hit keys on the keyboard to adjust the red highlighted cell up or down by a defined amount. Example: 0.5 per key press.

The line graph on the left just represents the VE tables RPM axis.

Glad I could help.

It's really interesting to see the wideband only update at 7hz. What model is it?

Its an AEM 30-4110.
Currently looking to upgrade to the AEM X-series. They claim to be the "fastest" on the market but won't post how fast "fastest" is :lol:
