Re: Spark tuning
Actually i miss red the IAT table it was running on the high table.

Re: Spark tuning
few things along with that, but all those in my opinion make the car feel doughy.0081(2) wrote:What else is affected by turning it off??vlad01 wrote:hsv08 wrote:I have the same issue. And also burst knock is disabled. So keen to figure out what's going on too.
turn off RDSC. problem solved/
I would like to have some control of the tip in stuff tho
I'm the director of VSH (Vlad's Spec Holden), because HSV were doing it ass about.
Re: Spark tuning
here added a few items so you can test.

Thanks The1 Ill test it when the flooding in Sydney stops.The1 wrote:here added a few items so you can test.
You don't have any idea about where tip in stuff might be hiding do you?

Re: Spark tuning
I have been looking at the adaptive spark items and im not quite 100% sure i understand the tables and numbers in the correctly
Are the < > symbols meant to be read as less than and greater then in the 4 items defined or just used as a space.
The below scalars have table difference in the title, is there a table they refer to that has not yet been defined?
Adaptive Spark - Table Difference > Moves Toward Retard
Adaptive Spark - Table Difference > CAL Move Toward Advance
Adaptive Spark - Table Difference > Moves Toward Retard. Will this scalar will remove 6 degrees of timing from the main table after any temp corrections?
Adaptive Spark - Table Difference > CAL Move Toward Advance. Will this scalar keep adding 2.11 degrees until it has replaced the 6 degrees it has taken out from the move towards retard?
Adaptive Spark - RPM > CAL Move Toward Advance Table. Im reading this as if the RPM is greater then CAL move spark towards advance and im guessing at a rate of 2.11 as listed in the Adaptive Spark - Table Difference > CAL Move Toward Advance scalar ?
What is the CAL ? calculated?
Adaptive Spark - RPM < CAL Move Toward Advance Table. Im reading this like above, if the RPM is less than CAL (not sure what that is or what it means) increase spark ?

Re: Spark tuning
This is the Table Difference between Hi/Low Octane Spark Maps so you can basically set a default map, obviously the best would be to set it up to default to the High Octane map and setup the rest so it will retard to the low map when there is some knock, so that you are not getting a full effect from knock but only a small retard amount, i set mine up generally so it will move around within 3 degrees between high and low, beyond that it will just sit on the low table and knock will be used to further reduce spark, so EG: Retard item set at 4deg, Advance at 2deg Set your low octane table 3deg lower than the High Table, it will default to the High Octane Map.Adaptive Spark - Table Difference > Moves Toward Retard
Adaptive Spark - Table Difference > Move Toward Advance
This is to just set a range via RPM for when to use the High Octane table, being one condition that has to be met along with the above, it does vary between models greatly.Adaptive Spark - RPM > CAL Move Toward Advance Table
Adaptive Spark - RPM < CAL Move Toward Advance Table.
Sets the amount of Knock Retard before it will start moving toward the retard table. There are other scalars and tables that set the rate of move.Adaptive Spark - ESC > Moves Multiplier Toward Retard Table
0081(2) you can disable RSDC with "RDSC - Disable if Coolant < This" which i added i will have a look at the rest of it when time permits.
Re: Spark tuning
I was wondering what a few of those terms were aswell. Thanks
I found that by disabling tip in and setting enable speed to max (140ish) it had stopped my spark retarding to such low values when cracking the throttle.
It's also made the car feel a lot more responsive between throttle crack and changing gears.
I just now need to work on the above to get my car using the high octane map by default.

Re: Spark tuning
Thanks for that The1 ill give it a test on the weekend.
Re: Spark tuning
I can't check right now, but does "not equal to" make sense in the context?0081(2) wrote:I have been looking at the adaptive spark items and im not quite 100% sure i understand the tables and numbers in the correctly

Re: Spark tuning
back to math lol The end with the widest gap is greater, if it's like this <= means greater than or equal to. Being greater value on the right and smaller on the left.
