First of all a big thanks to Claudio and Rob at Perfect Touch, it was good to meet you guys  Oh and I guess you lot want to know if it happened and what the results are  Well yes and no, Rob worked hard to map the standard ECU and got most of it done but he needed much more time to perfect it. Adding to the map in one point takes it out at another so its a very time consuming job. Live mapping is possible on the coupe and after Rob has got it 100% sorted it will be done. I think I ended up with a semi live map and a unichip but hey I dont care what its using, its the results that matter. I'm not at home at the moment so I cant post up my graphs but the car drives completely differently, 6th gear now feels like 4th and there is a HOOOOOOGE amount of torque available from 2500 up to 6000rpm where it starts to drop off (superspool hybrid) Rob gave me a choice of BHP or Torque and as I want a very driveable car I went for torque so the peak power is just over 300bhp and the torque is around 280Lbs ft (dont have the graphs on me so thats just off memory). Anyway, I can fully recommend Perfect Touch for mapping, great guys and a great job

great results Jimbo!!  sounds like another good result at Perfect Touch, live mapping AND Unichip!! So how come you still have to use the Unichip then? Joe

Ross, Last year it made 276bhp and 250lbs torque, since then its had C&B cams and from the first run at Perfect Touch it looks like they added 13bhp. You'll see the graphs when I post them up next week. I forgot to mention, there was a certain well known coupe already there, Im not going to spoil anyones fun but its going to be seriously quick when its finished.... or at least it was until I hid my bacon sandwich wrapper in the inlet piping

Isnt cams usually rated at 10bhp and 15lb/ft? which means you probably had like 290bhp and 265lb/ft before live mapping which isnt finished yet.
Looking like Live Mapping might be useful!!!

Joe, They couldn't get into one certain part of the code and they were running out of time fast so I think they opted for the unichip as they knew it could be done before the shop closed. Very similar temps to last years rolling road and Perfect Touch have a 100mph fan so probably similar to Powerstation. Phil, yep Im ready all bar a brake fluid change and maybe some shorter springs at the front

Do they have a way to work on this problem "offline", or are they going to have another go when the next coop rolls in?

You obviously haven't tried one of those burger van bacon sandwiches then !!! Not sure if the bun was still frozen or just 5 years past its sell by date

4 hours tuning time? 4 * £110/hour....... £440 (+vat)?
£500 for livemapping or £700 for a unichip with boost module? Im so confused!!!

Jimbo (and Begbie/Barnacle if your reading) would they be able to do 16vt live maps now then? do the 20vt and 16vt ECUs differ that greatly?
This may be a great asset to 16vt owners as we have been previously stuck using plug and play chips or forking out a fortune on a compatible piggy back unit.

or you spend 70euro on an eprom writer and a few chips and then you start by yourself (for 150euro you can do realtime map editing using a notebook in your car) A wideband AFR and a EGT would be helpful (that's an extra 400euro - enabling logging as well) Then you get your PC, TunerPro RT and some maps off JMA, or myself or others and get down to business if you're interested I'm sure JMA or I could elaborate. Anyways you don't start afresh, the existing maps are a good starting point and you choose what to change and howmuch. V.

Do your maths mr. , if you are OK with computers, the proposed solution runs cheaper and you have the extra bonus of tuning your car to your hearts content.  Mind you, I'd be very happy if it were 5-6 or a dozen of us working on maps and exchanging BIN files. This way you could get a great custom map much quicker than working alone... V.

Hehe i'm good with computers but i'm also lazy. I just know i'll miss some important figure or all be in such a hurry to try things that i wont check my inputs and blow up the engine.

Just to keep you guys up to date on the progress of this, Im not going to keep anything from you I've been having some problems  The car cuts out at idle, there is no specific time on this and it doesnt happen at a particular temperature either, always at idle and whenever it wants to, it just just cuts out. I called perfect Touch today and they are going to look at for me but it looks like Im traveling another 3hrs each way to get it sorted

A pity we cant just upload everything in the ECU to a bin file and send it them and the software pickout the problem bits or have some form of time stamp on them as well so we can highlight the areas of concern as i bet it will be fine on rolling day as always Hope it goes well and sorts it self out for you Jimbo. Has an ECU reset had no effect as mine has randomly done it in the past until the ecu as cleared.

Jimbo - you won't be able to stop it - all of your sensors are fine. What we think is happening is that the ECU "learning" function is doing what it's supposed to do - its taking signals and adjusting itself according to what it THINKS is happening. In my case (and yours by the sound of it) it reckons its running rich at some point in the rev range, and it just keeps on pulling more and more fuel out. This is OK when its on throtlle and closed loop, as the lambda circuit adjusts the fuelling, but at tickover, it reverts to a base map, and if its pulled loads of fuel out, it will struggle to run. On my car, when I pull to a standstill, the revs drop to about 1,000-1,200 for a second or two, then drop either to about 600 or more often, to zero. Trying to stop the car stalling is quite a task - just touching the throttle won't do it (in fact trying to increase the revs usually encourages the stall) I have to "tickle" the throttle pedal with several very soft stabs and usually I can get the revs back up. Its worst when trying to pull away - I often spend two or three seconds just trying to get the revs up enough to let me lift the clutch. However - be VERY wary of an ECU reset - it will almost certainly run very rich for a day or so, until the ECU "learns" all over again. After cutting out about 15 times on the way to work this morning, I resest the ECU and my AFR meter was showing full rich for most of the 40 mile journey home. The car won't take much boost - it will hesitate and splutter at anything over 1 bar - just too much fuel going in. Tomorrow, the car will be fine, as the ECU will have made its adjustments and will be close to what Perfect Touch intended. By Wednesday evenning, it will be starting to get fluffy in traffic, and by Friday morning it will be undriveable again I've now had NINE mapping sessions on my car since fitting the 16VT injectors - all have been good for a few days, then they've slipped as the ECU screws the base maps. I've now travelled 2,500 miles, used about 100 gallons of fuel and spent about two grand on rolling road bills. As some people have said - I should have gone straight for a Motec I'm desperately hoping that Flea's setup is the final answer - fingers crossed. Let me know how you get on Jimbo - sounds like we're in very similar situations

Hmmm, I dont have the pulling away problems or any other type of problem really, it doesn't even hunt for an idle,it stays rock solid at 750rpm. I pull up to the lights or what ever, dip the clutch and stick it in neutral, it could do it straight away or it might wait 2 minutes or so but it just stops followed by a few clicks of a relay in the passenger foot well. I cant see why my ECU should be trying to pull out fuel, Im on standard injectors and the map Rob did for the ECU wont be too different from a GTECII chip, I think it might be the unichip messing up the idle map or it just needs a faster idle speed setting up. Oh and im sure Flea's car cuts out too

If it reverts to a base map for idling is there no way that this can be locked so it cant be altred by the ecu at all?
If perfect touch can get this live mapping done spot on then would there be benefit for people to go to wideband lambdas if the ecu can pull the data and use it on the fly?

Please let me know the results as mines booked in on the 19th of december for either the unichip or live map.All though i havent got anything to loose at the moment as mines cutting out on idle now.Theres no routine to it sometimes when you pull up to lights it cuts out and the revs fluctuate on other times and then it cuts out.this is since i had the novitec chip and uprated fuel pump.I have altered the cable to idle at 1500 rpm at the mo thats the only way i can stop it cutting out.

If it does only use the Lambda then i would imagine it should be fine unless the lambda reading is way off or its not controlling the injector pulses properly and making them shorter than they should be??

Jimbo, yours is a weird one, as you say your map should not be much different to a Gtec/novitec map, and really the idle map isnt affected either. Combined with runnign standard injectors, and there is no reason why your car should run any different to intended on idle, therefore you should not be getting any significant compensation of your other fuelling maps. The problem with open loop adjustment really should only apply to using larger injectors and the standard ECU with/without a Unichip. If you compensate for pulse width and timing ,there is no reason why your lambda values and variability should be near normal even with larger injectors, so no reason why any significant adjusmtent shoudl take place! On a funny note,..after Flea mentioned his stalling problem a month ago, I was laughing by saying that it never happens to me!,..that night talking to a friend in the car, after 10 minutes..bang the car just stalled, no reason, was rock solid ,then died like taking the keys out!!..oh...how I laughed!  joe

Hi, It should be like Joe explained. I changed OE injectors last weekend and since that my EGT has been as solid as a rock with the readings I saw Sunday, I can see them also today. ECU hasn't changed anything . - Jari -

Do Perfect Touch keep a copy of their maps? Perhaps they could post you out an ecu with a higher idle?
Jimbo, what was your idle set at? I'm booked in on Saturday, should I ask for idle to be set above 800rpm?

Im thinking of having this done as well,so i rung them up to find out more and they told me they can now run bigger injectors from the standard ecu, so i was thinking rather than pay to have it mapped then to decide to change injectors later, then pay more to map again to do it all at the same time, does this sound sensible? If so what are the best value injectors to go for, what do most people use??

they must be high impedance in the range of 12-16.2ohms.
They must also match the fuel rail so must be a Bosch/Lucus/Weber type top feed fitment
And the obvious question is:- do 16VT injectors meet all these requirements? (I'm pretty sure they meet the last bit, otherwise they wouldn't fit)

cheers for the advice JohnS, i just thought alot of people used 16v injectors as they are better flow, all this technical stuff goes over my head, i just want to make my car the best with the mods i have, and if i can add alittle some thing to optimise this ie injectors then i would. If there not going to make a difference then i wont bother, perhaps i will use the money to buy a new larger turbo as i have super spool at the mo, but started to get bored with it. Again turbos there is so many with gt on or R's on the end which one do i go for which will still give me good spool up.

I wouldn't change from the stock injectors unless I had to personally
I wholeheartedly agree.
I spent a couple of weeks back on stock injectors after my boost controller failed and Perfect Touch decided the safest way was to revert almsot top standard.
The car was significantly smoother to drive and behaved perfectly in traffic. I could even pull away and change into second or even third gear without touching the throttle. It would even pull itself up modest hills at tickover.
Maybe Matt's twin injector setup is the way forward. standard 330cc injectors for most of the time, with second units kicking in when load dictates

This would not be cheap i imagine as it would mean the unichip would have to really be able to control them at the higher boost levels as well as getting the inlet manifold machined to fit them perfectly snug?

*sigh*
he unichip is not the be all and end all tool for the coupe's! If you were going to control 10 injectors you would certainly not use a unichip to control them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We would be talking standalone ECU, not some crappy piggy back box to do the injection.

it's strange that everyone is wetting their pants about live mapping when there still seems to be some problems

......just still be cautious chaps.... UNTIL a coop can run on the OEM ECU, witout a fcuk-box in between altering the signals, you WILL always have problems, as the OEM ECU is very very smart at adapting to out of tolerance values, ALL the uni-chip can EVER do is alter a known quantity of signals, NOT understand how to run the engine, that is what the ECU does even, I am looking cautiously at the moment, as the coop is very much in its infancy with live mapping of the ECU, this just takes time, guinea pigs & some honest R&D on the rolling road ....remember the days when people reckoned it would take "specialists" to wire in Jap Apexi stuff to our cars ? Always seemed out of the realm, now they are as common as busted bottom ends

After getting my new clutch installed by Barbz yesterday (thanks mate) and racking up a few hundred miles to bed it in, I took a trip to Perfect Touch for a live mapping session this morning. From the mapping point of view, everything seemed to go well, a nice bunch of lads and a professional setup. However, my results were held back a little, as I couldn't hold boost that well at high revs, 1.3 bar was dropping to 1.05bar at the redline (costing me around 20BHP, the problem also seemed to lost me some low down grunt). Hopefully this will be solved simply by tightening the actuator. I'll post up the graphs tomorrow, however, for now here's how I did:
Petrol: 95RON
Mods:
Apexi Cone Filter
GT28RSR Turbo
H&S 5-stud 3" Downpipe
Milltek race cat
Milltek 2.5" cat back
PA FMIC
GReddy Profec B Spec II
Results:
.98bar dropping to .9bar - 292.2BHP, 245.6ft/lb
1.3bar dropping to 1.05bar, 317.7BHP, 287.5 ft/lb
Hopefully when I get the actuator sorted, I'll be getting 340 at 1.3bar. Rob also said he couldn't advance the ignition as far as on other coops due to the 95RON (I think mine was 9 degrees compared to 15). I forgot to ask Rob what the at wheels figure was!

All they do is adjust the fueling and ignition i.e. kind of like a custom GTEC, except they're using their maps tailored to your car! They adjusted mine to 11.5 AFR midrange and leaned it out towards the redline and advanced the ignition by 9 degrees (I think). In my case, the Fiat chip was way too rich and the GTEC1 too lean in the midrange, I see it more of a peace of mind mod!

If it's not a rude question, how much did your live map cost?

They are good for that Should get a blueflame like mine The shell one along the M56 shoulda been open and one or two further down usually are along teh A55 ah well, tip for next time, print off map with shell stations on route using autoroute and working out where abouts you will start to run low and fill up near there

I had no problems driving home, although that was 300 miles at reasonable (ahem...) pace. Mine isn't lurching, it just cut out a few times, flickered between 500-800 rpm, cut out and the battery light came on It might just be coincidence (ICV might need a clean) as my mapping should have been fairly straight forward.

Ok, I drove back over to PT today and had a chat with Rob about my little cutting out problem. He's adjusted the map on the unichip so its not altering anything at all on closed trottle, I will wait a few days before I post up the results as it took a few days for it to start cutting out last time. The jerking on lift off however is much better now so I'm quite hopeful this is the problem solved. I did learn that mine is just controlled by the unichip and not a half and half as I originally thought. Rob was a top bloke as usual and hopefully will be joining us on some track days in future lookng forward to that.

I've just got off the phone to Rob and I'm booked in for Friday 8th. Let's see what the 3" turbo back and aquamist does.

How many hours mapping do you think that will take Ken? What is the estimated cost?

Rog - yep, I do. I've just picked up my brand spanking new water bottle for the space where the airbox is. I have no idea what model car but i have a part number. That's getting installed at the weekend.. then i'll be round for a fill up. Are you about? Kevin - I have no idea of costs (bar the fact it's £110/hr)But i've explained to Rob that the DDS Junction box is next to the unichip ready for connection. I might get a wiring diagram from dastek and do it myself then just get it mapped.
