where did you go on vacation paul?

 

ahhh i see...slacker

 

hey paul this is a little off subject but hey...have you heard of Clark welding machines...ima bout to buy one (mig) and wanted to see if anyone has used them on here...

 

I use a lilcoln (SP) Ive herd of clark though.. pretty good from what i herd!

 

Went to Puerto Rico, St. Thomas, Dominica, Barbados, St. Lucia, St. Kitts & Antigua


SOOOOOO awesome trip. Got to hike in the rain forrest, see all these herbs, spices and crazy things growing the wild. I got to try the freshest fruit, right off of the tree it'self. It was incredible.

 

Never used it personally. I have always used either Hobart, Miller or Lincoln myself.

 

Paul any updates on the ecu that you are working on for the tc?

 

The firmware change required for all of this mess is taking a lot more work than we all thought. Hopefully next week we can have some updates

 

i learned on a lincoln....its a classic...lol

 

I learned on a Miller 350 Dynasty. SUPER dope machine.

 

Well we worked for 3+ hours last night on a firmware change so hopefully over the next few days (schedule permitting) we will have another update

 

Not even for this would i get rid of my aem ems!

 

iv been wanting it for a while...i hope to have some bad **** engine managment by the time im ready to boost again

 

is there emmision laws were you from?

Seriously dont wait..

Get there standalone box!

 

ther is emissions but not wher i live...lol...i love it

 

be a baller and buy the aem race box!


Its my favorite part of my car!

 

It is an excellent investment and indeed a true piece of mind on any modded car

 

i agree, buy the standalone!! you will have 10x more fun with your setup!

 

that would be sweet...ill shoot for it but idk if ill make it...lol

 

Update 5/23.

Been working on this solid for the past 5-6 hours on an 08 Dezod Turbo'd tC. The car was running an e-mangle, but now is running this prototype unit for tonight.

So, we chased down a firmware problem. It took a lot longer than anticipated to get it resolved form the software engineer. He finally finished it up on Friday and today we did some tweaking and tuning......First off, it looked hopeless. The car wouldn't start with the new firmware and such and it stall when it did. I was beginning to lose hope. Called the engineer and he me do some datalogs and send them to him.....

Round 2, car started. Idled well. Cruised fine below 40MPH, second we hit open loop, the car pooper all over itself. Misfired all over the place.........Was not too thrilled again!

Round 3, car stated fine. Idled better, but still had some open loop issues. I sat down with the engineer over the phone and had a half hour combo going over symptoms, issues and datalogs. Then he discovered something terribly wrong. The unit was shutting down 1 cylinder AND part of another anytime it went into open loop. This opened another can of worms I was sure for the worst.............

I then asked him if we can turn the open loop function off for the time being, he showed me how to do so. We went for the next and last test drive, and man what a world of difference!!!! The car for only 5 PSI was an utter champ rolling to the throttle, WOT, EVERYTHING! She is not 100% yet, but damn close. I feel with some more fuel map tweaking, spark tweaking, this should be ready for full-time testing within the next week.

Have a great, safe weekend!!!
