Cutouts

I don't. I have a general idea on where it should be when I see it but I don't know the figures. When I was building some of my past cars, I had a manufactures manual on ALL of the specs on PDF and could go on that. the Kiwi just takes the info from the OBD port and broadcasts it via WIFI
 
So what do u think it should be? Take a guess

Blasting it over wifi is garbage...you need tools and graphs and histograms...it needs to be viewed in a format that will make sense
 
if I remember from snooping around something around 900 psi... I was seeing 200 something at idle and I know its a mechanical pump operated by the lobe

If u have 900 u have a problem...you should have at least 1800 but most likely 2000-2200 psi depending on what is being commanded...you really need tuner level software to properly diagnose an issue with this.....the fact that you are blindly guessing at what the fuel pressure should be tells me that you will only find more questions which lead to more speculation with your kiwi logging endeavors....i kinda feel bad that you are about to waste precious moments of your life...you really need good logs and i dont know how you do that with lms ....this car will be widly different than anything else you have manuals on
 
Like I said, I don't have all the specs so I would have to do some research and find out where things are supposed to be. The Kiwi is, again, just to broadcast. I have FORscan and another program to read PIDs and it does a decent job of it... Livelink isn't available for the 16 explorer and if the software is available then I will be able to use it with the Kiwi adapter.
 
So, 93 gas with 91 tune was fine, but 93 gas with 93 tune was not?  If so, it seems that current fuel is not providing the cushion the tune needs, and you should keep running the 91 tune and filling up with 93 fuel.  LME does not advocate additives, so try to get quality E0 gas or unleaded "race" gas, see what happens.  Top end fuel pressure should max out near 2500 psi on a '13+.  No CELs?  No codes?

What is the sampling interval you are getting with the kiwi adapter?
 
93 from another station was giving me a lot of issues. 91 tune fixed it but it was sporadic sometimes. let the tank get low and filled up at a mobile and loaded the 93 tune back in and have not noticed an issue until I hit redline and then it acts like its hitting a rev limiter but slower (if that makes sense) The sampling rate is 10,000 Hz I believe(from what I can find). no codes, no CEL I ran the check with the OBD Fusion app that seems to be working nicely when paired and it wasn't kicking back anything. I tried to get FORscan to work with the adapter but for some reason it doesn't want to play nice. I will check out the SCT software and see if it will pair up with the Kiwi 2. I have this weekend off so I will get some logs and get them in here so people can go bananas with them. OBD fusion also supports dropbox for easy transfer
 
You cant pair anything up with sct lol...you need to buy an x3 or x4 and plug into obd port and download live link gen 2 its free lol
 
If you have OBDFusion that came with the Kiwi you can do some logging but the only graphing you will get is on the device or a csv file which is a pita to read without graphs. OBDfusion is AKA OBDlink and I have a thread with my current setup in the datalog section. Logging looks pretty straightforward let me know if I need to walk you through it.

Someone recently put up a page that will auto convert any CSV file to a graph so that is an option as well. Maybe someone with a better memory will post the link.

The OBD programs are handy for some things like basic troubleshooting and pretty gauges but they lack the resolution and software package SCT offers. For a problem where things are happening very quickly (high rpm miss for example) and you need to log many parameters SCT is the only way to go IMHO. You might want to consider buying a used X3 or X4 for logging.

I run Torque, Dashcommand, and currently OBDlink (Fusion) for basic stuff and gauges but when logging for a tune or if I had a critical issue i would fire up the X4.



 
Another thing you might want to consider.

Your X is behaving the same way mine did at the track when it blew the shift point and smacked the limiter.

Shift point and rev limit are two different scalars and I noticed you say you are shifting at 6500? On the stock tune the shift point is low 6K and the limiter is at 6400

Is it possible your shift point was moved but your limiter wasn't?
 
I misspoke when I said 6500, it was around 6000. If I am in manual mode and I hit the shift right at redline its fine but a second too slow and it feels like it is hitting the limiter. This issue is slightly different than the initial issue so I think it was safe to say it was just crap fuel that caused the initial issue. I just downloaded Dash Commander and that seems a lot better than the OBD fusion app.

I do like SCT and I may consider buying the GTX when it comes out but as of now I haven't been able to find a tune offered for anything over the 14 explorer. I loved my Diabosport trinity and being able to adjust my own tune to how I like it as well as when I was tuning with my AEM unit.
 
I have run Dashcommand and the stock Tux dash is awesome and very fast. once you start creating custom gauges they are slower AKA Torque.

The OBDLink/Fusion is very fast and quite flexible if you want to make some gauges that flow better with the interior.

My current setup is attached. There is a small learning curve but once you get the hang and save multiple gauge setups it goes pretty quickly and its simple to change the gauge function once it's built without any hiccups.

Your Xsport can be custom turned by any notable SCT dealer and custom tune writer. Such as Unleashed Tuning.

If you are going to SCT's site and seeing that they only offer it for a 14 or older is because they only offer canned tunes for 14 or older. You don't want or need an official SCT tune.


Although I could also be miss reading what your intention is.


Sent using smoke signals.
 
Seems like people that have after market free flowing exhaust are aboe to hear some of these high rpm tune problems that may exist

Couple different platforms now seems to have this going on....it just seems odd how tune revisions seem to clear it up on multiple platforms

Im confused though on lms' stance...because i always see how there is nothing wrong with the tune and how lms says they have thousands of them out there but on the other hand people are being offered tune revisions to remedy the problem
