Torque Knock PID - may have some progress...

[ecoboostsho]

Good news! Curious what your timing was before and after...

Haven't put many miles on her since the tune adjustment.
It didn't run bad before, just higher than nomal kr numbers.

Is this sort of a winter tune...or are you boosting octane?

[glock-coma]

Not a winter tune but I did switch to my 91 tune due to the crappy winter gas in my area.
Still using 93 octane with the 91 tune.
I still had high kr numbers.
Torrie then adjusted something in the tune file. No +kr as of yet.

Good to hear, smooth "sailing" ahead.

Is there something different I have to do to get this to work for a 14? I put in the parameters exactly as they were on the first page but it either doesn't seem to work or I have no change in timing. I should expect it to at least increase the timing if I have no knock right?

Make sure the device that you're monitoring with isn't auto spacing after anything. I had this issue at first. Hard to notice actually.

Are you "adding new pid", or just using the timing advance?

Rich

 

[sunwolf]

I am adding new pid. It auto spaced the first time I tried it but I fixed that it still wouldn't work. Funny thing is when it auto spaced the gauge said 0.0 but when I fixed the auto space it was just a - and no value ever popped up.

 

[SHOnUup]

Are you getting the little activity square on gauge?

No

Can you post a screenshot of your setup. The pid info and equations page.

I have a 14 with the equation entered from the Torque thread and get knock readings just fine I believe -4 to +4 range.

Importing the batch is much simpler than typing equations IMHO.

Much less opportunity for error....

Here's a pic so you can see how mine displays.

Just remade it and it works now. I was using a crappy adapter before but with the nnew one it seems fine. Readings ranged from 4.5 to -3.5 on a half hour drive just now. Will have to try e85 and see what happens.

1. Run tank low
2. Via Torque, fill with 93 to 70%
3. Top off with corn
4. Enjoy!

The car may feel a bit off for short time while it's trimming itself out, have no worries though as it is temporary. If you want to shorten the re-learn take it out and drive it under various conditions for an hour or so

You will notice this disappear as the LTFT's get dialed in and your STFT's get closer to zero. Once it's dialed in, the increase in throttle response and power is definitely noticeable, in my experience it was 4/10ths at the strip.

 

[FoMoCoSHO]

Scratch that, I just noticed you are LMS tuned.

Sorry, lol.

You need to calculate for 15-20%

I would start at 15

 

[SHOnUup]

2 gallons of E / 85 per tank is working wonders so far. I like to add the E first if possible, to gaurantee a good mix.

FoMoCoSHO, your 4 tenths was on stock tune? Or was this experiment after tuned?

Stock

New layout and mount....
