I have a high map of 310rwkw's that I usually run that uses 98ron fuel. My race map with 328rwkw's has more timing and needs the booster to avoid detonation. I've never tried to run the race map without the booster, not prepared to take the risk. :o

Geea. :o

I wonder if around 310rwkw is the limit of power on xr6t without higher ron fuel...?

Surely Spiro can tell you if that is the case

Yes and I will address it shorlty. Problem is there seems to be a real issue with quality fuel in NSW at the moment. Mobil 8000, which I thought was good, appears to be less so than BP ultimate at the moment. Optimax is even worse.

Hunt yourself a fuel chemist at one of the local refineries, they always love to talk turkey & ifn you are good enough will do little teste for you with your fuel.

I used to have one to annoy years ago when I cared enough, haven't seen him for years now, fuel changes from month to month in its make up, as it is made for the climate.

Craig...........

Get Mike's Dyno Tunings - phone number and email address posted here and I am sure we can keep him busy for a few weeks........

I have a coupla questions for him.......

OK so do you still use the 270rwkw map or just the 310 and 330?

What fuel do you use now?

At 317 im getting some dettonation under hard acceleration so I might have to get used to using octane booster.

The car doesn't have any problems. Detonation, from what I can see, is because the car is making over 310rwkw and its on suspect RON fuel.

Btw, how's the surging edit program working for you?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Dont be a dickhead tuna. Ive stated that ive only run at the track once. Do you product a credit and shut your mouth. You'll get more sales that way

I mght be intersted in edit if not for the fact that the local tuner wants $1700 to tune the fuggen car and that does not include your crappy edit box

Of course you can't blame him. Real time tuning is something edit doesn't do

Steve,

Do not drive if you are getting detonation, that is asking for trouble.

Do you know you can also crack the alloy head though detonation, or cause damage that will surface at some future time.

I have lost heads on previous turbo cars because of this, but these days it should be very easy to get your timing retarded to avoid the problem... unless there are other fuel delivery problems.

Don't blame the fuel in Sydney... it can't all be bad.

Get your car sorted out asap, otherwise it could be expensive rectification.

Here is there phone number it was on the dyno sheet. 0397939113

Have some fun.

Hi Brian,

Yes Im aware of the problems with detonation. It has only happened on 3 occasions all under extreme acceleration. I stopped driving hard instanlty each time. Having said that the car will be getting fixed shortly. I do however still believe there are fuel issues in sydeny that don't help the situation.

Steve, doesn't Unichip have a knock sensor built into it? If so do you have it connected? This would pull timing as soon as knock is detected. Always better safe then sorry.

I am not sure. I believe the engine does as standard although unichip may overide it. As mentioned it only happened momentarily before I backed off the throttle on all 3 occasions. The car will be worked on this week to sort it all out
