Thanks Ross,
This will be right up your alley also.... I spoke with a Tech at FAST about the efi settings. I went over each value (as seen on the handheld in the youtube video). The only one he had an issue with was the IAC. He said it should be between 15-20 and my currently reads between 30-35. What had happened was during the setup, the instructions ask you to start the car. After starting the car (on larger engines), if it will not stay running, you have to turn the throttle blade adjustment screws so that the car will stay running at your chosen idle speed. After you adjust the screw, you should shut off the system and recalibrate the Throttle position sensor. This is something I did not do. So the car would randomly rev up to like 1200 to 1300 RPS. So I will re-calibrate this weekend.
Also, I explained to him that in 1st gear, there was almost a kind of hesitation. Gears 2-4 (at this point I haven't gotten to highway speeds ), the engine purrs like a Tiger.
He explained that the EFI system is programed to give a boost of fuel on acceleration. this was prob bogging the engine down a little in 1st gear. He suggested I go into the advanced settings and adjust the "Accel fuel" to -2 or -3 and this should solve the issue.
In other news, The radiator fans sufficiently cool the engine. in the driveway sitting still after a drive, the fans were slowly cooling the engine down. by the time I shut the car off, I was around 209 degrees, and I am not sure if it would still keep going down. At some point, the relay will tun off the push fan and we should be ok.
Also, I ordered a new 4 gauge alternator wire that feeds the battery with a built in fuse block. I will most definitely check the voltage on the alternator, but even if the alternator is bad, I will want the new alternator to feed the battery directly and not go through the OEM wiring like it does now.
more to come but good stuff at this point :0)
