Re: Tuning for richmond cars
I got a wideband.
http://www.megasquirt.info/ Theres the site about it.
http://www.msefi.com/ Thats the message board.
Its a full standalone system, very cheap system with plenty of features, good bang for the buck.

Why do you want standalone anyway?

Re: Tuning for richmond cars
No no I'm not doing it to my car, its for some other project cars I'm doing with some other people on the back burner. 12x12 isn't ultimate but its good nuff. There are some base maps some Volvo people have cooked up already. Its not too much work, you can buy a kit already put together for ~200.

I know nothing of this system but looks like it will get the job done.
Terry, you are always welcome to use our dyno to tune whatever ya want. Just call ahead so I can make sure you'll have time. Me dyno, su dyno.
I plan on tuning a few cars there in the near future. I may stop there soon

They have hookups for spark and EDIS. These cars will be sparked, no EDIS. It may be only 12x12 but it does pretty damn well and its constantly improving in its abilities.

Re: Tuning for richmond cars
I tune Mustangs and most Fords @ Performance Autosport. Everything else can be brought to our shop and anyone can have free reign on the dyno to tune if you all wish. Call us if anyone wants to rent out the dyno for their own tuning sessions. I dont mind one bit, but I still have to strap down the cars and push the buttons and what not.
784.8851...dynojet 224x.
holla.

I'd be interested to shoot the breeze with you one day about how you set them up... everyone kind of has their own theories on what works best and tunes slightly different on the same type set-up.

Hey Terry -
You have any experience with SMT-6? I'm looking into getting it, got a good line on a setup and I think I just may.

Re: Tuning for richmond cars
I too am trying to earn back the money i spent on my wideband. I have an innovate lm-1 wideband with a rpm converter and all for datalogging. I noticed you didn't really say anything about tuning hondas with uberdata. I am pretty good with tuning fuel maps for boosted hondas using uberdata so if anyone needs a wideband to use or needs any help tuning their honda with uberdata then let me know. I have a laptop for doing the datalogging, a rom burner for burning the chips, etc.
