I'm heading to chiptorque this Saturday so Lachlan can read what the
ecu is doing on the road eg floor it off stand still/stall it up and go/kick backs etc etc. In particular he wants to see what the timing is doing on wot takes offs on the road (where there is full traction), to see if the torque maps are backing things right off. I'll post results on Saturday when i get back. As has been discussed with a few knoledgable people in the trade everything seems to be pointing to the
Ecu playing games.
He and his other programmer are both sorting though the codes at the moment and things are looking good on the torque reduction removal. Thaks in part to a certian document that was floating around :Up_to_som
Au2xlsV8 also had a drive of the xr8 whilst I was up there the weekend before last and picked it straight away there is a solid spot of around 3000rpm when it takes off but below it feels some what restrained.

The old XB is in the garage getting a heart transplant at the moment and should be alive again in Easter! The clapped out plug fouling, ashmatic stock 351 (i shouldn't be harsh it was the original engine from 73' and went good for what it was) did a 15.7 @89 mph, i reckon i could have managed a 15.5. I reckon that auto could be a slight problem with yours, you may want to get a stallie, i was pulling 2.3 60 foot's with 3.5' and a manual.
Good luck with it all, your ute certainly looks the part and hope to see you again soon, - Mark |
Yep the stall is on the cards when the cam goes in mate. At the moment we are waiting to see how the torque reduction theory plays out.
yeah I spotted you earlier on in the night mate, lol theres not many XB's out there as smick as yours. Sure I'll see you there again some day hopefully both cars are doing better times and we can have a run or some thing.
