I love ostrich
 
My friend tuned my car today with ostrich. This was my first experience with it, and let me say, it is awesome. After about 2 minutes we had my idle rock solid with 15:1 AFR's. Part throttle took about 15 minutes to do, a nice 14:1. And then we spun WOT around for about 20 minutes. We found that my turbo just loves fuel from 4000 to 6000 and then it drops off. Spinning that motor up to 7K felt so great. My SMIC was getting very heat-soaked after those pulls. We tuned for 5 psi first and then at 10 psi my home depot couplers blew off every single pull. We figured with the side-mount being so bad we would leave it for today. So, a beautifully tuned car in 45 minutes. With the temps being so hot and me having a useless intercooler we stepped up the ignition retard to 1 degree per lb of boost. Well, I definitely need a new intercooler and some new charge pipes but aside from that my car pulls awesome and healthily. Thank you ostrich and uberdata. :D :D :D :D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Craig Moates makes gangsta hardware.. The mods and I got into an argument about some stuff concering this, but I think it's funny that my idea is happening without me even promoting it.

Hahahah.. just goes to show the potential.. :D

...doesn't matter, anymore. :) I'm working with Craig on my own.


PureCRXtasy:
It's already done. I'm waiting to hear back from the PGMFI testers. Some were experience a weird issue where it would say that the com port is in use, or didn't exist. When it did. So I fixed that last night... there is a thread in the TE forum of PGMFI with the new GUI if you want to have a look at it..
