Who here is using DSM 450's and turboedit and find their car idling, driving and overall run like ---- in vacum? unlike like my old N/A motor I really missed how smooth my idle was and how responsive my throttle use to be in this D15 engine cruising normally(~10.0-0 in HG), or how it idles at around 1500 in a cold morning and it would drop to about 800 when warmed up, compared to 1100 and like 600-700 warmed up now , anyone know why its so fucked? I'm using an IHI turbo and its tuned for 12.5:1 but i barely tuned the vacum region (pretty much stock basemap values) since it always displayed 14.7(at idle too) except it would hit 10.1 when i give it gas then back to 14.7 almost instantly. I had the impression that since turboed=more lag and therefore kinda shitty till you hit boost. Does this theroy still stand correct and verdict that to my problem or its just my vacum tune is fucked?

Also when you're idling and you tap the gas it reves UP right? well mine doesn't it actually drops down like 100 RPM and then it will rev up. WTF this kinda makes me wanna go back to N/A

Uh, you need to tune your idle.

Disable O2, use your wireband, tune idle. It's obviously not right. Too rich.. not enough ignition.. not to mention 450s open/close slower.. you really need to tune playa.

Be sure you have the O2 senser turned on in Turboedit. You can select o2 ON, o2 OFF or o2 OFF in boost. I had mine off and I had a bunch of "flat spots". I burned a new chip with no other changes except I changed the o2 to OFF in boost and now the car runs great.

..uh, you can't tune with that on. I mean you "can", but it's worthless. The ECU will also be trying to correct your changes... ..but, whatever.

Thanks for the replies but i'm using NG48 not NG55 so i take it i cannot turn off my o2 sensor. The reason why i'm still running NG48 is because my car will not run with the NG55 code. Don't ask why it beats me i've tried many times.

Heres something for you to brain storm about, i'm using TE V 2.5.2: when i open my NG48 bin the stock map radio is not selected, nothing is actually selected for the map sensor and yet my car starts up and drives. When i check it as stock map sensor radio ( 1.8 ) my car won't run. Now when i open my NG55 bin is already selected as stock map radio and it acts the same as NG48 with stock map radio checked(starts but boggs and dies).

Ya, we don't support defunct code. Good luck fixing your issues dude..


..btw, the latest code revision is NG60, if I remember correctly.
