Eat my choda.

Do some research and don't threadjack.

If you get xenocron to make you a conservative base map with an efficiency that is pretty high (say over 110%) and with a good ignition retard number you should be ok and nice and rich in boost. I made my own basemap using the guide on their website and it was pretty conservative. When I took out the car with the wideband hooked up for my street tune I had to dial it WAY back to get it near where it should be for AFR.

Cool thanks guys. If it blows up, i have no problem letting him finish my dohc zc build and boost that, cuz i really don't think ill ever have the money to finish it. So if it blows, oh well.

twice i've ran cars for months on maps i found on the xenocron bin file site that were "close enough" and never had a problem. stock motors, never wideband, stock distributor and plugs. id just check the plugs once and a while.

my friend on the other hand turbo's his ls, i told him i could get him a map free, but he insisted he buy a custom made xeno basemap, blew his motor few weeks later

Was it necessarily the basemap or was it a combination of a near death motor and an idiot behind the wheel?
