Make sure you have some kind of spreadsheet app to veiw your logs, fist time I opened up a log I just about fell over lol it was in notepad but when I dl openecu and used that it make a world of difference

yup already got office on my tuning comp, because as of now my 5th injector setup is based off of like microsoft access. so it was already needed.

Did u upgrade ur radiator? Does anyone know if and evo 8/9 rad will drop into an 02 lancer OZ?

03lances · Jul 8, 2009, 10:51 PM

I remember someone is Zulus thread I think saying it will fit with no issues

JRR · Jul 12, 2009, 10:15 PM

im pretty sure that it does fit, BUT i did hear from a guy who works at the mitsu dealer here in madison say it wont, but take that with a grain of salt cause ive had problems with them before as well.

was finally bale to do some data logging and i have 3 logs to look at. the last one is just kinda playin around, the first one is a trip from weaver auto parts in waunakee where i work and live down to my other work at rc performance and hobbies, all in all approx 25min drive in traffic, and the second one is right after i changed my oiland spark plugs, because i was getting a cylinder 2 misfire, so i changed the plugs and i havent had the problem since. any ideas? cause plugs didnt look too bad.

here is a pic of my old plugs.

what heat range and gap are you running? The gap should be ~.04 smaller than stock and 7 heat range

JRR · Jul 13, 2009, 04:17 PM

im runnin the ngk 2756 which is a bkr6e-11

do you think the 7 would be better? i just put new 2756's in and havent had a problem since and no cylinder 2 misfires like i had before.

cincy · Jul 13, 2009, 07:15 PM

for your power level, 6's should be fine, its the gap which you need to keep an eye on. Go back and measure the gaps on the plugs you pulled and i bet the one that is cyl 2 was .02+ bigger

JRR · Jul 13, 2009, 10:18 PM

i will definatley look at that when i have time tomorrow. i never did think of that.

JRR · Jul 25, 2009, 09:39 AM

well i got my 501 maf yesterday and i plan on starting to tune it either today or tomorrow. also picked up the evo 8 gauge cluster because i like the look of it.

ThunderOZ · Jul 26, 2009, 12:25 AM

Just curious, what did you gap the plugs to?

JRR · Jul 26, 2009, 08:48 AM

which ones? the new ones were gapped at an .040 and the old ones when i pulled them out were an .045 on all of them so im not sure why i was only gettting a misfire on 2.

got the 501 eclipse maf in yesterday and the ecu flashed to accomodate it as well. havent logged anything yet but it seems to be smoother coming into boost now!

Great to hear. You've now eliminated another restriction on your intake side. The smoother you can get air into your engine, the better your turbo will spool and the process repeats!

o and also a big thanks to senate for the eclipse maf values!

and on a side note i got my subaru wrx 440 injectors from work a few days ago. less than $40 per injector from gb remanufacturing! and nice thing is if they dont work i can send them back!
