Tutorial Subjects

[TAQuickness]

From the previous poll, there seems to be an obvious direction future tutorials should go. Keep in mind, only 25 people have voted so far, so this could change.

Now how about telling us now what subjects you want covered in tutorials. You can choose more than one subject, but try and limit it to what is most important to you.

RPM vs PE....wait, I'm supposed to be doing that one:muahaha:


Seriously, one of the reasons I originally posted was due to the lack of solid info on a custom OS conversion for SD.

Implementing OS5 with 3bar would be #1 on my list.:cheers:

[ringram]

It should all be useful for newb's

[joecar]

Other:
Torque control (torque reduction, abuse management, traction control...).
Knock and knock sensor.
Spark smoothing.

[TAQuickness]

good one's Joe.

[ringram]

Custom OS upgrade and use

Forced Induction tuning

NOS tuning

FANs, Tyre/Diff changes, Speedo reading fine tuning & other minor tweaks like DTC resets and disabling etc

How about tuning for economy?

The first three are almost done. :)

I think the best thing is to make one large document structured logically from start to finish with advanced stuff at the bottom etc.

Indexed etc, then easy to navigate and single source

I would like to see a tutorial on creating calc pids

using state's for pids, using AD and Serial data for pids & using other pids. Each with examples

Any other features of calc pids that you can possably think of would be great.

just a little off topic but it would be good if the state## pids could be split up so they can be displayed individually on a dashboard as well. maybe a tick boxs for each.

The state PIDs can be tricky, read this thread
State PID Question
Post #7 explains them best.

On topic, more info on spark tuning would be nice too see.

Embedding STATE/TSTATE pids in calc pid:

i.e. any of these should work (e.g. bit 5 in STATE04):
IFF(RAW({GM.STATE04}) & 32, 1, 0)
(RAW({GM.STATE04}) & 32) >> 5
RAW({GM.STATE04}) / 32 & 1
RAW({GM.STATE04}) >> 5 & 1
Note that 32 = 2^5.

It's not so much the equation im having problems with its where everything goes in the in the calc_pids.txt file.

what units should I use?

i made the units a factor and it soped giveing me errors but and show up in the pids and is avalable and i selected it, but still doesnt show up in data tab and I cant select it for a gauge, chart or status.

I had already read throught most of the links (posts) and also the scan tool documentation but im still not finding the answer

you guys are a great help though.

[joecar]

V8H,

Use the units "None"... try this (see attached).

Cheers
Joe

[joecar]

Please take note that some of us have found that the DFCO bit in STATE05 doesn't seem to work in the LS1 PCM...

you will have to then use some other criteria for your BEN filter (e.g. TP < 1% and MAP < 25kPa, or something).

[lakingslayer]

I put other to include all of the above.

[MyM8V8]

E40 specific stuff.

[Heartbeat Hauler]

Basic tune to adjust tire size, gear change, speed & rev limiter removal. A glossary would be nice describing parameters to be altered.

All comments are being noted... thanks...:cheers:

Time is very sparse at the moment, volunteers are welcome.

In the meantime, see the link in my sig.

I agree .
