Anyone use this Beta yet?
Yes...works well! :)
Where did you get the pins/stuff to put in the PCM and how hard was it to install?
What are you running nitrous, F/I etc.? What vehicle?
Details on installation here:Quote:

Plus download the tutorial that appears in an earlier post in this thread. All details in there. Not difficult at all.
On terminals, where are you?
No gas. No FI. 08 Corvette powertrain.
Have used the COS to switch E85 in and out, plus select a different timing map and/or different fueling. So yes good for running some gas or FI.
Cheers. :cheers:
I am in southern California and looking to get this for adjusting timing/fuel on a 2010 Camaro with nitrous.
This is my first rodeo so any help would be appreciated.

Gave it a little try today. set the Ethanol table to -10deg and it pulls this nicely from the commanded spark but I noticed it wasnt changing to my commanded PE (ethanol) table and was only using the normal table.
Must of missed something. Ill keep looking.
We need a 2-step for this.
mmmm...never checked the PE table switchover.Quote:

I was NOT requesting :) jaja... Oh Ross... You always jump up with me :)
But a Custom OS which takes input from the clutch pedal would be great for WOT shifting... JAJAJAJA
I am in California. Do you have some terminals you could send me? Car is getting the engine installed this week along with the nitrous.Quote:

PM me....
All set ^^^^^^^^ :)
Well after 4 hours and a bottle of NOS i can safetly say it doesnt work for me. Pulls spark in the Ethanol tables, Shows 85.1% in the E85R PID and wont flick over to the Ethanol PE Table.Quote:

Can't you test without wasting the NOS? Like make it trigger without the NOS on?
As a test why not set B3618 to 12.5:1 then set B3670 to 11.0:1 and give it a blast with the switch on and off, at least you should clearly see which table is it using.
B0145 plays an important role here as it blends the values of the two PE tables depending on the ethanol %, it must be set to 1.00 at the 80% cell.
Cheers,
Ross
Nah i wasnt wasting the NOS :p I did it all in the main PE table (B3618). When triggered it wouldnt use B3670.Quote:

Well, I've not seen B0145 set to anything but 1 at the 80% cell (except on the Northstar engine), this is why it's not mentioned in the tutorial, but, that doesn't mean someone didn't fiddle, or you have an odd one there with it zero'd from GM.
I'm not doubting you had issues, but how did you determine it wasn't using B3670? Did you try something similar to what I suggested?
Cheers,
Ross
I tried exactly how you suggested Ross. Because I had already set it up as you would do with this kind of setup. When there is no NOS you run NA fueling AFRs and when you run FI/NOS you would run a seperate richer AFRs.Quote:

Jezza, hopefully there is no more blank Ethanol tables in there, it seems the Northstar cal team had zero interest in ethanol, from memory that is the only factory cal series that to this day has the ethanol tables blank, all others seem to be set to go.

Ross
I finally got around to doing the wiring and wanted to confirm that Pin #5 was the correct one as the J1 connector pictured does not look the same as the one in the 2010 Camaro we are working on.
Also, the car has been getting tuned via HP Tuners and EFI Live both. Once I swap to the COS would I still be able to make changes via HPT?
Thanks, again to GAMEOVER for sending me the terminals needed to get this project done.
In the tutorial it says "You must have V7.5.6 build 99 or higher" but I also read it would be OK to use V7.5.5 build 88.
The application we are going to use it on is a 2010 Camaro with nitrous. Can we use the current build 88 I am using?Quote:

Not sure of your time frame on this car but we are trying to get a new full release out this week (we've done a few pre-releases), I would suggest waiting for the new version if you have time.
Too late.:shock::shock::shock:Quote:

j/k
I tried to upgrade but it was not listed in the the "Upgrade OS" tab.
OS: 12635863
Cal: 12635862
V7.5.5 Build 88
I think I need to upgrade the firmware on the V2 or something like that as mine is like 2 years old.
Well, might be best to wait for the next release, then at least you will have everything up to date for the 2010 models.
Cheers,
Ross
P.S - Sorry to hear about the engine.
When do you think the new release will be out?
I was joking about the engine letting go btw.
I reflashed the ECM for the nitrous runs. Here are videos of my runs on the 200 shot.

Here is what the plugs looked like while tuning. A/F in the 10's.

Fresh plug. Got the A/F to 11.5. Still a work in progress.

When the new full release comes out will I be able to use the new COS or am I doing something wrong? I followed the instructions on the first page and the tutorial.
The custom OS's are defined in the .calz files, if they are old then the option to upgrade just won't show up.
The 2010 model COS's were finished back in Dec 2009 (not sure when they were released though), so if your software is older than that you won't see the option.
Is the new version out yet?Quote:

Orale, no seas malo!!!....jajaja
No es ser malo.. mira lo duro que sale ese carro y de momento el tipo dice un carro de 13 segundos???? HELLO!!!!!
Si es sierto...
No entiendo español!
Will this COS work with the 2011 Camaro L99?
Bill
I think the announcer just dies not understand that RT has nothing to do with ET so when the RT was high he thought I would only do 13's or 12's when I ran 11.3 at 130mph.Quote:

Orale....
No, it uses an EFILive specific OS number so we recognise it as a custom OS. HPT won't know what it is.Quote:

This is against a 723whp (on a mustang dyno) Alpha 9 GTR.
