EFI live = Incomplete tuning package!!!!

[NASABlue]

Understood Joe,

Thanks for your time and response.....

I'm here because, well I was sold on EFI live. I stick with things for better or worse, and at this point why start over at sq 1 W/ HP T?

I don't mean to be an ass, you guys are really trying to help and I'm really trying to learn. When I do get all the i's dotted and t's crossed I'm going to do a write up the way only an anal engineer could do and make it a web page w/ picts of my entire build right from removing the radiator, fabbing the motor mounts (I'm not paying $300 for mounts when I can make it from home depot for $10, of course I already had the welder), to the fly cutting the pistons, head, cam, oilpump o ring (PUT THE O RING ON THE PICK UP TUBE..... LIKE A CONDOM), Clutch, and efi live & innovate wireing and tuning.....

I am down to the last Item here.....

Again I appreciate your and everyone's help, and, in return, I will help as much as I can.

hey

on the positive wire, Billdog on the CF suggested that I hook up the positive wire to the fuel relay because it is switched on only when the engine is running vs when the ignition switch is turned but the engine isn't running.

He further explained this keeps the WO2 from burning up if I were ever to leave the ignition on, but not have the car running.

This sounds like a winner of an Idea to me but it's the first I've herd or read of it.

Any confirmation or comment is welcome as this is the avenue I plan on pursuing at this time.

That might be a good idea... just make sure the fuse can handle the sum of the currents.

I'm an engineer too...

I'd like to see your pics.

This has to be a first-- two engineers communicating in English.

If you can call mine English...

in the other thread I was trying to explain how to compare 2 tune files... ...I ended up having to use a picture...

And you call yourself an engineer.......

[TAQuickness]

I like pictures

NASA - I'm glad you are finding the patience to get things sorted. I believe in the end you will find your efforts to be quite rewarding. You may even be able to make a few bucks off your Z06 buddy

Dave, you're funny...
