Dme Adjustment Reaction Time

Hi

I logged the output of my DME during a drive yeserday and then flashed the 100 octane program and then logged again.

I compared this info with the stock timing maps and is convinced that the maps are adjusted realtime as the computer knows exactly how much each cylinder is knocking.

The maximum timing with the tuned map is 53.25 degrees and with the stock map I logged 42.75 degrees.

At WOT I logged high engine roughness numbers >25 and then at part throttle a few second later the timing would be back at 53.25 degrees with engine roughness numbers = 0. This on 95 octane fuel.

I can only conclude from my data that our DME's will adjust to its maximum timing when the engine does not knock and reduce timing when knock is detected in real time.

Well done Scott, I am really impressed with the application that you have developed!!!!!!!!!


Cheers
