EU tuning pass stock DE-K ECU cut off
I'm wondering if anyone was able to get over this hurdle. Here is my last dyno graph and you can see where the stock cut off still tries to kick in. I know Dan worked on the timing and adding fuel however, my maps have gone funny plus exhaust restriction. So I'm hoping to over come this hurdle once the exhaust is installed. I also plan on removing my PV and seeing what happens there as VIAS doesn't seem to be on my side.

The engine goes rich for about 200 rpms so you cannot completely eliminate the power loss at those rpm's. You can only edit the scale at the cutoff and try to make the gaps in-between smaller and smaller(between 6400 and 6600).
maybe one of you knows the answer to this...(sorry if im stealing the thread)
my value is 10.8 at 6500 to get past the fuel cut. At 6700-7200 do i have to maintain 10.8 or can i drop that back down to a normal value? if i drop it down to a normal value will that then be my fuel cut?
tdot and kevlo (and everyone else) what are your mods? im dek no power rod, soon to be stock headers (xspower shortys nothing but trouble), short ram, ypipe and exhaust. Anyone mind sharing their map? i understand not everyones values are going to be the same and all cars are different, yadayada, but im willing to go off of someones map and maybe scale back a bit for a little extra protection. right now im running the same exact tune from when i had the old de with the MEVI. i just want something for the time being, or atleast to compare or look at.

(Dandy/TDotMax, feel free to drop in at anytime)
As for mods I just have the JWT POP, Fidanza flywheel and a timing advance. I'll be installing the EUltimate/AEM Wideband along with the v2OBX headers and Cattman cat-back in the coming weeks.
Here you go:
Grey, with all the datalogging I've done via Consult and with EU I can tell you what happens.
First off, the others are correct, the cut is fuel only. But nothing else takes place. The fuel pump operates normally, and the ignition is not cut at all, in fact the stock timing map continues up to at least 8000 rpm from what I can tell (haven't revved my car past that though...
)
The fuel cut is not a complete cut though, nor is there any missing pulses or anything. The only thing that happens is that the injector PW's get greatly reduced. For example, on DEK injectors (290cc) at stock 4th gen fuel pressure I was seeing pulses around ~1ms (at 6500 rpms this corresponds to an injector duty cycle of about 5%).
Hope that helps.

With the EU, you could probably futz with the ignition tables and cut spark to make a rev limiter, but I don't see why you would.
Actually, in the ignition tab you can add a spark cut limiter. I have mine set at 7300. My fuel cut is set at 7250
It is just added protection incase something goes wrong and to prevent another 8200 rpm rev

And you verified that it worked? Back in the day when I was doing all my EU playing that ign cut never seemed to work by itself....
Oh really??
im going to have to try that. Although it doesnt let me go past 7700. But im sure it would let me rev high as i would want in neutral.
Kevlo, are you running the stock oil pump or the RevUp?
And for raising the rev limit (sorry in advance if this is considered thread jacking), if I wanted to bump it to 7200rpm, would I just fill in values for injector PW up until 7200rpm and the EU would cut fuel there? This makes sense to me but if it's any different someone please explain.
