I finally got my JWT ECU!!! I had been getting the usuall Ben put off for a while. I called up on Wednesday and asked for Jim, the receptionist asked for my name and what I was calling for, then she put me on hold for ~5min. On pops Ben, "Hi, what can I help you with", I say "Ben I was calling for Jim to read him the riot act and see if that might help get my ECU done", Ben "Let me check I'll call you back". Ben calls back in 5min, "It will go out today". Sure enough I got it! He even sent me a JWT license frame plate and two small stickers.

Its a Turbo program for Z32maf w/ 516cc injectors with a 7200rpm limit. Their is supposed to be a problem that its too rich on cold start up, they were trying to fix that. It was taking so long I just asked for the problem program. They will send me a prom with the new version when its available, no charge. If its too rich on start Up I may need to run a start button, like a S2k, easy enough.

I should have the maf, injectors, ECU and E01 installed this weekend. I want to be sure the ECU is driavable before I install the turbo. I need one little exhaust flange to get it the turbo down pipe to mate up with my 3" exhaust. Turbo should be in the weekend after that! I cant wait! Four+ months with out boost for me has really blown I still beat several Tegs and other light duty racers w/o boost

Look out bishes, I'm back!

 

w00t, mardi is back

 

oh god i feel the tempureture rising

and i cant wait to put out the flames

 

 

Oh ****! If he can run 11.9 with a s/c....just think of the what he can do with turbo! Best of luck to your install, hope to hear how it goes!

S

 

mardi are you going to be spraying with this setup

and how much HP are your internals made to handle

 

I too would like to hear any details you'd like to share

 

 

good luck Matt.....so I assume your motor build is done??

 

20psi, everyone hit the deck

 

This should be interesting

 

Still on a stock motor for now. I want to get the turbo system bugs worked out before I do the built motor.

Have juice, will spray!

I will push the HP level to the 400whp range on the stock motor. Proll 550whp with the built motor. If it holds together, the trans that is, maybe more.

Still running the J&S Ultra Safeguard with the JWT ECU. Im talking to John about doing a two step function on the box to get the turbo to spool and hold boost between shifts.

 

*chills* man that full throttle shift is scary!!!! rode in a buddys Civc with Hondata(with FTS).......jeez o weezy!!! full throttle launch owns too, but crazy difficult to tune in.

 

Did you use reverse y-pipe?

Are you going to build up a 3.5 liter engine?

 

Did they make that turbo program just for you? Could they do a program for 555cc? How much would it cost?

 

Good to hear that your back, can't wait to hear some *DETAILED* progress. :-)

 

Isn't this a big weekend for you coming up? Let us know how your car is when the S/C is in.

 

Yowzah! I was just wondering this morning on the way to work about how your project has been coming along. Can't wait to hear about how the built motor runs.

How does Jim feel about running the J&S along with the turbo program? Does he think it's needed in your case because of the nitrous? Or does he think it's overkill?

 

Its a PFI kit, T4/60-1 .81AR.

Sure the program is available for 555cc. IIRC Loren prototyped the program and Ferhan is also running it.

Yes a 3.5L, I sent SGP the doner internal parts for the custom rods and pistons they now offer, so I got a hook up on the rods and pistons and ARP bolt kit, they are on the way too!.

I didnt even ask Jim, Im sure he would say its a problem, he thinks the Apexi AFC is a problem with his ECU. I am running it because it can do somting the JWT ECU cant, retard on detonation. The JWT ECU should not detonate, BUT, at the ragged edge of the injectors or a freak event could cause detonation. With out the J&S I would loose a motor, with it I'm safe! Retarding a few degrees with the J&S for nitrous will also be a big help, if John can get the two step studder box effect to work on the J&S that will be another great feature!

 

Matt - once the boosted boys in ATL get back up and running...you need to come down here and blow some **** on the hwy.

congrats bra!!

 

Me jealous.......

 

I can't wait to see the finished project

 

Yeah matt We need to make a trip down to ATL in the Spring!!! The mistress is breathing again!!! I get her back tomorrow and need to install all of my electronics

 

Great to hear


I am so looking forward to hearing about this

 

 

DC/MD area about to bring the FIYAH!!!!!

 

DC/MD area about to bring the FIYAH!!!!!

 

Matt glad to see you got your ECU. Lets see if I can stop by tomorrow.


Redmax be ready in June bijan be ready this June trust me when I say this. We are going to hae let me see how many boosted maxes in Atl
6 boosted maximas if not more if I missed any. Redmax has 1, me two, baggs, dixit, Eric and another unknown visitors who wishes to test out his car out here it will be fun trust me!

 

Hmm.. it might be time for me to finally finish that valve spring project for you.

 

HELL yea Jaime - boosted meet in ATL...

we'll try to get Sadler's as s up here - possibly frosty?

 

and maximarider should come too

 

Hey Mardi, you should come to the MIR meet in March (check DC section). Think your car will be up and running fine by then?

 

The ECU, Z32 Maf and 516cc injectors are in and running. The cold start issue did rear its ugly head, so I have to use a push button to star the car, like and S2k, but ghetto. Its rainy and icey but I did take it for a run, Im still NA, but it did feel stronger than my stock ECU. I'm sure when a turbo ECU is driven with out boost it is programed very similar to an NA ECU. The 7200rpm limit is nice too! Perhaps I can get the E01 in today, or at least this week.

 

Hey would it be too much to ask for a website update?

 

could you explane what you meant buy cold starting issue and needing a push botton to start the car how is that any different than just holding the key forward

 

when do you think that the new program will be finished?

 

New program will be finished "next week" according to Ben I'd say a few months.

When the car is cold and the key is turned to start the ECU dumps fuel to help with cold startup. With these extra large injectors its way too much fuel. If you put the key in the normal running position and crank the motor via an external switch the ECU does not dump the extra fuel on start up.

 

oh i see very interesting

 

bout time you back in the game.

 

I have a feeling he has not been out of the game but instead away inventing a new game. I can't wait to see what innovative ****e he has come up with.
