Summary of change:
Successful conversion to VEMS Genboard 3.2 on my race spec 1985 VW Golf. Pictures and some info: http://proton.shadowflux.com/vwracing/ http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/jerrysno1kid/album?.dir=fa25re2&.src=ph&store=&prodid=&.done=http%3a//pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/jerrysno1kid/my_photos Email: james at shadowflux dot com ---- 13 Oct 2006: Current problem is premature rev limiter engagement at 6500 rpm instead of whatever max setting is. Not using soft rev limiter, min_crank_per set to 768 (9700rpm). I need more than 6500 rpm! Maybe related to rev limit malfunctioning: Realized that crank trigger settings were off quite a bit. tdc_after_trigger is only 30 degrees instead of the recommended 60. trigger_tooth is currently set to 7. Next test session I will change trigger_tooth to 4 and increase tdc_after_trigger to 60, then fine tune with strobing timing light. This is all after I fix the burst coolant hose of course =/ ---- Config Latest/revised comments config: MembersPage/JimW/Config Notes about subsystems (to verify/justify config variables) on pages below * MembersPage/JimW/FuelSystem * MembersPage/JimW/InputTrigger * MembersPage/JimW/IgnitionOutput * MembersPage/JimW/AirFeed * MembersPage/JimW/Wiring * MembersPage/JimW/Sensors * Datalogs http://proton.shadowflux.com/vems/datalogs Engine: * 1.8 liter VW from 85 GTI ** 10:1 compression ** Ported solid lifter 8 valve head, code JH ** Euro cam ** Bosal/Brospeed tube header, 2.5 inch exhaust ---- My Genboard and LCD display: http://proton.shadowflux.com/vems/genboard_32_1.jpg http://proton.shadowflux.com/vems/lcd_box_1.jpg http://proton.shadowflux.com/vems/lcd_box_2.jpg ---- Future Plans: * Add relay and switching gear to properly set up launch and shift control. * Add EGT sensor and hardware if necessary. * Change connector on endplate for common DB9 cable fitment. * Change over to standard GM IAT sensor for more accurate readings. * I'm sure I'll find something else to add here. ---- Notes: While browsing the net I came upon this thread about someone using 034EFI on their turbo VR6 VW Golf. The 034EFI setup looks very nice. The thread is located at: http://forums.vwvortex.com/zerothread?id=2470106&page=6 An AMP round mil-spec connector option would be nice for Genboard. ----
