Hello, I own 1991 Audi S2 coupe with 2,2L 5syl 3B engine, and my main goal is to make it run on VEMS and get power between 350-400BHP. Right now my best ET at 1/4 mile is 12,82 seconds.
Engine
- big intercooler with opposite direction air flow, by-pass in new location and drilled intake manifold.
- Intake: AEM 4" air filter
- original K24 7000 turbo
- I recommend some uptodate turbo design (garret ?) not K26/27 like MembersPage/MarcellGal/PowerAndTraction where turbo wakes up a bit late (above 4200 RPM in gear 2) for the power (406 Hp)
- Exaust: RS2 manifold, wastegate wiht stronger spring (old 10VT audi one), stock downpipe, straight through pipe to last original silencer.
- Fuel: stock fuel pump but modified elecrical system, mallory FPR.
- Gauges: VEMS Round WBO2 and EGT (2mm EGT sensor, RPM input, analog input for boost, analog output for stock ECU NB lamda), boost.
VemsAudiAan shows a straightforward wiring recipe for this engine, wether
- using motronic ECU
- still needs some wiring, eg. WBO2
- using v3harness
- or building custom harness
- best fit, but most work and likely the most costly as well
for ignition upgrade, you can either go distributerless, eg.:
- apply a 2x2 wasted spark module to drive ign2,5 and ign3,4 like MembersPage/MarcellGal/PowerAndTraction (ign1 driven by factory ign transformer)
- apply AAN-type ignition: power output stages + transformers
- or without power output stages, just the transformers (driven with power "IGBT" output, of course)
- use 5 logiclevel COPs (not recommended, these COPs don't live long in high performance engines)
- or use 1 channel CDI and keep the distributer (make sure it is positioned well, especially if using ALS - not recommended though)
The most appropriate ECU:
- assembled v3.x
- 6 IGBTs + 2 logiclevels
- write in the order note: "255 Ohm logiclevel output" to allow even for the (otherwise not recommended logiclevel COPs)
- with the 4 stepper channels, this allows up to 6 logiclevel and 6 power outputs
- no 1 wire
- 30V flyback
- primary trigger=VR
- secondary trigger=auditrigger
- 300 kPa internal MAP sensor
- or 400 kPa, but without serious internal engine upgrade higher than 1.8 bar boost is not feasible anyway
- no screws (easier to mount in the audis without screws)
Chassis
Brakes: 4x zimmerman discs, ferodo brake pads, Motul RBF600 brake fluid. Front brakes are waiton for upgrade, alredy buyed wilwood 4 piston calipers and audi A8 320mm discs.
Suspension: 4x kony yellow shocks, original springs are wating for lowering ones.
Body: The car got new paint a year ago, for better cooling it has modified RS2 replica front bumper, a little wider rear bumper, loesed lower door covers, tinted windows.
Other: 034 short shifter
Plans:
- Need to change the 2mm EGT sensor with 6mm one.
- especially if the sensor is before the turbo (although I guess it is after the turbo, in the manifold in the factory place)
- Bigger MAP sensor for boost logging.
- Change the ingniton system and eventually VEMS ecu (this takes for some time).
Turbo update is already in my plans, garret GT3071r i think, but all this comes with VEMS ECU.
The EGT sensor replacement is becase it is now in manifold, wiht old manifold it was after the turbo.
Today I started to "play" with boost logging option.
First i needed to measure voltage @ different pressure points (yesterday i had one not wery precise gauge and I measured only two points @ 150kPa and @ 200kPa, from them I calculated all other numbers).
At athmospheric pressure it shows 2180 mV, @gauge 1300
@ 0kPa - 0mV @gauge 1038
@ 10kPa - 191mV @gauge 1064
@ 20kPa - 412mV @gauge 1090
@ 30kPa - 633mV @gauge 1116
@ 40kPa - 854mV @gauge 1143
@ 50kPa - 1075mV @gauge 1169
@ 60kPa - 1296mV @gauge 1195
@ 70kPa - 1517mV @gauge 1221
@ 80kPa - 1738mV @gauge 1248
@ 90kPa - 1959mV @gauge 1274
@ 100kPa - 2180mV @gauge 1300
@ 110kPa - 2401mV @gauge 1326
@ 120kPa - 2622mV @gauge 1353
@ 130kPa - 2843mV @gauge 1379
@ 140kPa - 3064mV @gauge 1405
@ 150kPa - 3285mV @gauge 1431
@ 160kPa - 3506mV @gauge 1458
@ 170kPa - 3727mV @gauge 1484
@ 180kPa - 3948mV @gauge 1510
@ 190kPa - 4169mV @gauge 1536
@ 200kPa - 4560mV @gauge 1585
With disconnected analog in (4V) shows gauge 1529 and to ground 1040
Today I bought one precise boost gauge (vaacum/boost was very expencive) and i'm going to measure all points, seems how precise my calculations where.
Settings ate: linear curve, calibration is 255, offsett is 0
Now I'm trying to figure out how to make gauge in megatune show me pressure in kPa, loggign option already almoust works.
Formula what I'm using is value - 1038 / 2.62 = X kPa
