Mark Edwards Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 Well it's done at last. Drove the 3hrs to motec HQ yesterday for god himself, Dave Rowe to map the car. The result..... pretty damn good actually, forgot to ask him for a power figure (typical ) but it feels so much better and pulls a lot stronger from lower down. On the way home i was doing pretty well to keep with my friends corolla gti that he had done the same evening. I must start taking some pics and get them up on here now.

Mikey Jay Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 Any rough idea of what power figure you're at now?Anywhere near the magic 100? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mark Edwards Posted March 30, 2007 Author Share Posted March 30, 2007 Any rough idea of what power figure you're at now?Anywhere near the magic 100?Not really sure, the manifold made a huge difference and the motec has increased that further, so there is a possibility of it yes. I've just emailed Dave to ask if he can work out a power figure from my map or if it needs to be running at the time. I think it can be done from the info in the map so hopefully he'll get back to me with a 3 figure number. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mikey Jay Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 Surely even if it's in the 90's will be pretty good.What you running regarding air filter by the way? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mark Edwards Posted March 31, 2007 Author Share Posted March 31, 2007 Surely even if it's in the 90's will be pretty good.What you running regarding air filter by the way?Some cheap rubbish cone filter that was donated to me, i'll be doing something better with it at some point though as i don't really like it. I want to relocate something down further towards the front of the car. It's a start though, a few other things i want to do to it aswell and then back up for another remap. I need to try and find a dizzy from a AT200 7afe engined celica as it's looking likely that it has the extra sensor i need to run full sequential injection. Not proving easy to find one to look at though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Idrees Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 Get the result up quick!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mark Edwards Posted March 31, 2007 Author Share Posted March 31, 2007 Has it been de-catted?Not yet no, this was just a first map to see what we could get and if it gave any issues. More to come yet when i've sorted the ignition issue, then i'll decat amongst a few other things i have in mind too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

GeeUK Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 You have 4EFE? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Glanza_Ragger Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 Motec management on a 4efe ?whats the point, why didnt you save the cash and just spend it on a conversion which would easily see you pushing more power than a mapped and tuned 4efe? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mikey Jay Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 Oi you! (glanza-ragger) Leave the n/a's alone (well, Mark in this case)Surely it's his money and therefore he can do what he wants?Tis individuality that makes this forum good in the first place Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mark Edwards Posted March 31, 2007 Author Share Posted March 31, 2007 Guys, i already had the motec from my last car so all i spent was the mapping time. I know its OTT for an n/a but i might as well use it rather than have it sitting on the table as a paperweight. The cost of the mapping will be offset against the extra fuel economy i should now be getting. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Glanza_Ragger Posted April 1, 2007 Share Posted April 1, 2007 oh right, no i wasnt slating you N/A guys, of course i wasnt.i was just curious as to why you have a motec system and mapping costs, when you could bang in a fte lump and have instant power gains. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
