Haha have any of you gotten a code flashed off the ecu? I was told to get the code for catalytic efficiency flashed off the ecu have any of you done this or heard of it being done?

java09

I've heard of it but never done it... I don't think its such a good idea... Just incase.. Idk..

i also got that cat efficiency now that my tune is rich, i think it due to unburnt fuel due to rich mixture haha i dont know but i didnt have that when i was running lean. unburnt fuel maybe translated by the o2 sensor that the cat is not doing its job when the truth is that you removed the cat

Hmm so I'm not the only one? I'm going to try an anti fouler and see if that works hopefully it does the trick

Mr_Meaty

yeah...I could not get past the error...

java09

i havent got any of these CELs wierd.. the only one i get wierdly when i get the boom is 0171 lean fuel trim one.. but if i clear it it doesnt come on when driving.. and i only get it when it booms... and i get 0101 everynow and then but thats just my maf hating on the 3 inch intake..

Mr_Meaty

got a call from todd today...can't do an ecu swap cause they need to verify theowner, so i'd ahve to go up.
he thinks aem may have had a bad run (like 1000) of f/ic units...so we may be switching to the greddy mine pulls great to 5K and makes more power then before, but then it just freaks out at 5k...todd said with the greddy I'd get a cel cause they ahve to pull the o2 sensor to tune it properly.

aen

matt has greddy but doens't need to pull o2 sensor.

i need to fix everything and get tuned asap

you mean pull the stock o2 sensor? do i need to do that for emanage? i hope my tuning will do fine

Mr_Meaty

Matt also has never gotten a proper tune or been on the dyno.
I know you don't HAVE to pull the 02 sensor, but Todd says that's the best way to tune our cars with it because it automatically throws them into open loop (or is it closed loop? I can never remember!) But I can plug it back in and clear the code to pass smog.

haha.. i think its open loop, WOT is open and its where we tune

Mr_Meaty

yeah...todd was going to try a different ecu but he said the dealer will need me to verify it's my car and something else that's a pita or something.
But in another thread, someone reminded me that garage1217 had mentioned swapping out ecu for those going back from the SC, so hopefully if I get some info from him, we can try a different ECU before ditching the F/IC!

How long ago did u get ur FIC Phil?

aen

i wonder if mine is okay.

phresh47

^^ had it since day one, i guess.. hope its a bad FIC batch, than a bad tc batch

Mr_Meaty

Yeah, I got it like a week before I got boosted, so close to a year...I was one of the first ones that Dezod sold.

But Tony has tried 3 on my car and has 2 Honda S2000 with the F/IC having the same issue...

coryjames

hope my fic isnt a turd i would be ____ed lol
