Hi folks,
This morning, I had a chance to take some runs at the freeway onramps on the 210 here in Pasadena; there are several in a row where you can run up and then get off. It's the first time I've had a chance to really run the car out, and I logged them with my Dashhawk. The attached picture is the one run where I got to start from a stop light and go up the ramp without any cars around me, it's about the cleanest, hardest run I made this morning. To orient, the first RPM spike is me throttling up to 3000rpm before dropping the clutch, the rest are the shift points as I went up.
Two things concern me when looking at the plot. The first is the fuel cut between the first-second shift; I have to lift to shift obviously, so it may have just been a long shift. The second is the knocking after the shift to fourth; I may have not been completely WOT at that point since the speed was getting up there, so it might just be the normal knocking everyone sees at partial throttle.
I'm logging load to see what the engine is doing, I'll change that to boost if all of this looks normal; I wish the Dashhawk could read more than five parameters at once. I'm happy that the fuel PSI is at 1700, that seems pretty good. But, I am wondering about the Dashhawk measurements a bit...I filled up after all this and the Dashhawk read the tank as 94% full. I'm hoping the other numbers are a bit more accurate!
Anyways, I'm putting this up for advice about how it looks like my car (which is all stock aside from Denso ITV22s) is running...if anyone has any I'd appreciate you sharing. Thanks!
