DTA installation on c20let

[GSI-TURBO]

Hi @all

I am installing a P8PRO DTA system on my c20let engine.
(www.dtafast.co.uk)
It's a very nice system with launch/traction control and a.l.s

But now i got a question, how many degrees ignition can i run maximum on 1 bar boost ?

I also can make a map for atmospheric ignition degrees and make a pressure compensation... but how many % or degree retard do i need when raising 0,1 bar ???

The same applies to the air inlet temperature. how many % retard is needed at 10degree celcius raise ?

I want to keep the engine alive .. so thats why i ask these basic ignition facts..

Regards,

Dennis

Dennis,

as I couldn't find any information on the referenced website about supporting a knock sensor, I assume that its in fact not supported.

I guess this means that you need a good and well tested program for this engine managment system made for the C20LET engine or you are forced to put your engine with the new EMS onto a test stand and you there have to find out which ignition angle is still ok under which conditions.

That's why I never would buy an EMS which doesn't support a knock sensor and an EGT-sensor. Autronic has a system that supports both and is even able to learn by driving. That means the EMS needs some start params after installation and then you can drive carefully and while you drive the system learns how your engine wants to be treated. But , sadly, as always , its not inexpensive !

Hi !

Also please please please dont kill our best working K26 Hybrid turbocharger during the optimisation or trial !

Its very easy to overtemperature the charger at the exhaust side , only some bits were left , when you ust wrong exhaust temp !°

Arno,

I installed an Exhaust Temperature Gauge, and i will just a small amount of ignition retard, and a small ammount of fuel during A.L.S testing.

But first the car must run, and then i will install the rest of the system like traction control and launch control..
