Modified IDM and tuning

[Shaw]

First off I like to know about the fritos dip - is it any good?

Next why wouldn't the map look like this? HPOP is my guess.



When I run it with this map It doesn't seem to have any problems but I do have big oil?

You can run it all day like that on a stock pump too. But really, there's no need; maybe HPOP may not be able to keep up....or because Ford wanted to do it for other reasons.

The desired ICP map is based on mass fuel desired and RPM.

Here's an exercise for you (do this in your head while looking at the map).

From an idle, punch the accelerator pedal.
MFD is above 70
RPM starts at <700

Where is ICP?

What do we know about the relationship of ICP and injector pulse width for a given MFD?
(Hint: check the pulse width map)


Now, using the ICP map, pulse width map, and any given MFD, you can figure out what is happening when you replace that drop with a straight line.

Bonus points for showing work......

Oh, and bean dip is THE BOMB.....

Both when you eat it and also a few hours later!

[Shaw]

Well it depends on what bin I look at. If its one that Bill wrote, it would hold the PW thru the dip, if its the stock bin then you would drop PW for a short period thru the dip. Am I seeing this correctly?

(Ill pass on the bonus points for now)

3045 ICP

As ICP increases - PW decreases

PW never increases, instead just stays steady.

Here ya go.......



Pretty sure I missed something though, too early for all this thinking.

[cleatus12r]

No, it's that the bench you used is FAR too clean. Has someone been building automatic transmissions on that one lately?

That will work. This obviously is not factoring in the PW multiplier (which on a stock truck at operating temperature is 1 anyway).

Now, since we have a bit of information here, why would we go about increasing the injector on-time instead of maintaining higher ICP to get the same MFD?

[907DAVE]

Maybe........



Just a spare for the pickup.

Good question.

Maybe because the injector is too slow, even with the higher ICP.

[cleatus12r]

I would only be able to venture a guess to that one. Basically, you're accomplishing the same thing either way, but I assume that the lower ICP/higher PW is accomplishing the task of introducing a bit of heat to the turbocharger turbine........

OR

The power will come on a bit more slowly and with less aggressiveness with your foot to the wood.

Which reason? Heck, I don't know. It thought that you might have an idea.

[907DAVE]

So then - back to my original question, how to decrease spool time.

Looks like dropping ICP in the low RPM's, or pulling some timing out would both help this situation.

Would you venture to guess this is what Ford had in mind when designing these maps?

Seems like there would be a trade off, crispy clean throttle - or faster spool up.
