Here's another try from me! I changed the settings to log 0.000v for map and tps, and included the Cal which is different from what I included last time.
I found that I had to scale up the fuel part...
I was wondering if there was anyway I could use my wideband logged .txt files with the MPtune option from the settings menu? I can't seem to figure out how to convert the .txt file to .csv so I can...
I was looking at the log I posted in the zip file, and finally realized why the voltage for the map/tps is not logged very well, meaning that it is only showing 1 volt at a time rather than 1.00...
I hope this helps, really don't know what I'm doing!! Let me know if it's not what you are after, and how I can help more.

I might be able to help here.
I use a TechEdge WB controller/datalogger that will log all that and more. It uses Winlog to log the info, and I also use a flashable smec so I could try stuff for you...
I'd totally agree with the budget being spent on handling. Our Neon was really hard to drive quick with the stock struts and springs. It was extremely tail happy under brakes and trail braking into...
Our Neon died from a stock oil pan, the crank started out near perfect, new bearings with clearances checked etc. I really don't know what killed the other's, although the team that ate 2 engines...
Hey great result!!
I had a go at the Calgary event, in a '95 sohc Neon......engine failed 4hrs into the 1st day! Actually, the engine did 675 klm's of track time at Calgary (lapping nights etc)...
I prefer it, although i'm having no real complaints with the current grouping. I found it easier to find what I was looking for with the new version....if that helps!
I was the one who built the hybrid in the van....and should be able to answer your questions about how I did it.
I used NPT screw in plugs sunk about an 1/8" below the deck surface. I taped these...
I agree with DJ.
I built mine with the driving force being the challenge of building it without being able to remove the block. I wasn't looking for big power, and wasn't expecting it to run for...
As Simon says, I built mine cheaply with the block in the van. It's still running great, year round through some nasty conditions, and must have close to 100k klm's on it now.
I'm still working at...
Wow,I don't really know these cars,but I grew up in Australia and we had these Holden Torana's in the late '70's.
Bit different...308ci V8,rear wheel drive etc. They look very similar I think....
You should have a look at an AWD van rear axle,as they have the stub axle's higher relative to the leaf springs so there is enough room for the half shafts to slide in.Should drop about 1.5" right...
Years ago I learn't a trick for helping back-flush rad's.
You hold the garden hose running into the bottom of the radiator and take a 3/8 airline with no end on it and also hold it into the bottom...
Not the best picture,but I had the engine out to swap it into another van.You can see what you are left with for clearance though.

Yes,stock Stratus clears the distributor.
The distributor is removable with the intake bolted in place too...just have to remove it piece by piece lol!
Depending what plug leads you use,you may...
Wow,that's a nice flange you've made!
Would the pumping efficiency table have effect here?
I'll have to hook up my OTC4000e and try your method.
I have definately heard knock with no CEL flash,but so-far nothing has broken.I lift off the gas right away,but it's not a good method really....
I'm curious about the cold A,B,and C enrichment tables.Can you tell me when they are used? For example,is the A table used when the engine is coldest,then B as it warms and C as it warms further?...
This is the screen shot of what I'm refering to.

I have been tempted to change this table,but would like some input please.
Reason being is,at differing rpm's/boost I have had no CEL light come on but hear knock,and other rpm's/boost the light...
