Sounds good...
Has anyone tried this? I was considering converting my GLHS to 87 electronics, but with this available there is no reason to! I'll order some ZIF stockets today and hopefully will have this flashed in a week or two. Today is the day I'll be trying out the Turbonator T3 code on my R/T.
On a side note, is there any good source for the 8K eproms/eeproms? I'd prefer not to destroy the original chips if I don't have to.
You can use a 32k eprom with the LM. You just have to burn the .bin with an offset to put it in the right spot on the chip...
For some reason I thought the smaller 8K eproms had fewer pins than the 16K+ eproms. I'll have to take a look. I know all of the older GM eproms had a reduced pin count.
You get those LM's back yet
Yes I did, thanks! Need to get a car put back together to use the nowYou get those LM's back yet
Anyone ever have the chance to try this out?
Anyone? Beuller?
Not yet, still trying to get one put together. The was a guy local to roachjuice that me and him were trying to build an '86 cal for, but haven't heard from him in a while.
Anyone try this yet?
he sold that car and now has an 86 glhs #421. it has a mp stage 2 tune on it.
Has anyone tried this code base yet? My GLHS is apart for an injector swap and I'd like to know if I should buy a fuel pressure regulator or be the guinea pig for this code. I'll need to order a couple sockets and chips, but I have every intention of getting this finished this week so I can auto-x the car on Sunday (7 days from now).
FWIW, I've built several cals with this code and no complaints so far. Not sure if that's because its OK, or just everyone's cars are down for other reasons...
Rob,
I just ordered 2 chips and 2 sockets. I'll install my 52 lb injectors this afternoon and will setup the ECU with the Turbonator code base as soon as the hardware arrives. I'll be starting with a 2 bar map first.
Sounds good.
I just tested the Turbonator GLHS code on my 86S. I'm running 72 lb injectors, so I scaled everything for 81 lbs since I'm running 55 psi fuel pressure, cranked the boost to 14 psi, and used the stage 2 timing with the anti-lag and stock staging limiter values.
The car runs damn well. I can't wait to see how it works at the auto-x tomorrow. I think there was something wrong with my stock injectors, so the combination of new injectors and this cal transformed the car. I guess now I need to install a boost gauge and my WB02...
Nice!
Awesome. Thanks for the feedback.
Any possibility that you have a Turbonator style ignition table for the 86? I ask because I am running megasquirt, and the timing table is definitely not correct because I have been using a swirl head spark table while my engine runs a G-head. I have tried to interpolate the stock G head cal into something that resembles a cell type spark table like what I am used to working with, but that has been an exercise in futility. Chrysler's spark tables are split into like 10 different line graphs that all interact together to get a final advance, and are listed in PSI instead of KPA like I am used to seeing.
I can tell this engine is not running enough timing but since I don't know where the baseline for a g head is I am very wary of making a lot of adjustments.
any help would be greatly appreciated!
I thought the GLHS used a FB head? If not, then does the 87? The GLHS and 87 T2 cals are essentially the same. And, the timing isn't much different from the 88/89 T2.
