00' V6 RIPP SDS Build PART 2! Spring 2012 update last post!
Hello all,
I am currently working on a 00 V6 with a RIPP SDS kit on it. The car starts and idles, but as soon as you touch the throttle is chokes out and dies. Basically, this car has had to many hands under the hood, and I have the dirty job of removing everything.
The car came to me with an MSD 6AL Multi Spark ignition kit/coil pack kit on it, RIPP Meth Injection, RIPP Black Box, RIPP map pressure sensor, and the A'pexi Neo Controller all trying to properly run the car. Yes thats right, 2 piggy back managements, and a rev limiting MSD box. I am in the process of removing EVERYTHING listed above and converting over to EVOscan tuning software with a flashed ECU. I realize doing all of that does not guarantee it will run properly, but spending time trying to make it run right as it was would be pointless, when it already starts and idles.
I have some issues of concern however, the engine has low compression pistons, shot-n-peened rods, and headwork, not to mention RC440cc injectors (RC650cc injectors installed in the elbow of the charge piping but currently uninstalled). So I need help having some one get me started with a tune that can at least get the car started and idle. Or maybe if someone has a better idea on how I can tune this car, OTHER THAN A PIGGYBACK SYSTEM.
I also had an issue where I couldnt connect to the ecu to datalog simple things such as iac, coolant, rpm, speed, bank 1 o2 and others. I have a palm pilot that works on every other car Ive ever worked on, is this because of the black box?
Any comments/help is greatly appreciated
