The front shock setting is down to 3 clicks now. Next outing I'll be trying 1 click. The wheelie bars will be set a little higher. Trying to make sure I get some good weight on the rear tires.
The launch map and rpm I'm presently working with is 185-190 kPa and around 5800 rpm. I'm reactivating the nitrous at the launch and shutting it back down at 210 kPa MAP. This should require less than .2 second of nitrous on time. The aux fueling trigger point has been moved down from 240 kPa to 220 kPa. The rpm makes a good upward bump when the aux fueling comes in, and I thought I'd try to get the aux fueling to come in sooner so that I could take advantage of that rpm bump up earlier in the run.
One electrical wiring bug showed up during the last outing. I'm using an ECM GPO to control the activation window of the nitrous system. In the past, the GPO was set up to make the nitrous system live when the rpm and map were above 2800 rpm and 84 kPa MAP. A map switch would control the shut off point. With the new strategy of reacivating the nitrous system at the launch and switching the nitrous system shut off point control from map switch during staging spool up to GPO control for launch map level shut down, I had to change the GPO control to create a more exact nitrous activation window. I added another parameter to the GPO. The nitrous system would still become live at a rpm and map level above 2800 rpm and 84 kPa map, but now would have an upper rpm and map level shut down parameter of 5800 rpm and 210 kPa MAP. So now if both above 5800 rpm AND 210 kPa MAP were met, the nitrous system would be shut down. This would allow me to very finely control the exact shut off point of the nitrous system during the launch of the car, and would keep me from winding up with too much boost and the nitrous being on at the same time. 240 kPa MAP with the nitrous on seems to be the limit of the fueling. At this point, anyway.
Well, the electrical bug was, the aux fueling power was controlled by a relay that depended on the nitrous control relay being powered up. In other words, the aux fueling relay was in series with the nitrous relay. If now I was commanding the nitrous to shut down at 210 kPa, that meant that the power to the aux fueling would also be unavailable when it was commanded to come on at 240 kPa MAP. This resulted in a massive leanout. The leanout was so massive with the E injector cut back that no damage was done to the engine, but it took me awhile to figure out what the heck was going on.
The power ciruit to the nitrous control relay and the aux fueling relay are now in parallel, not series. The circuit strategy worked fine in the past where I just left the nitrous system live at any rpm and map level above such and such, but now that I was starting to kill the circuit above a controlled rpm and map level, it created a problem that ended up being simple to correct,... once I realized what the problem was.
