so i've fixed the mach...its now 8lbs of boost..just under then limits of what the internals can handel...and if driven with care no worries...tanny cluch flywheel, driveshaft rear end allllll good for 800+ hp, and let me tell ya...id tore it the F up tonite. Kills:
1. 2017 mazarati something...
Just an update Car is back in once piece, turns out not only was the Mafia not working with no signs of fault (12v out was dead) my Maf had also started to fail but not 100 of the time. So my tune is ok, albeit I prob should get it re-tuned so I have the tune on file, and I know exactly what the...
I was planning on getting a HPX slot style, but depending on the results of the new parts I might get one to replace the stocker...and use the quarterhorse to tune it.
@DSG2003Mach1 yeah that would make sense, also the quality of air would be much better as its not coming right out of a 90 degree bend from the intercooler which I cant imagine is well organized air flow by any means. So I am wondering why it was relocated there in the first place? However with...
Hey Question guys, my MAF because of my supercharger system is now relocated to the lower right fender well near the inter cooler. If I move it up to the front of the bend right before the TB will that require a retune. I planned on making a 7-8" 3" long straight pipe before the MAF to smooth...
ROFL, i think id just buy another thermostat they are cheaper than 250$ :), but I may be investing in one here soon after i get my diablo Mafia in the mail...if my car is able to run normally after that the next step is a quarter horse and a j3 chip, or cant i just leave the quarterhorse in the...
Alright people I think its time to reeeeeel it in, seems like we got a bit off topic. Anyway Ill soon have my Mafia, And right off the bat I can see that my MAF is bad as the thermometers are completely damaged and one is missing. So once I get these two parts installed, and the car runs like it...
@03Snake04 yeah that sucks to hear that there are scumbags out there that will do that, however i'm not one of them. I have an 11yr old super charger on my car that had 5 different owners so I really need to know to the best of my ability what is going on so I can make it safe and derivable at...
@Weather Man thanks but, I am really hoping that replacing my mafia and stock maf will put me in the ball park, but even when the car was running good, i felt a little hesitation sometimes so i may still look into the ECU ad don module for data logging, If and only IF i can keep my current tune...
well I think that going back and forth on why tuners do what they do is irrelevant...one we cannot stop them from doing what they choose to do, just go somewhere else. your choosing someone for their expertise, and YES you are paying for that, so the tune in legality standpoint is yours, however...
@Weather Man to be honest, in this situation all i need to do is probably replace the Mafia, and my stock MAF and ill be ok. As of right now I'm unable to even know what the tune on my car is, and how its setup so i'm kinda in the dark as I bought the car this way. Other than spending 1400$ or...
@decipha I'm hoping no one took offence to what you said this is a pretty good bunch of guys and gals here so no worries. the QuarterHorse sounds great, but you still maybe not directly answered one of my biggest concerns is that the tune I have on there right now is for my procharger if that...
@slo984now hell yeah I still want to hear from you guys. I'm a novice to the tuning sector, and i know its a dangerous place to be if you don't know what your doing. Im looking for my best option to be able to do the most with what I have. He has is opinion, and from what i'm reading about what...
SO a a member @decipha chimed in on one of my posts about my supercharged mach calling everyone idiots..lol I got a kick out of it. Any way he started talking about these modules you can buy that you can directly program in real time (which btw im an electrical engineer/Programmer) which is the...
@decipha Lol powerful statement there I almost got burned by the flames just reading it. Thanks for the info though I will def check it out as it sounds up my ally and everyone other than lund racing seemed to be kinda like I could make this work. I was like burh this is a 500hp work commuter...
yeah the SCT cannot do a quarter of what the HP tuning or any pro tuning software for that matter...one of the biggest things is it cannot adjust the fuel curves which is super important on power adders like superchargers and turbos....BUT I do agree it really sucks that my ECU is locked...LUND...
OK i get why tunes get locked, but what if your like the 4-5 owner of the car your maf and Mafia take a shit, now you want to go with a blow through MAF like a HPX or something and now you cannot access the ECU to make the chances to fix er up.
Thats where im at now. My choices are to buy a...
@slo984now ROFL, yeah thanks for pointing that out. I have a hard time looking at the dates of posts when I find something I can respond to lol. im sure he has.
I'm going to go with an HPX Blow through MAF, but that requires a tune, and I have a HP tune on that no shop can seem to unlock or upload the ECU data to start a new data log...I'm going to again try to so some basic volt meter diagnostics on the stock maf I have to see if I can see if its still...
So my Mafia fried, and took the maf with it apparently. So i'm looking for anyone who has gone from that sorta setup on a procharger...vortech or anything that would still use the stock maf and use a range extender or multiplyer device of some kind.
I want to go with a single MAF unit that is...
yeah thats was the path i was going to go, even a small SCT maf is like 250, and that's not with a longer tube which i'm looking to have made for smoother air across the maf. I figured Id just ask just for the hell of it I know a lot of people upgrade Mafs when the go with a bigger supercharger...
