Help - Please:-) - WHAT THE FOOK! interesting results inside

[hayesey]

   good stuff, glad you've finally got to the bottom of it.  I guess g-werks have accidentally sent the wrong map?

Thanks for the kiss but I'm prob not your type, I'll gladly share a beer with you at a show though!

[youngprodigys]

Im really fooking angry to be honest!
The reason i had to buy a new ecu was because a Gwerks chip fooked the last one.
Wont ever buy anything from them again. bills totalling about £350 have been caused by them now.

Chip £95
New ECU £140
Hall sender £70
Ignition amp - £40
another blue temp sender £23

Question is - where can i get a map from? Andy and Yoof....Do you reckon you can help me out here?

Il buy you a few beers my friend!

being a member on club G40.... priceless!

an if i was you mate the money you have spent take it to andy and get a custom map done.

[Yoof]

We've nothing for an eaton (that I know of, Andy might have..)- probably custom map time.

If I'm correct you've now fitted a stock G40 map with 250cc injectors and it works?

[youngprodigys]

i have fitted another G40 map of unknown origin. it was in a ECU i bought to replace the last one. its not a standard map i can tell that as it uses a daughter board and had a IC underneather the chip.
what it has done is allow me to turn the car on with 550ohms on the co2 pot...not 50-60ohms
it will rev when i put my foot on the throttle and not cut out. i am not reving it high! nor am i allowing it to boost as i wouldnt risk it as i dont know what the map sensor it set to read and knowing my luck it would be 7psi not 14psi. and yes with stock injectors.

I think andy will be playing custom map time with me. need a base map 1st tho to get thro MOT before i can take it on the road.

[Andy]

Will give you a PM in a week or two, currently away with work a lot at the mo - but should have something to get you up and running well enough for an MOT before custom mapping. Sounds like your Eaton chip wasn't for greens...

[youngprodigys]

might have a chip for mot's using stock injectors and the throttle linkage disconnected so there's no boost- and a crazy power map. what would be the best injectors for this setup? and does anyone know what boost this charger setup produces?
I think I will put in a better map sensor aswell ( I solder circuit boards for a job)

and nice one andy, when ever is best for you mate as I think your my only hope for a map lol
after 2 faulty maps and a huge bill for parts I wouldn't trust gwerks to hold my pint let alone do another chip

[vwmk3jon]

Sounds exactly like all the fun ive been having! Poor running, rough as fuck when warm, annoying!

iirc, my maps a g-werks item so i wouldnt be at all surprised if it is that.

Hoping Jabba can help me out as they're real local.

[giorgio]

could be worse; steve could of mapped your car 

[youngprodigys]

hahahaaha giorgio.
I wonder how hard it would be to alter your map in your ecu to run mine. the only real difference is that yours is 1341 instead of 1272. is it posible to read the chip to attain the data- and then alter the fueling to suit a smaller capacity?? I'm sure andy will know this.
what psi does your setup make giorgio?

[PeteG40]

i think giorgio is saying you dont want it!lol

[lance]

is giorgio not on emerald anyway?

if i was you mate id look into standalone management too. as under your bonnett is gonna look good so it would look even nicer with less wires and no coil.

[hayesey]

seems an unnecessary expense to me, just get someone to map the digifant. 

[youngprodigys]

hahahaha no lol giorgio is running digifant because steve mapped his emerald! a very expensive paper weight!
emerald is nice but the project costs have spiralled out of control and the money isn't there for it

[G40supercharged]

already got a fooked G40 ecu myself from a previous adventure! sends no spark from it.

You may be able to fix your broken ECU if it works other than not firing the ignition coil. The coil amplifier is driven by a transistor which may have failed (they are less than £1 from Maplins). I did work out which one it was once (along with the one that stops the fuel pump running when it fails). I will try to dig out the details and post it up.
