I dont mind the wait. no special rush is required.
I dont even have a car, yet.

Inaccurate

That reminds me.... I need to bump a thread somewhere

bouncer07

Swoosh, you work for Rodney?

iTrader: (5)

^^^ nah man....just helping him by keeping the thread updated....and help him with the orders and stuff....

Rodney has a baby girl due in the next few months so he has his hands full at the moment....and i rather have his ass in the shop dyno-ing and wiring up harnesses than up here posting and replying to messages LOL....

Thanks for the update Swoosh! I am super excited to get this installed!

this is probably an icredibly dumb question, but i'm going to ask it anyway.

i found a shop to weld in the bung/o2 sensor onto my jpipe...my question is, how do i get accurate AFR readings?

is that all you have to do, weld it on and connect it to the gauage and voila...that's it? and if so, will the shop know how to do that?

or do you have to pick up readings from the ECU or how does that work?

swoosh

iTrader: (5)

^^^ Justn asked me the same question and this was my reply:

you get the bung welded on, then tap the sensor in it (like you tap the O2 sensor)....the sensor connects to a controller....the controller is different for different brands, you cannot run a AEM controller with the LC1 gauge....

then you run the wire from the controller to the gauge....

if you DO NOT have VE LIVE TUNE in the MS3 then you need not wire the controller to the ECU....if you have LIVE TUNE then you GOTTA wire it to the MS3

swoosh

iTrader: (5)

on a different note....you can run the controller and the gauge depending on what is the voltage output for the control and the input for the gauge....

so if the controller has an output of 0-5V, you can use a different gauge whose inputs match that....

SharksBreath

iTrader: (33)

^ok so i have the LC1 gauge package...

i don't have live tune...

i just want the AFR's to properly be displayed on the gauge...so...yeah

swoosh

iTrader: (5)

^^^ perfect....you all set in that case brothaaa

FCVadi

iTrader: (3)

the ms3 ecu does work with the LC1 setup, just choose it in the drop down, so you can live tune the AFR.. i would hold up though until more research/info/experience is available on live tuning.. but you can still run it to ms3 and get some really cool graphs on the afr

W/B calibration is dependent on the manufacturer. Check your specific model to see if they recommend a cal at a given interval and will typically include the process.

Example of the LC-1 Cal (in the manual)

4.3 Calibration Schedule
Normally aspirated daily driver:
- Calibrate before installation of new sensor
- Calibrate new sensor again after 3 month of use
- Thereafter calibrate once a year or every 20,000 miles, whichever comes first
Turbo car, daily driver (tuned rich):
- Calibrate before installation of new sensor
- Calibrate new sensor again after 3 month of use
- Thereafter calibrate twice a year or every 10,000 miles, whichever comes first
Race car
- Calibrate before first installation of new sensor
- Calibrate once per race weekend
Dyno use
- Calibrate a new sensor
- Calibrate every 2-3 days, depending on usage

As far as connecting it to the MS3, why in the world would you spend the money on the W/B and not use it with the MS3. Independent of the "Live Tune" feature, it gives the ECU a whole different method of adjusting the fuel mixture instead of a fixed map.

If you register TunerStudio, then you have VE Analyze Live. It's not that expensive in the grand scheme of things.

iTrader: (5)

^^^ I agree with KN....i would go with the VE Analyze Live....

KN, damn nice post brahhh....

thanks for that post, kurt.

one more n00b question. how do i wire the LC1 wideband to the MS3? any instructions? would the install shop know?

KN_TL

iTrader: (3)

swoosh

iTrader: (5)

^^^ KN i thought you could wire upto 8 Wideband controllers....i see only 1 port here....

KN_TL

iTrader: (3)

The controller to sensor is multiwire depending on the sensor.

The connection from the controller to the ECU is just an analog signal hence 1 wire.

iTrader: (5)

^^^ aah....thanks for letting me know

Ok excelerate came to our rescue with aem patch harnesses which ive been waiting on thru our supplier ,to complete groupbuy purchasers so everyone can get there ecus who purchased thru groupbuy ...let me also elaborate on connecting wideband to ms3 ,wether its an aem or lc1 ive always left a pink wire zip tied to ms3 which is wide band input wire ill post up pics

KN_TL

iTrader: (3)

It's weird that the schematics from the MS3 site says purple for the wideband connection but I have your email that says pink and I remember it being labeled correctly. Many of the wires have the designation printed on it.

Everyone should follow Rodney instead of the drawing I posted. Sorry for the confusion.

pass427

Yea kn theres a few different plugs that can be used if u scroll down in o2 map youll see you can select which wired input is bern used but to make life easier with every jandr ecu we use pink o2 wire this way every ecu user is using same this way if any troubleshooting is needed we know which wire is been used ..

So no one is confused, I deleted the file from my photobucket account so it won't show up here.

I deeply regret not been able to be on forum continuously to post but im sure if ANYONE HAS AN ISSUE IVE ALWAYS ANSWERED ALL EMAIL OR TEXT TL20046speed@yahoo.com or 5617161775 as I know ecu is fairly new to most and aside from kn helping out and gerzand ill be more than happy to help anyone to get familiar

pass427

Kn sorry about that as I know you're helping me out it just so happen I got a chance to come on forum and saw post ,and not that youre wrong with post I do appreciate the post please dont take this in anyway negative ...

pass427

Live tuning works well and actually better than a tuner ,as weve used this feature and tested it BUT ONLY FOR NA APPLICATION WE DO NOT RECOMMEND USING IT ABOVE 100kpa as anyting above 100kpa is positive pressure ,isa video needed to familiarize ecu owners how to ????? .Keep in mind a wideband is definetly needed to use live tuning feature..

^^^ while you on here Rodney explain me how to connect a Water Meth Injection to the MS3.....

pass427

Ok swooshbeen that we don't use water meth with any our cars we haven't actually hook it up as yet but will post which connections is to be used to connect this .........

KN_TL

iTrader: (3)

I started a thread but I seem to be alone:

https://acurazine.com/forums/3g-tl-performance-parts-modifications-112/j-r-ecu-water-meth-injection-852210/

Found the FAV at Howerton Engineering and the components from DigiKey are less than $10.00.

I've already got a progressive controller that I am going to dump and just use the relay and plumbing that I already have installed and will just put the FAV in. The setup is pretty simple and I want to do this before heading to the tuner.

pass427

Swoosh please follow kn thread as he already is using meth and knows how it works and already is using it thanks kn as we dont use this on our builds ..

^^^ just started following his thread Rod....btw what are you doing at home LOL....send a guy to talk to you for a turbo kit

pass427

Sure wish I was home in the work truck coming from brandon fl so with 31/2 hour ride back I finally get the time to use my phoneand check on the thread my co worker is driving so I use this free time to check in but service sucks with sprint on a few spots across 60 & on turnpike keep losing signal...

what the pciture was saying is tht the ECU will allow you to hit warp speed, they have their head on hands because they are bracing themselves for J&R Warp X speed with the ECU

Feji.... :gtfo:

pass427

Yes im sure everyone ecu is here and readyand harness we needed is on way also ,remember its not a plug and play ecu until we make it and send it out needless to say yes it did take a little longer tgan anticipated but given fact they all start up when they are delivered and gains are definetly solid not just we're throwing dyno number up ,and given fact most orders was added with knock unit ,we do deliver snd keep working to please everyone ......

pass427

And tunes will be uploaded so customers can have tunes as needed this all takes time and money which we have been doing out of pocket ,ive witness less complicated parts been delayed way past ecu estimated time which we are just giving an example this is an ecu not just a bolt on part and fir most part customers have been pleased so far yes a few have minor hiccups which can and will be solved with a tune from local dyno or even with minor adjustment I usually help out ......
