    Engine management... what to use W/ 1JZ

    I bumped the timing down to 4 degrees during start up, which helped a lot. I can get it started, but I have to let it idle for a minute or two before I touch the throttle or it will die immediately. I'm still having trouble when it's 35 degrees or colder....

    Well a new little problem not sure if it's serious?

    Have you popped your headlights? I swapped my alternator and had the same problem, except when my headlights were on when it happened, they would pop. Turns out my new alt was overcharging (peaked about 19 volts).

    Again I ask, what does AEM offer that I need that Stinger doesn't? That's the nuts and bolts here....

    Engine management... what to use W/ 1JZ

    What size inducer? Going from 427whp (at 11.8 AFR) with EMB to 478whp (10.2 AFR) with stand alone isn't a good jump? What are the draw backs of Stinger? I haven't identified them yet. Well, other than nailing the cold settings down that is....

    No worries, replied to your PM. LOL, this latest school I'm in has me up to at least 1am Monday-Saturday, so dead is appropriate.

    New pistons? I thought you were just going to re-ring it. Hold on to your stock pistons, I'll put those in the GE so it will drop the compression & I won't have to use a thick head gasket. As for you head gasket, I would think that a 1.2mm would work well. The only time you would need a...

    Engine management... what to use W/ 1JZ

    I'm begining to think that my issues are spark plug related. I'm running NGK 6097's, but I think that they're too hot. I'm going to try iridiums and see what happens....

    Engine management... what to use W/ 1JZ

    LOL, I can't say I agree with that. I make 470+ with a 62mm/.58 A/R with my Stinger that's running way too rich (10.2 AFR). Before I swapped, I had a good tune and could only hit 427whp. What size, in mm, is your inducer?

    Plus, with AEM, you have to invest another shit load in sensors. Stinger uses all stock sensors. Plug-n-play with a harness from Aaron too. Hard to beat that.

    Engine management... what to use W/ 1JZ

    No more worry of stock ECU failure, TOTAL control of your motor. Emanage is a glorified (but good) AFC. I ran one for a while, and was happy with it, but stand alone is rather cool. It takes a while (or it did for me) to work out some bugs, but there is definitely more power to be had. I'm...

    Engine management... what to use W/ 1JZ

    LOL, I think not. Every reseller recommends AEM because they'll make a shit ton of money. Stinger isn't 'the best', but you aren't going to take it in the ass buying one. It will do more than what's needed for all but 0.005% of the SM members. Sheep....

    Nope, pulls strong up to 7200 and drops a little (10 whp maybe) until 8000. I hit 527whp on race gas & borrowed injectors....

    twins or go big

    I run a .58 rear on my 60-1 & it's spools great. Full boost (17-18 psi) by 3600-3700 rpm.

    Stock timing table replicated in Stinger, I'm going to load it up & see what happens.....

    Anyone have the stock timing & fuel tables?

    Jay, -Timing too high at idle. -Not enough fuel added during cranking. -Acceleration set too high (6.40%), but I'm not going to mess with it yet. I'm going to play with it tonight & see what happens...
