I don't think anyone's interested in what you have been told. The poster is looking for factual information. The HKS A/F Knock Amp is tool for evaluating the a/f ratio and the knock levels, for the purposes of monitoring these parameters and/or for calibrating the engine management. It uses the signal from the stock knock sensors (regardless of whether they are very very very good or not), or you can mount your own. The a/f knock amp can be used with the FCON V Pro in self learing mode to automatically self programme to determinable a/f values, which can save time with mapping. We use one in our dyno cell but it's very unusual for a kit to be permanently installed in a car. Looks very cool on the dash though B) Only trying to be helpful old bean :winky: It was you who told me that BTW ..... It's not very helpful if you make inappropriate comments. The poster was not asking how good the standard Toyota knock sensor was. By the way - I was right - the standard knock sensor is very good.

ASAP please

Near Lakeside shopping centre in Thurrock (J30/31 M25)

Hi, Can anyone lend us an is200 for a couple of hour or so please (must be with a standard ecu)? You can wait with it while we capture some data. In return for the favour I am sure that we will be able to help you at some point sooner or later. Please email sam@tdi-plc.com or call 01708 866609 Thank you :)

Hi Ellz, The filter adaptor ring hasn't arrived yet unfortunately. When did you send it? A smaller number plate would indeed help airflow to the interooler. We haven't driven it yet so we'll do that early next week to make sure everything is OK Have a good weekend :)

Count me in. Really looking forward to hearing Val Doonigan, Rolf Harris and The Pub Singer

Can we have a bullet point list of what has changed please? Thanks

Ouch! There are quite a few engines that have the sensors in the wrong place and are therefore useless in the event of a total coolant loss. I would have thought that Lexus would have known better. Sorry to hear about it :( Good luck :)

Viva La Differance! It would be boring if we were all the same :)

I did...........RC ones are pants compared to these :winky: Can you share your evaluation comparison data with us please? No its commercially sensitive. 800cc injectors lying in wait ! If you want to use bold language such as "RC ones are pants", you should be willing and able to qualify your statements by transparently displaying the data you rely on, otherwise people may think that you don't have any data and you are just blatanty trying to sell your stock by rubbishing the competition.

That is very cool Thanks for that :)

Try RC Engineering in the US :)

How about: Most Slapped Down Member or Trader or Should Really Know Better At That Age Seriously though Mat - well done on a great idea :D

I have seen screen shots of what was said by a certain individual. Utterly disgraceful. To set the record straight: 1. WIM is not a franchise of TDI 2. TDI does not have a franchise network within it's business model. 3. TDI will probably become a franchised outlet for WIM at some point. 4. WIM will have it's own premises as well as a nationwide network of approved franchises sooner or later. I hope this clears up the situation once and for all, and allows Tony to do his good work unimpeded by fools, to provide a valued service to LOC members and create a better life for himself and his family :)

Yup deffo gonna be there unless it blows up (touching wood) lol only thing that i havent budgeted for is new clutch and flywheel and as mine has done nearly 100,000 miles i dont think any launches will be happening lolol, something else i gotta save up for lol How long do you rekon yours will be, saw the engine at TDi didnt look to good :( should be at JAE That's fantasic news Adie :D

Excellent news mate :) That is quite a common prolbem - seen quite a few of those split

If you are close to Altenburg, we have a dealer there who should be able to help you. I can hook you if needed.

You have had the patience of a Saint Adie. It will be a real shame to give up after all this, but it is understandable. I hope you may change your mind when it gets rebuilt properly and you have driven it, so that you can get some enjoyment from it after all the tribulations. I'm happy to give it a once over and check the mapping FOC for you when they have finished with it, if that helps at all :)

without needing to read the whole topic......yep, rob is correct, this is also the same infomation i have had direct from TTE..due to duty cycle, not there physical flow characturistics.and if you look through my posts over the years regarding this i have stated it before, hence why TTE never recomended the pulley upgrade on std cars...... So what you are saying is that the standard injectors are running at max then on a standard car. As the s/c kit, in no way controls the air/fuel mix, its still using the same duty cycle that the standard ecu telling it to yes All the s/c kit is doing is putting more air into the mix. Now if you add pig/back ecu, then this can control the air/fuel better, as has been done on the turbo cars. were not talking about piggyback ecu, you have even said it yourself, the supercharger does not control fueling all it does is ADD more air........exactly, hence running lean. the ecu runs the ijectors at the cycle its programmed to do, no more, hence why TTE who designed the kit, also say the injectors are running at there max duty cycle with the supercharger. remember TTE were never allowed to alter any factory settings, the supercharger had to be a plug and play option, the only addition allowed was a voltage clamp on manifold pressure.... Matt you last statment is the hole point. From factory no car maker is going to have injectors running at max. The is200 is running lean when you add s/c kit, yes is will, but the injectors are still running at factory settings, thats why. So all i am saying is, if you add ecu to control the air/fuel, you will get more air/fuel from the standard injectors, you dont need to add bigger injectors upto 250bhp, just like has been done with the turbo cars If you do that the injectors and the injector drivers are operating outside of their design parameters with regard to performance and reliability so it is to be avoided wherever possible.

Best be very careful with used engines Robin, you may end up with something no better or even worse than what you already have. I've seen it happen so many times, and the warranties are often not worth the paper they're written on so it could end being more costly. If at all possible try and get the engine tested before parting with your hard earned :) I don't know the answer to your Paypal question but I do know a few people who have had their fingers burned (that may be because they were not careful enough).

I have a couple of vouchers here which offer a discount for entry. They are free to anyone that wants them, but you'll to collect today I think.

The Starlet is running on the FCON now. We have a bit of tidying and dealing with some minor issues to do, then it should be on the Rototest tomorrow :)
