I typically work with LS engines but have been branching out to other platforms. Recently someone with a 1999 Grand Prix with a GTP Swap came to me for a retune. Now, I do not know the person who did this calibration or if they intended it to be permanent or just something to get the vehicle running but damn...
Attached is the original tune, a few logs with the owner driving and me in the passenger seat logging, and the config file for the logs
Vehicle has a ported blower, a smaller pulley, higher compression bottom end from a Series III 3800, long tube headers, catback, intake.
I wasn't looking at the screen during one of the runs, but as soon as the run was over I noticed that the vehicle was running at 120% duty cycle on the injectors! Turns out the vehicle still has stock Grand Prix injectors.
The vehicle experiences severe KR during acceleration but only intermittently.
(I haven't logged again with all spark and knock parameters but will)
Also because this is a non GTP ECU the MAP sensor is only reading vacuum (1 bar). This I am actually a little confused on because there are no enhancements for these PCM's. So if I want to set the vehicle up in SD I have to obtain a GTP PCM or licence a GTP PCM Calibration to flash onto this PCM in addition to purchasing a 2 bar MAP sensor, correct?
Also the owner complains that his plugs are fouled black every 1000 miles or so.
Just thought I should share The owner is currently installing a Wideband sensor so we can get everything sorted out. If anyone else notices other stuff please sound off, I'm sure there's more I didn't include here.
