Timing being pulled back? With links to the graphs

[Mihnea Cotet]

Claus,


Where did you get that statement about the ECU not using the MAF sensor
above 4200 RPM? I am sure this is false because I have seen more than once
that the fuel/timing maps are a function of MAF vs. RPM, i.e. Lambda= f
(MAF/RPM) or ign adv= f (MAF/RPM) and that they cover the full engine RPM
range. If the MAF sensor had been disabled, then maybe the maps would have
only been from 600 to 4200 RPM, which isn't the case. There are also other
legends about the Motronic systems on these lists, such as the MAP sensor
function, and I mean the MAP sensor isn't involved in anything else but
controlling boost pressure, no timing (vacuum advance/boost retard) and no
enrichment either are based on the MAP sensor in an Audi 20vt I5 Motronic
system. So this leads us to the point where a MAP sensor upgrade isn't
really necessary for people who like to "play" like you with stiffer WG
springs and no WGFV. BTW, where did you get your 2.3 Bar spring from? I'd
like to have one on my engine so I can play a bit with higher boost
settings without having to mess with the chips in my ECU yet.... Yes, I'm
playing with chiptuning software and I know quite a few things about the
way a Motronic works and when I say something I can prove it, otherwise I
won't say it... :)

Thanks for your answer,

Mihnea
