[s-cars] Pinging w/MTM 1+

[Ned Ritchie]

Scott,

Unless you start with a computer with power off you will only get it
sorted out about the time you've used all your good gas.  It will take
about 50 starts to get the timing adaptation right for the new fuel.

Instead pull the power fuses to the computer or unplug it and allow the
capacitance charges to fade away.  Five minutes is about long enough.

Our stage III+ is similar to the MTM 1+ but with less timing which
translates to less ping.  Still some ping, but not the scary ping.

MTM Stage 1+, Stromung, Amsoil Panel filter, 91 octane, 60-65 degrees
ambient.  At WOT, I ping in 3rd gear around 4000k.  After a run or so,
I'll
ping in 2nd gear.  I loaded up 1/3 tank of 101 octane (on top of 2/3 91)
and
still have the prob.  I'm wary to test to throughly, as I back off as
soon
as I detect it, but I drove about 20 miles w/the new mixture before
testing
it.

Ideas of what's going on?  Is the pea-shooter is just heating up the air
too
much?  Would an FMIC solve (BTW, is the Mike P FMIC ready for public
consumption??) ?  I do plan on going RS2 at some point, but I'd like to
at
least enjoy this :-)

I saw Cody's post on AW a while back about the same thing but no real
answers.

Thanks for any info/ideas.
