Am I seeing 30 deg advance with light load and 2000rpm on the T2 map??

I suspect that the timing is conservative, looking for opinions on it since I'm

a noobie in this area. I can say that the corrections are all zero during

normal operation, there's only one advance correction, everything else

is retard - ie I'm pretty sure what you see above is what would be

measured at the crank. I can also say that on one aftermarket tuned

chip I've seen, the leading timing is basically untouched but the split,

particularly mid range, has been drastically reduced.



Datalogger: I can log timing already with the 2.0 proto I'm running but its

not measured at the crank, so I'm not 100% sure that the offset is correct.

Once the weather clears up a bit here, I'll run some logs.

the factory timing has to be conservative, they cant have people put the wrong gas in it and it blows up.

this makes me wonder, if anyone is using 87 in their fd with everythign else stock, if not whos is up for this https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

my buddy ran an fd with a dp and midpipe for years, everything else was stock, and the car was fine. it got driven HARD too

timing on a rotary engine is so crucial..As lynn stated he runs no centrifugal advance, but for a streetcar that is a no,no. I have found that the best way to find best timing is trial and error. I did study Mazda's timing adjustments before I came up with my own. N/A.. turbo low boost.. turbo high boost and N/A plus nitrous requires all together different timing adjustments. cruising with no load.. then the timing split between leading and trailing is so important. I did try to write some valuable info. on this. but I just gave up. to much to cover and I sometimes get tired.. then the possibility of the site getting hacked has me nervous. tons of info. vanishes in a matter of nothing.. sucks..

FOR THE LOVE OF THE ROTARY, please!

Please Ito san, we are like some hungry little rotary birds waiting for you to feed us.

I understand what you are saying, but can you just do one chapter at a time like how you used to do it? Please? https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...O_DIR#>/11.gif

i'd also love to read about your timing experiences.

most of the info got restored, and i don't think we should give up now.

i understand that you are busy, but if you happen to have some free time and energy, dont forget us "hungry little rotary birds" https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png

RPM varies from 1024 to 7168 for the TII and 1024 to 6144 for NA.

Load is a little more complicated, basically its air mass flow as read

by the AFM and corrected for ATP and air temp. I'll dig up my conversion

for the TII (to kg/hr).



Mike, how's plain text for ya https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

Hey guys,



I just became aware of this post and took delivery of transposing it through Excel and then into the Haltech software for a better idea of the layout of the timing values, and also, looking at the graphs that Henrik also did (great job by the way Henrik, hat's off to you), im able to see that even though (for example, on the N332 leading map) it has good resolution, 19x25 sites, the timing really is all over the place, going by my Haltech tuning experience of almost 7 years, the maps im used to seeing for rotaries are a lot more smoother and not as wild as these resulting maps you've got here. Now, since i only did this on the laptop, and didnt actually load this to a vehicle yet, so i have no hard evidence of this, usually such an extreem changing map like this is almost very likely that the engine will not run smooth, you will actually feel the transition throughout the RPM range of the engine running somewhat rough, or in other cases just ping its self to death.



I will try to find a car to load this map onto, as well as the split and see how it runs, and will try to give you guys actual data to crunch on. Thanks again for the map translation. Any chance you can get it done with actual load variables for a better idea of the actual range of the map?



Later,

yah we tried it with the cosmo timing map, and its not pretty. on the cosmo map "load" wasnt labled in units, and its like henrik says, afm voltage+air temp, so i'm not sure it translates directly (linearly) into a map sensor value.
