just wondering if anyone knows if this will work on our 5s.

the EGO sensor needs to have a 1V ouput. im not sure what the output is on ours with out my multimeter here at work with me.

if it doesn't, could i install a 1V EGO sensor closer to the end of my exhaust, e.g near exhaust tip, and hook it up for tuning..?

what you think guys?

this is the one that boag's installed, a thread or 2 below this one

just that you didn't know that coz he STILL hasn't got any PICTURES in the thread

serious???

i gotta read more carefully.. for some reason i thought it was that other one.. little LED light one...

well. i guess its back to JayCar after work and i'll be making that tonight after my date down at the beach

hopefully its not another all nighter.

It took me 2 afternoons to put it together, then 3 months to get around to calibrating the bloody thing. Works a treat though!

I really need pics in my thread...

Boags

don't worry boags

i'll put the thing together tonight and calibrate it tomorrow on the dyno and then put the pics up before lunch. ;)

Calibrating it involves getting a 1V power supply.

Not as easy as it sounds.

Boags

you should be able to rig a 1v supply by using a potentiometer tapped off the main power source. astro should know how to do this as it's the method used to calibrate the dfa which he has already built.

It was another language to me. Astro must be Super Geek! Make sure you get the damn pics up!

Boags

super geek...!!!

eh

yeh i guess

yeh ive bench tested the DFA but haven't installed it on the car and I don't think i'll be able to tonight before the tune tomorrow... but i'll see how i go tonight..

I have a job app to write tonight...!!!

installation takes 10 minutes. come on you can do it. otherwise dyno is a bit of a waste of time isn't it ?

2am

i can't do it

im too sleepy and theres no chance of me installing if before hand

I'll still be on the dyno... i have the HKS VPC to tune...

next week when i get the A/F ratio fuel mixture display and DFA installed i'll do some simple fine tuning until i can get back on the dyno again.

right now i need sleep

have to get up early and do my job app still too..

nup nup.. pulled out early again

always a good thing

just getting extractors installed and going for a power and a/f run just too see what im getting.

gotta install the DFA a/f meters

hey Boag's

im having major probs setting up this little thing...

im up to adjusting VR2 but its just not working!

the instructions say earth the sensor signal so i did and then states that you should either get a close to 0.00 or \" - . \" on the display... then you just have to adjust the vr2 or 3 can't rem off the top of my head, until you get 0.00

its not working..! it stays on \" - . \" aaaaaaaargh and yes i've soldered the 1.8k ohm resistor across the 9pin and earth... BAH

advice and help please...!

Sorry mate. All I did was solder it then hand it to my mate to calibrate. Try adjusting VR3 around to see if you can get it on the scale. Other than that, I must admit, I am useless as tits on a bull when it comes to electronics.

Fatty, is great with this sort of thing, give him a shout out.

Boags

well i have no first hand experience with this particular kit so i don't really have much to add. all i can suggest is that you re-read the calibration instructions and make sure that you follow them to the letter.

sorry, not much help am i ?
