DYNO tune vs STREET tune

[@OkammakO]

You guys should also take a look into safety wiring schemes used in aircraft. The bolt heads or shafts are cross drilled and the nuts to constrain them with wire on one side, and the nuts can be castellated to prevent rotation of all components. The real magic of safety wire steps in when you wire two bolts together, as they are wired in such a way that if one bolt tries to back out it will cause another bolt to tighten. Nordlock washers are great too but safety wire essentially guarantees stuff can not come out.

[@Danielism]

Yeah, nuts in safety will ensure they'll never come off. Also not sure if they know this, but with that crows foot, they need to re calculate their torque as the extra inch extension will change the overall torque value of the wrench. Equations is as follows TW = TA x L / L + A TA = torque applied to the end of the adaptor L = is length between middle of handle and the socket A = length of adaptor

[@cheerdiver]

Your assumption is incorrect. The function of safety wire, is to retain a failed part, in effect reducing potential hazards.

[@Danielism]

@@cheerdiver Not entirely.. safetying Is the process of securing all aircraft bolts, nuts, screws, pins and other fasteners so that they do not work loose due to vibration. If you safety two fasteners together with the first wire going clockwise (tightening) and the second counter clockwise, they will always counter each other. Yes it doesn't prevent total failure but when done right with the right orientation and twists per inch you shouldn't have any issues with fasteners becoming loose.

Fun fact, 9% of the posts on this video (currently) is telling you to use a 90 degree angle on the torque wrench when doing whatever you did (are going to do, as I'm not even there yet in the video). Also, you should build a downpipe with bigger size than the exhaust flange on the turbo according to 2% of the comments. My personal advice to you is to start using oil for rotaries instead of oil for cars with valves and to lock up your turbos at night, as your fabricator seemingly likes to nut in them.

[@Timpan1999]

When using any extension (eg. crows feet) it should always be 90 degrees to ´the side ( Γ ), instead of on the same axis ( | ) because that will allow a higher torque to be applied at the bolt.

I was wondering if someone beat me too this comment, i work in aviation and you use crows feet alot and yes you have to use it at a 90 degree so you dont add leverage

[@CosRacecar]

@@TheMailmanOfSteel Leverage is leverage. If you use the crows foot straight, you're increasing the distance between the nut and the end of the handle, and a longer lever makes it easier to turn. So you end up putting more torque on the nut for the same amount of pressure on the handle. By rotating it to 90 degrees sideways, the distance from the end of the handle to the pivot only changes by a very small amount.

Hey Rob, There is a software update from Fueltech that is supposed to fix the boost pressure fluctuations

[@nobodyspecial5026]

it has nothing to do with that. the entire issue is that it’s completely the wrong turbo for the application, even the smallest 0.83 AR turbine housing on this turbo has more flow capability than a 600 whp 13B requires. At the present 350 whp output it’s so grossly oversized that it’s never going to be controlled properly with two WGs. it’s a bit sad really; so much resources, yet so little understanding of the basics. .

Yes, I did watch it to the end. He admits it’s the wrong everything including turbo, but he never came around to stating anything about the boost control issue being because of that. He left it as just the software and a lack of understanding on how it works. So 350 whp is 46.5 lb/min compressor flow on a rotary and it was 21 lbs of boost (~2.45 PR), but the kicker is the IAT is over 200°F(!!!). There’s nothing efficient going on here. The *reasons* for choosing the G40 was wrong from the very beginning and that was never actually addressed. Nor was it stated that it was the reason for the boost control issue. Again, it has two WGs coupled with a turbine that is operating way below it’s appropriate flow energy level. It’s like having flow control valves on a 20” water pipe that only has a trickle running through it. There’s no way to control flow in that situation. It’s pretty much either on or off. All the PID knowledge and understanding in the world is not going to help. .

[@socallmechris]

As a subscriber to HP Academy and Evans performance Academy, I learned a ton more about tuning from EPA over HPA. One of the best things Jeff does is walk you through every function of your ECU and explain to you what it does and how it works. EPA is my go-to when I need information on a specific topic, like Closed loop PID controls. Its absolutely worth a temp subscription to try it out.

[@eduardogarcia3049]

Rob, a good PID baseline is to think of your P gain as how much you want the output changed 1:1. Then the Integral gain is set to around 3 orders of magnitude less than the P gain value. You can set the derivative gain to zero to start as tuning all 3 at once can cause a lot of chasing your tail. If the boost overshoots on the first peak, your P is too high, so set it lower. If it takes too long to get to the boost then P is too low. Once you get that first peak correct to not overshoot and still reach target, you tweak the interval gain. If you see oscillations over time, you integral gain is too high causing it to over correct. 90% of the time the derivative gain can be left at zero and a PI controller works fairly well for most applications.

Love your videos. Quick comment on the PID tuning coming from a Controls Engineer. The problem is that Fueltech can't provide default gains for that particular system, because systems can vary extremely widely. From 3 ports to 4 ports to CO2 dual solenoids it's hard. Then, add to that, you may have a quick responding turbo or slow responding turbo. The gains will be very different for all those cases. I agree the "wastegate pressure" is stupid. All you can really do is just try different gains until you figure it out. Unfortunately it is hard to tune using traditional controls methods because it's an engine and it can be difficult to get it to chill when the conditions are changing so rapidly. Keep making awesome videos!

Exactly. I think the current setup with an even smaller twin-scroll exhaust housing should be able to get them an engine with way more low-end torque than rotaries typically manage and hopefully it won't flow restrict when they get up to 8.5-9k RPM. I think at this point in the engine development, they're at a really good spot to leave it, at least when it comes to turbo designs. Injectors and fuel pumps might need to be tweaked as they retune the ECU based on the new turbo exhaust housing, but it's really getting to a great spot for it to be driven regularly. And that's really the hard part. Accepting that your car is, for all extents and purposes, done and you should refrain from tinkering with it and just enjoy it.

There are many things using a PID loop where you have to just learn it to get the balance right if you step outside the box. I struggle with it myself, I understand it just enough to get frustrated. I understand the theories, but struggle to tune a drone with a fresh PID tune. You might take a look into the history of PID loops, it helped me understand how they function. PID loops were first used for stabilizing ship rudders with mechanical systems in the 1800s. For that matter if you know any drone racers they might be able to help you understand PID tuning theories.

Though, as a very experience design, development engineer, it is clear to me, that i would choose FuelTech first. There may some specific applications which others may be necessary. But, my view from the information, is that Anderson, Luis and the team will help with any type of use and also either work together to develop the solutions or also be clear enough and willing to determine another system could be better currently. My hope, is that through these comments, Rob will actually contact Anderson, Luis, etc. at FuelTech to help, assist, aid, determine his needs, solutions, etc. If he already knew, he could and would have contacted them while he was at the dynometer measurement or even prior.as well. Thus, far he as used his typical attempts to 'figure out' things on his own using his 'trial and error' process - which has the same results = FAILURE He 'thinks' he is learning but continues the same failure path process. He should know better, but clearly does not. Sad for actually such a person with great thinking abilities, capabilities, imagination, creativity, determination, persistence,. All The Best Sincerely

As a Chemical Engineer who does process control, PID loops are amazing if you can tune them. there are many methods, look up what the P, I and D terms do. You can literally "predict the response vs setpoint" as you "wanted" and control using that. Be very careful though to not get unstable behavior.

i have used nordlock for years. not single failure/loosing nut when use them. Those works well in manifolds turbos etc but allso chassis parts.

At this point i think its fair to say that im addicted to your videos

[@Barrabass]

if you want to some really good locking nuts look up sinco copper locking nuts. they are amazing to work with even after 2 years of high heat use they come off really easy

Today, April 6 2022, Rob Dahm first learned about LEDs low power consumption. Welcome to 2010, Rob.

We tried using those nordlock washers at my R&D shop, a bit bigger though, they were for 1-3/4" studs and didn't have good luck with them. We also had them in a seawater environment which probably didn't help. I hope they work for you!

P.S. I absolutely LOVE your "SAVE FERRIS '86" T-Shirt! Where did you get that sweet peice of SWAG?

[@craigland8632]

great job Rob!

[@mortuiambulante4683]

I would love some sort of tuning guide video or series about the topic as a whole, when-what-why type of stuff. Tuning fuel, air and boost maps and knowing when the car is too rich, signs of too lean running, EGT values and so on

I hope Anderson from Fueltech watches this video.

I've waited for an upload all week, 😥 I can relax now

Nord lock washers are a God send for sealing a turbo manifold! Can also use aircraft wire but need to drill holes thru each bolt and nut

[@deltacharlieecho4732]

maybe it's dumb but any car or bike I buy to work on gets an immediate LED overhaul. I've never measured the amp improvement but I'm glad that this video validated my process.

Those nuts and bolts that holds the turbo will will go trough the ultimate test. I have stand next to a friends turbo II RX-7 with the hood open and it felt way hotter than my 92 eclipse gxs.
