Speeduino ECU Tuning Guide | Part 1: Project creation & Sensor calibration | Megasquirt, KDFI etc.

[@throttlebuddies6356]

i am tying to explain as thorough as possible because that has not really been done before as deeply, so If you hae any questions regarding things in the video, feel free to ask here or, if you hae more complex questions about tuning, your project or need your car tuned, feel free to hit me up instagram.com/_throttlebuddies/ To show support for what i do + some benefits, check out my patreon: patreon.com/Throttlebuddies?L

I'm trying to deepen my understanding on the subject because my knowledge about the platform and tuner studio is very limited. Your videos are exactly what I was looking for. Thank you!

I just found your channel and it is exactly what I was looking for with regards to setting up a GT17 @ 7-10 psi turbo on a Kawasaki VN900, I was looking at going to a Haltech 550 but the cost after adding in a wideband controller was prohibitive, I looked at Speeduino and Microsquirt and was amazed at how far they have come with their DIY setup and self tuning aid,. I just hope the Denso sensors on the Kawasaki are all compatable with the Microsquirt, EG: Crank, air temp, air pressure, water, vehicle speed and TP sensors, It also has a couple of safety sensors like clutch, side stand and fall down, I know I will have to add boost control and a wide band o2 sensor and will follow your tuning guide as I like that you are straight to the point. Thank you.

[@throttlebuddies6356]

in theory any sensors should be at least configurable with restistance to ground if they arent preset. You can measure that at different points of temperatures. As for crank and cam sensors you might have to look into what it is exactly. the speeduino has a built in pressure and barometric sensor so i would just ose that. also it has a input for wideband 0-5v signal or an onboard controller if configured that way.

Thank you! Subbed and I'll be checking out your patron!

Thank you very much! There will be more benefits in the future!

Thank you for these videos please keep them comming, they are a lot of help. Could you go over the manual configuration of the speeduino, ua4c if you have it. I.e what junper for thay setting and if a vr conditioner is needed. Im in the us trying to get an ls started on the ua4c. Ive got spart injectors working and working out the kinks.

[@throttlebuddies6356]

Thank you! as for jumpers depends on the unit you buy they might not be configured to use jumpers depending on how they are built. the vr conditioner in my case was just an add on board that i ordered on the site together with the ecu

Looking for some help with my speeduino ocelot. it does not have a pin for fuel pressure so i am trying to use a spare input pin for this. when i select the fuel pressure and tell it what pin to use it does not work. when i supply 5v to test it the gauge does not respond? what am i doing wrong? i wire pin A9 to a 5v source and assign pin A9 to the fuel pressure sensor. then I add the gauge on screen. but nothing happens.

Ever do any all motor k series

[@throttlebuddies6356]

havent done that in perticular, tho i have tuned many different engines. also some purely built NA cars.

@@throttlebuddies6356 I'm building a k20a3 with VTech locked it has vtc and I'm having a hard time trying to wire it to the speeduino and how to control it I've had some tell me you can only control it on closed loop Im very new to this it's my first ecu project been a V8 carb guy ally life (52) and trying to gain as much knowledge as I can but no info on k series just missing tooth crank sensor and one tooth cam please help maybe get me In the right direction if you can

[@throttlebuddies6356]

@@charlestorruella8591 vtec in closed loop doesnt make much sense. Usually you have a table where you control it on open loop with set values depending on rpm and load (tps or map that is) if you want to send me a dm on insta, maybe ill be able to help you

[@murraymadness4674]

are you then responsible for any damage if hired?

[@throttlebuddies6356]

depends. while tuning and if anything goes wrong there and it is my fault yes, but nor do i or would somebody else guarantee that after this because these ecus do not have enough safety measures built in to keepthe engine from blowing up for example if you were full hrottle for like 20 minutes without an oil cooler or whatever..

[@murraymadness4674]

@@throttlebuddies6356 lol you give a disclaimer about damage and then say you can be hired. Just teasing you and adding a comment. I have a few speeduino boards for my racecar..that I sold. I think my next one will be electric.

[@throttlebuddies6356]

@@murraymadness4674 yeah that disclaimer was more like for the videos any changes that anybody does themselves haha when i get hired to tune whole different story obviously lol 🤣

Hi mate, I have a couple of questions, but I'm not on other platforms. Do you have any mail where we can chat? Then I can explain to you my goals and what I've got so far.
