Hi All,

Welcome to my blog!

I'm going to attempt to list the mods completed on my car so far and any future mods as I do them.

GD sti top mount I/c fitting

Posted 26-12-2009 at 12:53 AM by Rossco (Trials & Tribulations of Modding a version 6 STI)

Today I fitted up the GD Sti topmount I aquired from Brent.

All went swimmingly as I had modded my mounts to fit a GD Wrx cooler (my v6 sti one was covered with bent fins).

One small drama ....The Sti's factory strut brace no longer fits... Bugger!

Time to buy a whiteline one........

Using Excel to adjust fuel maps with a target AFR map

Posted 22-12-2009 at 12:26 AM by Rossco (Trials & Tribulations of Modding a version 6 STI)

I stumbled across an excellent tool to aid in the adjustment of fuel mapping on the power Fc.

It's an Excel spread sheet that allows you to drop your current fuel map, target AFR map and logged AFR's into their respective cells where by it spits out a corrected fuel map to correspond to the target afr map you have specified....

Original fuel map

Datalogit & Wide band O2

Posted 21-12-2009 at 11:35 PM by Rossco (Trials & Tribulations of Modding a version 6 STI)

After enjoying the cars new found power & responsiveness for a couple of months........I wanted more!

Having previously tuned my own cars (predominantly Mazda rotories, both N/a & turbos) using either Microtech or Wolf ecu's, I began to look into a PC based interface to allow me to see all of the hidden settings in the Power Fc and to log things like lambda, boost, injector duty & temps for track days....and tweak my tune as I add more to the car.

Enter...
