First of all, thanks for OLS map file and very informativie responses. This is where i'm at :
Me and my wife got Porsche Cayenne 2004 about year ago and we decided to have some fun with it. We have zero experience of turbos or tuning in general. This is first i'm ever looking into ECU maps. I have KESS available and that was used to read my current ECU software. Current configuration is (we already popped one piston, and pulle engine out, so this is part 2 going now
:
- Turbo (0.5bar is what we wan't, currently goes to 0.65bar)
- WB O2 sensors (stock) in exhaust manifold (LTFT, STFT seem fine)
- Larger bosch injectors 06A906031J. These output around 25-30% more than stock (this because of E85)
- Only E85 is used
- Stock secondary cat fitted
- Stock MAF (yes, it clips at high rev)
- Intercooler
- No ECU modifications
Car runs fine, there are no real issues with part throttle or anything. It's "OK" and it's much more peppy than stock, much better to drive actually. I have been driving it for few month and most of my issues are caused by shoddy work i made with exhaust etc.
However, we ended up on a dyno and we can clearly see that torque peaks at 400Nm and it feels like it pulls ignition and really hard tries to keep it limited (torque curve is really wavy). This also limits top horsepower to just shy over stock (+30 or so).
What i'm looking here, is to rise torque limit +20-30% on WOT. And i was thinking that playing around ith torque maps would help me out.
I can confirm that sometimes when pulling hard, transmission goes to 'limp mode', in this case, it works just like normally would, but there is indication on dashboard about it. When pulling you can feel the torque limiting and power comes in 'waves'. This could be because of it actually slipping. Exact same transmission is used on a turbo s cayenne putting out near 500hp. I can maybe pull whole transmission ECU from junked turbo s cayenne, that should fix that issue if there are torque limit going on inside there.
I really need to read what you tell me and think about it.
Just to add : Stock values for this car are 250Hp/310Nm. It's exact same engine found from R32, Phaeton, Touareg etc.
Additional note 2 : It's not important to get this car just right, it's a project car and always will be. And when it comes to how much experience i have with VAGs and na->fi modifications, i do have basic undestanding and have done some research. I have basic undestranding how ME system strategy goes, load vs torque, ignition, fueling all that.
