62133, data logger, i think i need one
Posted by ryan_siefring23, Dec-13-03 09:51 AM
i really don't know that much about them, really i probably know nothing, i did a search but i didn't see much. anyways, i'm thinking i need one to help tune my car. i really want to do my tunning right.

also is there anything i can read to help me tune my car better. i really have no experance in doing this and my car runs like hell.
thanks

the datalogger does NOT have any control whatsoever over your ECU or your tuning. all it is is a means to get the engine parameter information, in conjunction with a SAFC it is very very helpful in tuning but just getting a datalogger wont do jack for you, it'll just tell you what your motor doing and you wont be able to change it.

do a search, theres a TON of information on 02 voltage, EGT's at wide open throttle, timing, etc...

well if you dont know what the paramters mean then its not gunna mean jack to you. i'd get the logger with an AFC if you wanted to do some baseline tuning
