openecu get together..??

ok...so i just bought a laptop and is very interested in learning how to tune my own car using openecu...i know i just download the programs online on enginuity.org but would like for someone with alot of experince to show me the the basics on how to tune...i'm moderately computer friendly and a fast learner...maybe there are some other members out there that would like this too...

 

I certainly would

 

Me, I'm still learning, but gained alot of knowledge, esp from enginuity and osecuroms

Tom is pretty good with it

 

I would love to learn and possibly get my car tuned!!

 

grimmspeed can host an event if you guys can get tom, mike, etc to agree to be teachers for a night.

 

I'd would be there for sure!!! I know 83projectbrat will too
DO IT

 

perhaps a move to the event section?

dont suppose anyone has figured out the openecu for the 2.2ls yet?

 

I'm fairly knowledgeable on the '06-'07 WRX ECU's, but that's simply from tuning my own car.

With that said, I would be more then willing to share my limited knowledge. A get together sounds fun. Personally, I don't think anything beats reading the enginuity.org and openecu forums. Those guys really know their stuff.

For you guys interested: Provided you have an understanding of how your turbo'd motor works, the basics of tuning aren't incredibly hard to understand. However, there are many, many, maps you can change on each Subaru ECU, and even the guys over at Enginuity still do not understand what everything does. The OpenECU project as a whole is still a work in progress. Keep that in mind.

 

What ECU would you run with that motor? ECUFlash has support for a number of JDM STI's.

 

Knew you chime in at some point wage Btw, what is the data cable you use to hook up to your laptop and where can you get it?

I purchased the one that works on all Subaru's, but you can save about $10 by just purchasing one for all Subaru DBW cars.

 

I definately want to be a part of this.

 

dido. i would love to attend something like this aswell.

 

The stock 2.2l ECU.

 

Well then you're s.o.l. for now.

 

I just read this over on the enginuity site and couldn't agree more.

 

Lets do it!!! i would love to learn and possibly bring some Open Ecu knowledge to the rochester area..... Date and time??? ill bring cash!!

 

I bought a cable about 2 weeks ago and haven't done anything but update to the latest stock map and a small amount of logging. While I have taken a bit of time to read enginuity/openecu forums, putting it all together can be a brainfull. I would really enjoy the opportunity to pick some brains and get some guidance.

 

I would love to learn how to tune the car with open source. If i ever get my car.

 

so a get together(class session) at grimmspeed sounds fine...maybe grimmspeed should sell the cable too so i can just buy it there...killing two hondas with one turbo sort of thing...hehe...

 

ok..how come i can't run enginuity..??..i have the new vista sh**...help me out..

 

I am unsure if Enginuity works for Vista, but I think it should. You'll need the latest version of Java, though.

 

ok..i have the java program..but when i try to run enginuity...i get this...

java.io.FileNotFoundException:C:\Program Files\ Enginuity\lib\j3dcore-ogl.dll(Access is Denied)..what's the problem..??

 

As the error states, it can't access the file. Check if it's there in that directory and it's read permissions. If it's there, it should allow everyone to read it.

 

Most likely due to Vista's new user control. Run the application as an admin.

 

I'd imagine UAC would have to be turned off completely.

 

I'd do some Q&A with what I know at Grimmspeed in exchange for pizza and Coke.

 

I have almost no experience with 32 bit ECU's, BTW.

 

Well, we're the opposite, then . I've flashed a total of 1 16 bit ECU.

 

look at you whoring yourself out for cocaine. tisk tisk.

 

Mad libs!

 

ill bring the beer... maybe thats not a good idea if were gonna be driving and all... but if need be, i will bring it...

 

mmmm......beer. Now I'm interested, lol.
