8 seconds for 8 grand ( Hopefully)

[opindown]

mate nice work. this thing will be nuts when its done. beautiful work. as always

[Surt]

Best regards and best wishes Ben! Awesome!! What compression ratio you're gonna set on? And which ecu? My budget is $2-3k, but I nevertheless gonna have separate oil system for my ihi rhf3 vibd turbine and cooling mist water injection, 'cept an IC [}:)].

Ben you are a bastard.

Comp is 9:1, Ecu is ViPEC V44 these are only new to the market & I haven't used one before but it seems like a good thing RRP is $1800.

[EXBEN]

I managed to finish off the plenum tonight.
So far I've spent $7145 with all the major purchases done, so Im still on track.

Some budget gap filler for 1800 bucks (almost one/third of 8 grand) mate! But looks like a hard boiled stuff... I'm on more budget diy megasquirt ii:)

The idea was to spend the money where it's going to benefit me the most, & tune-ability is one area I didn't want to skimp.;)

Well, I usually try to keep things as simple as possible, that's what I've found about msii, great tune-ability at fair price as well...
I've got a stupid question eating me for a quite awhile... Can one do without an ecu, using a laptop directly for f.i. managing? The algorythm is quite simple, programming language is the same. and it takes only about 10 sensors to be corresponded[?][?][?] I've asked programmers and motorists, none's answered me exactly, just 'maybes'.
What do you think Ben?

[EXBEN]

Im the wrong person to ask, but I could imaging strapping a laptop to the bike would probably make it not last long.

[Deano]

looks great ben well done.

Do you mean vibration? But there're so-called military note-books, water and shock resistant, blokes use them on 4x4 and quads. I just see a lot of advantages of using laptop directly:
1. you have to have it anyway for datalogging an ecu, so using laptop directly can save money on an ecu;
2. you can tune and monitor everything in real time;
3. you get an universal super-informative dashboard, with such features as a rear view camera and gps (not sayin'bout watching movies and listening to music:D), but others features as a boost control, a/f ratio, temp, rpm, etc;
4. laptops, I guess, run on more powerful processors...

But of course I don't mean just to strap it to the tank [8D], but to disassemble it to three blocks connected by cables, using an apt lcd and a keyboard from some htc communicator or smth.


That's my way of [bush]engineering: I look at a thing and ask myself and people, can it work in a different way or an application? :D:D:D

And then, how to make it to work in a different way?[?][?][?]

And then, I make it...

[RUSS M8]

more beautiful work there Ben, can't wait to see that thing out on the strip! I presume it will be at the fools run...

[skiddz]

very nice dude

i checked out the ecu's website, i likey plus vvti control, data logging, the closed loop idle, this thing makes autronic and motec look kids toys

awesome build, keep it up? :)

[el sammo]

lookin fantastic man!

mate, if you can figure it out, do it. i reckon its possible.


oh and ben. EXCELLENT as always.

[nelpd96]

Surt,
There is no reason that you couldn't do it up I would be running it off a Linux based system as opposed to windows. I have to be honest though given that it is essentially a set of look up tables it would be easier to load it up into a pic rather than using a laptop persay.

Cheers
Paul

On a side note Ben, Adaptronic is a pretty good piece of kit, I have been using one on my car. Price wise they are very good as well. Check it out at www.adaptronic.com.au

[mr.zxr]

Lookin good mate. i really like the lock-up clutch. if you had a bit more cash in the kitty you could make a clear cover to show off your handy work.

Thanks for a hint Paul and for encouraging Pete, I'll check it 'bout linux and others. It's gonna take a while for reckoning, so now I keep megasquirtin' :)

[fimpBIKES]

great stuff ben (as always)

looking forward to feeling it rush past at casino!

[EXBEN]

Well it runs as of tonight.... now for the dyno[8D]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=InPDxKFHVW4

[opindown]

excellent stuff Ben. BTW I got asked if your taking Judge to AFR this year. are you?

[EXBEN]

yep.

[opindown]

will let him know. said he would go if the judge was. ;)

[latheboy]

Where did you get that AFR metre from :D
I'm interested to see how you go with ECU

[Deano]

good stuff ben. well done

[RED ZX]

I WANT ONE!!!!!!!!

damn talented people.
Cant wait to see this thing run up on the dyno for a power run once its tuned. It already sounds nice and sharp.

[zx12argh]

varoom! Tell ya what ben since you are taking more then one bike down - I'll do you a favour and cruise around on whatever you are not riding ;)
I'm generous like that.

[Jockney Rebel]

sounds cool that kwaker fo yours ,,mate ..something else for me to avoid in casino lol

[Stocky]

At least you took it downstairs to start it LOL

[EXBEN]

Well after many late nights it's finally ready to go to fools, it's only tuned up to 15psi which makes just on 250rwhp, we were running into fuel delivery issues after this so that will have to do for now.
After fools I'll sort the fueling & wind up the boost.;)

http://www.streetfighters.com.au/forum/upload/986160610200190.jpg

[EXBEN]

I've still got to sort the ride height & fine tune the shifter but that will have to wait till fools because the driveway & work just aint long enough........
http://www.streetfighters.com.au/forum/upload/986160610220140.jpg

[zx12argh]

Woohoo - it lives! Top stuff Ben. Can't wait to see it in action.

[BANDITROD]

good work man...i was wondering about this the other day ....

[hooligan]

now all you need's the 8 seconds.
looks good, Ben.

[timbo]

Mate that looks fast just sitting there.Top job

weak excuse theres at least 50 metres there to sort the shifter;)

like everyone said, all you need now is 8 seconds[8D]

IMHO lappies are too big and use too much power for something like this. Also are a bit fragile.

Some bloke in SA has a TRX / R1 hybrid he calls the TR1X that has a megasquirt sending info to a Nano ITX computer of some kind. Here it is on OCAU MC:

Looks very good Ben, low 8's i recon..... with some practice and some suspension sorting.

Can you put Kawasaki on the tank please Ben? I want Ozkat to be 100% sure what the bike that just passed him on the back wheel at the 1000' mark was ;)

[miniman1]

So how'd this turn out?? What times u get out of it???

[EXBEN]

HaHa... oh yeah that neglected thing sitting in the corner, Sold the computer cause I wasn't happy with it, changing the throttle bodies/Injectors for something better, stole the motor for Judge but got new motor off ebay to go in, but basicly lack of time cause 2010 was a C*!#T of a year & business comes before fun. Hopefully 2011 is more prosperous & I find the time to play with my toys... :)
