"Hello, I have a 2.2 Cobalt"

"What's a Cobalt?"

lawl

 

I know dude, im just proving that the shop or the user is full of **** in a nice way =P Im sure as hell not waiting for HPTuners or SCT. I;ve already got tuning worked out..

 

oh ok gotcha.

These threads confuse me sometimes...don't know why.

 

Just got a reply from them =P



Hi,



He either spoke to a non tech employee that didn’t know or misunderstood, we don’t have tuning support for this car yet.

Hopefully soon

Allen

 

yeah...... methinks it's time to start diving into megasquirt.

 

there is two turbo solstice's on barnes wheatons lot here in coquitlam

 

Yeah, but what about timing? cant pull timing with MSII yet right? probably should ask elvis. i know he said they are either developing something or you gotta use something else along with it.

 

You have dashed my hopes Sw4y... but atleast this thread can be laid to rest.

 

if you 2.2's wanna tune, go get the AEM unit, AEM is a dependable company,one of the biggest aftermarket companys there is. they have there own forums to help you out along the way...it has everything you need...so either put up or shut up

 

ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooohhhhhh someones in trouble...

 

u know i think GM payed off HPT so that it would force people to buy the SS/SC and not just buy a cheap one and make fast. lol who agrees with me lol

 

i doubt gm gives a **** about hpt

 

as if he gave away an industry secret... *insert eye roll here*

i'm now researching megasquirt. :p

 

no **** right, every post i see from that dude he's being an ******* to somone

 

so whats the deal with megasquirt? anyone got a link?

any of the piggy backs able to tune an auto tranny yet?

 

the part that was not understood was that i didn't read that part and only read what he replied to my question and dont worrie i already deleted the post. sry pple make mistakes at least i corrected the problem

 

what about fuel cutoff for the rev limiter and governor? can megasquirt alter these? if so I might as well look into Megasquirt as well since it seems to be the only reason solution at this point. As if I was expecting anything different anyway driving a Saturn

 

yes and yes. http://www.megasquirt.info

 

well depends.

if you use the MS as a fuel only standalone then you may have a rev limiter cause im not sure if it cuts spark.

but you can use the ms to set rev limiters using a fuel cut so the ms can cut fuel at certain rpms.

it's just a standalone dude. the stock ecu won't control what the ms will control

example if you use the ms for fuel, the stock computer cannot control any fuel settings because it's not connect to it anymore.

 

The rev limiter from understanding is just a fuel cut, not ignition.

As far as speed limiter, because you guys have a electronic throttle body, I don't know if the computer tries to use that to slow you down.

If you truely wanted to you could use it as a full standalone as well.

You could literally take out your stock computer and wire the sensors that you want to use through megasquirt. Thing about megasquirt is that it's a very open sourced and evolving unit to use. People are constantly coming up with different ways to use it.

I have a friend with a Fiero with an ECOTEC swap who is using the Megasquirt as a full standalone to control everything he needs.

Only issue is that this isn't street legal for the most part.

 

i thought sct already had tuning for the 2.2....? I thought someone was using a livewire. Is that not true?

 

i got an 04 ion dude so i dont have that drive by wire crap.



i also just got the MS2 with the new v3.57 board

 

the only thing about using megasquirt is you WILL throw codes. Whatever you have the megasquirt control, the stock computer won't be connected to it anymore, so you won't pass emissions if you use the megasquirt.

 

oh okay that makes sense because I want cams!! i need to fix my power delivery

Elvis you need to hurry up and get to AZ, I'm terrified of wiring this junk together

but looks like I've got about 935933 worth of pages to read through...

 

You should go to www.rs-autosport.com. He sells pre-built megasquirt units and pre-made wire harnesses. All the wires are individually labeled and it makes it 100x easier to install.
