PBD datalogging config? Where to get one?

[furiousfuria]

TBH I dont think the transbrake will even be useful without alot more upgrades (axles, driveshaft, slicks etc) or on the street but I still figured why not get it. It may be standard with their auto tunes im not even sure.

I didnt get an intake I just put a K&N filter in my stock airbox.

I just got my tune, did you get yours yet? This data logging looks kind of confusing to do

Yea setting up the parameters to log on the Nguage is a huge pain. Ive told them this and requested that they make a logging config or just add it to the firmware but they havent replied about that at all.

I got my tune finally, it was actually sent to lethalperformance and I wasnt CC'd on the email and PBD didnt respond at all , so I emailed lethal asking about it and they found they had it... Maybe because I had requested that they add the tunes to the device before shipping in the order (option on the order form) but that didnt happen - I received the Nguage with nothing on it.


Datalogged the 93 octane tune , got a revised edition of it, datalogged that and it ran great but at times it seemed to kill power in 2nd gear for like a solid second... I had traction control off and may have been spinning - advancetrac on but I was straight so I dont know why it did that. I also apparently hit 8210 RPM at one point paddle shifting during logging on this... I wonder what the rev limiter is,, that seemed a bit high to me if my logs are reading right in my VCM suite.

Then I ran my gas tank low (below 0 miles to empty), put in 15+ gallons of e85 , loaded the e85 tune and logged that for about 20 mins. Seemed to run great too. Not as noticible difference in power from the 93 tune as I thought but maybe a bit more power it was hard to tell since the 93 seemed like a huge jump from the stock tune in terms of power. Ran great but I did a 2nd gear pull going full throttle at 2k and at 6k rpm it killed power again and I dont think I was spinning at this time... traction control was off but advancetrac was on again. Not sure why its killing power at these times. Waiting for Trevor to respond.

If anyone has a Nguage datalogging layout for VCM suite i would definitely appreciate that.

Heres a link to my e85 datalog, the power kill in 2nd gear is at the very end https://www.dropbox.com/s/d51rizecmzhzq3j/log0017.csv?dl=0

You're supposed to log in 3rd or 4th. All nannies should be disabled too. My car spun on the stock tune trying to do a pull in 2nd. Even in 3rd, the torque control is still active.

Tunes can't be preloaded for 18+, as they need the stock file to write your tune.

Also, don't try to paddle shift. Just give the shifter a light bump back into drive.


That datalog is way too long. Get the car up to proper operating temps. Do your 30sec idle log. Stop. Get your rev log. Stop. Get your 5min drive log. Stop. Get to 3rd gear around 2500, start log. Do your pull. Either stay in 3rd, slow down and then do another pull. Or as soon as you stab the gas bump the shifter into drive.

Hmm interesting.

Well, I no longer disable advancetrac after I hit a pole head on in my 630 rwhp cts-v but id like mine to run well with only tcs disabled but advancetrac to not kick on when it shouldnt. View attachment 323569

Heres what I did to my V no lift shifting 1-2 with everything disabled :( :

NA, your car isn't making near the power. Coyote power is much more manageable too.

With your current setup, you shouldn't have any issues with all nannies disabled and doing a pull in 3rd.

Both of my S550s go very straight when they're spinning. My 2015 was sketchy in the rain cause it was either on slicks or NT05s

 

[Zinc03svt]

Lol. Agreed, s550’s go pretty straight spining through the gears.

Andy, take out to Mexico (hwy) around 40-45 mph drop it down to 3rd in S on shifter (start log) go wot and move shifter back into D and run out 3-5 gear. Or as far as you safely can. My tuner did not request the idle and slow drive crap.

Hoping to have my 18 intake mani and tune put in this weekend. I'll post an update then with how the datalogging goes and car feels

Hi guys can someone shed some light on datalogging pbd ngauge, i have flashed the new tune and click on datalogging but it wont work.
I cant find all the things that they want a "star" to do it manually.Surely there has to be a easier way??

I never found any easier way. It is surprisingly annoying to get it setup how they want it. I dont know why they dont just have some datalogging config, I complained about this to them.

I think I was missing a couple of the things they requested to star also but it eventually worked out even with the missing variable. But damn setting up the nguage for their logging is a pain, what I did was print the list of what they wanted starred then scrolled through the variables, each variable on the nguage I would scan the sheet and cross it off if it was on the list and star it on the nguage. Took a while. I almost made a video about it but didnt get around to that yet.

 

[ManBearPig]

Does PBD not ask for fuel trim data to be logged?

 

[crimsonmustang]

it is a big pain as its in no type of order ,I will print it out what they want 'star' and go through and tick them off. Which things were missing that couldnt 'star'??

Just got my Ngauge and first calibration, and now setting up the PID's for data logging. I ran into issue finding the VCT angle intake and VCT angle exhaust from there list. Seems these 2 PID's aren't written well and don't relate to what's in the Ngauge. Anyone know what they are actually looking for here.

Did you ever find out about the VCT angle PIDs? I did find the Intake but not the Exhaust on my ngauge.

No was told not to worry about it.

 

[Andy13186]

I think I got mine added, i cant remember what it was called. I think it was some different name but they requested I add it after a while. It was basically the closest thing that I could find in there. You cant just add all the PIDS though which kind of sucks too there is a maximum number. Just make sure you have the max number added and add whatever thing is most similar in name, I think it did have angle in the name.
