So the Rom for the 325hp 04.5-07 has a minimum of 250uS between the pilot and main event. I created a timing calculator that dynamically generates the main timing event based off Fuel pressure/duration/%btdc, then calculates the suggested Pilot timing duration adds it on top of the main event, Adding the 250uS timing to the mix when it generates it.
When i look at stock vs my outcome the WOT map looks mint, runs mint... BUT im wondering, has anyone given any thought as to not the minimum timing between events without overlap, but the optimal timing between events...
Im looking for something in degrees or in uS from research before i start testing it on my own...
Its simple to add it into the calculator as a factor of time or timing... so if i dont get feedback i can add in both of them and the Tuners can change it themselves... but if there is an optimal duration between events then that would obviously make it easier to program in now, then later....
Once i get feedback ill move the sheet to hp tuners forum as it will help a lot..
Reason behind the inquiry is im almost thinking i have to look at this as three separate entities... (Idles/start moving)(cruise)(WOT)...
Any feedback from others would speed up the calculator..
Update but left the initial question - Pilot timing is not based off TDC which was my initial thought, it is based of the SOI or Start of Injection of the Main Pulse. Logging is also based off SOI of the main event and not the TDC of the motor. My mistake, good feedback "eventually" Will be removing the pilot timing out of the calculator because now it really isnt needed. New feedback would be your thoughts around Pilot timing in general.
