Tuning hardware for non-Ford vehicles? (sorry!)

Hey All, I still have my 88 supercharged LX coupe that has a quarterhorse and Binary editor, etc. etc., still runs awesome (although sits in a garage a lot since I bought it back) I recently purchased a (gasp) 2011 Camaro LS (yes a V6) that I was hoping to tinker with just like my Mustang, but I onl...

Re: Classifieds?

So I can’t seem to get any invoice details off moates site- it was purchased March 26, 2019. Emails at the time don’t really have much info other than the purchase date and a link to the detailed invoice which doesn’t work. I’ll actually just keep it to be honest. Never know, I may get another car t...

Hi folks I have looked in the classifieds and that forum looks a little jacked up it’s been a long time since I’ve been in the forums but I have a binary editor dongle that I no longer have a use for and I was wondering if I could post it up for sale somehow- I’m not even sure of anyone buys these a...

Re: Stock bins

I’ve looked at TP a couple years ago after I downloaded it but never actually used it on the car I had at the time. So I’m not entirely unfamiliar with it but I spent ~10 years working with BE so it became almost second nature. If tuner pro makes it easier to tune whatever car I get next, then of co...

My ecm is ryak1/zya2 in my mach 1. I would contact Ben at coretuning to see if he can send you an unlocked tune to study on. Alot of people used sct/bama tunes on the 99-04 cars.

Hi Folks, I am a long time member who hasn't been on in awhile because I had to sell my 88 coupe back in 2020 after a messy divorce. I am looking at purchasing a 1999 to 04 GT or Cobra next summer and I wanted to study up on the differences in the computer compared to what I was running in my 88 (A9...

Re: Text size in BE digital gauges when datalogging?

Yeah it kind of sucks because a couple of my read outs are too big for me to see them in the boxes. No biggie because I can obviously read the datalog but it would be nice to see the real time numbers as well. I'm not sure why these two ended up like that either.

Re: Moates Quarterhorse

Yeah I didn’t realize you weren’t using BE for this issue. Seems odd anyway that you would need the key on because it’s srill the QH right? I notice you wrote that “BE forces you to use the key anyway...”, well it shouldn’t. At least it never has for me. When I first started in all this (2006 maybe?...

Re: Moates Quarterhorse

*IME, corrupting a tune is much easier than people think. The key MUST BE ON before connecting to the Quarterhorse. Playing with the MAF while the engine is running can also do it. Are you sure this is accurate? From the Binary Editor/QH guidebook I use: "The QH’s memory is battery backed therefore...

Text size in BE digital gauges when datalogging?

Hi folks, I can't seem to resize the text size in a couple of my digital gauges when datalogging- I recently added a couple (dashpot and battery volts) and for some reason the text numbers in those boxes are huge, and don't really fit onto the gauge "box". I searched this but only saw some info from...

Fuel pressure “issue”?

Hi all, I was doing some driveway data logging this afternoon and noticed my fuel pressure was bobbing up and down at idle (is normally at 38 psi or so at idle) and nothing in the data log for fuel was changing at all. Then the gauge dropped to zero, but the car didn’t even sputter or change at all....

Re: Mixing tunes between BE versions?

Update- it seems like this is an issue with reading tunes in my BE 2012/single set up. No other issues really. I’m not sure if Clint will have the time to look into it, but it’s not a huge problem for me as I really don’t need to read my tune anyway. I wrote one from scratch in BE 2012 and sent it t...

Re: Mixing tunes between BE versions?

Perhaps I will reach out to Clint tomsee if he can set up a remote connection to my laptop (I think he’s done that in the last when I had other issues). Part of me wants to write the tune to the car an...

Yes that was going to be my plan as well- to see if it keeps happening (so far it has three consecutive times after “reads”). Does Clint still lurk in here at all? I hate to bother him about stuff like this but it may come to that. I don’t see any other issues just the 8-10 scalars that have “error”...

Chris I noticed this morning that when I wrote the tune to the car it seemed to work fine- until I “read” the tune back and that’s when the errors/incorrect values appeared in about ten different scalars. I also noticed two “fuel base OL” tables, one an exact duplicate of the other. Not sure if some...

Couple screenshots attached here. Interestingly, the errors in the scalars are not there now when I just opened BE. The values seem to be correct now. I haven't tried to write the tune or hook up the QH but all I did was open BE to check the version. Odd... Version 5.173, GUF1 based tune (from stock...

Re: Mixing tunes between BE versions?

Thanks for the reply- I only got BE 2012 recently because the laptop I had 2010 installed on (not a dongle) has been acting up and is ten years old now. I wanted to have the dongle (which only comes with BE 2012) so when this old laptop finally gives up the ghost I can still tune.

I guess what I am asking is are the versions interchangeab...
