[quote=Jules][quote=FAibS]powerruns is done on the ONE gear which is nearest to the ratio of 1:1 so for eg. if u have a 6 speed da power run will be done on 5th gear
[quote=Jules]wah sounds very good…
sorry, newbie on cars here but when u do power run – was it for all gears like you are driving on road or how? care to share?
more power less fuel – wah Ashraff team sure fix for MME2008 one less fuel stops and can zoom past the porsche….

[/quote]Thanks…..but then we dun drive our cars in ONE gear rite? so how? does such tuning reflect real driving condition? ( disclaimer : I drive my kart in one gear, DD2 2 gears and shifter 6…)
wah mr lamsey – u my sifu man…tabik! LOL[/quote]
As we all understand each gear ratio varies to engine load. To get the balance among all ratios, tuners always choose the closer 1:1 from GB to engine. That is 3rd gear for most japanese.
There are after-market ECU capable of multiplie profiles that it able tune every single gear ratio, this very benefit epecially to auto tranny or Semi automatic tranny vehicles.

neat, balance and practicalThe fundamental facts:
1. Richer in lambda ratio (rich)less power produced. Good thing is, the excess fuel helps cooling combustion chamber. On the other hand, leaner setting better fuel burn efficiency but expense life span of engine due to excessive overheating.
2. torque and horse power are relatively 2 different kind of power. That is the different between a lorry able to pull 1 ton trunk but unable to achieve 160km/h. A formula 1 car able to clock 320km/h not able to pull a trunk.
Car manufacturer originally tuned the engine targeted to last longer. The safer choice that original tuning just to rich out a little. Many factors are to consider especially costs. Example, lean tuning depending on rigidity of engine block, pistons, con rods and bearings are the basic facts, this also means incurred the costs of building the engine.
My point is, knowing what power region that is desired and start tuning from. It will be more practical to have better torque than horse power for day-today use. Lean at mid and slightly rich at high end HP for protection.
[quote=TheFazz]ok folks – i recognise that august may be a heavy racing month for many. and we need to support our fellow mme racers – after all my-kart is about moving drivers upwards. also there are still 4 rounds to be done including the replacement round 03 and the grand finale.
so i would suggest an alternative schedule for the next events:
round 09 = 11 October 2008
round 10 = 1 november 2008
replacement round 03 = 22 november 2008
grand finale = 20 december 2008what do you think? i need to also check and confirm with CK quick.[/quote]
