Who has there MSPNP up and running yet? Ive got some questions on VVT angle.

[dunebuggyjay]

Okay, how many of your guys on the OBD1 group buy have your cars running yet?

My car is running better than ever! Still driving around on the wastegate spring, and fine tuning my mapping. (its not a daily driver)

My question is the VVT angle. What are you guys seeing for a number on that gauge in tuner studio?

I think I see 420 or 240 or something...that doesnt seem right does it?

Is my vanos messed up or something?

I did re-do vanos seals last winter, and checked the engagement and advance with air pressure. All looked good.

Can anyone else tell me what i should be seeing on VVT angle?

Thanks
Jay

I can dig through some logs and see what real numbers are but an easy way to test it is make it go on at idle. It should change tone and almost stall.

Sounds like it's just delivering the RAW (not filtered/calibrated) values to me... which really isn't important since it's a fixed (on/off) advance style of VVT.

The angles it measures are pretty arbitrary, but they're based on the angle between the cam sensor and TDC.

It should be set to a simple on/off style. As dburt said confirm operation by Turing it on while idiling. It should run like dog shit/barely run. I'll find a way to post screen shots of my settings but the neither the bf.c app or Tapatalk are working on my phone right now lol

Yes, I read about 420 deg VVT angle as well, when the vanos is not activated. When it is activated, that angle should increase about 15-25 deg.
