That is so frickin badass Aaron!
Good job on getting it all wrapped up.
Looks so easy to tune and mess around with. I may have to get this once my car is finished at the paintshop.

Also, what interface to the laptop does it require?
Is it universal or PC specific? Would be really cool to setup a mc mini or miniPC in the glove box with a small screen to fit.

Thanks! It uses a serial connection, but I just plugged it into a $15 Airlink serial to usb converter and it works excellent. You just have to see which com port the usb adaptor is using and set it for the same number in the standalone software. You could use it with a car pc or a laptop, I'm going to have it plugged into mine at some point.

Awesome. Are you going to remove the stock one and then make an adapter plate for it? If so, then you could sell the adapter plate, bosch solenoid, stinger4 and wiring harness adapter as a combo!

And I would be the first to get in line.

I do have to draw the line somewhere :biglaugh:
I think on the 1jz the easiest way to do it would be to leave the stock one there (because it's normally open anyway), and then put it inline on the other side of the engine where the outlet is on the intake.

I came across something today that I thought I should bring up.

The Stinger will work with a Innovate LC-1 wideband. It also has a voltage setting for the wideband input at 8:1 and 22:1 afr. So you could actually set it up for other wideband controllers, but you would need to check it against another wideband on the car to make sure the readings are correct.

Van Diesel
01-27-2007, 06:06 PM
lc-1 and lm-1 use the same sensor correct?

bigaaron
01-27-2007, 06:21 PM
I want to say yes, but I would have to look it up or ask Innovate to be sure.

Van Diesel
01-27-2007, 07:32 PM
okay did some research. Both use the 5-wire LSU4.2 bosch PN 0 258 007 057. Looks like stinger can accept both LM-1 and LC-1 since the sensor type is the same.

Now THAT kicks ass.

MA717MGTE
01-28-2007, 02:30 AM
stupid question here

if the stinger is going to be the ecu and tunable

why would u want to use a wideband? for more fine tuning i take it??

bigaaron
01-28-2007, 02:42 AM
It has a the capability to do auto tuning, or to run closed loop with a target afr at a specific vacuum or boost level. You don't have to have it, but it can aid in the initial tuning enough to limp the car over to the dyno without being towed.

bigaaron
01-28-2007, 08:01 PM
Here's the full manual for the Stinger, it's pretty complete, but if you have questions feel free to ask.

www.driftmotion.com/Stinger_Manual.pdf

MA717MGTE
01-28-2007, 11:53 PM
ok.. so having the stinger just allows more "maps" to run the 1J than of cource the 1J ecu, and there for a LM1 wideband just offers more supiror tuning?

bigaaron
01-29-2007, 02:33 AM
Basically, yes. It also allows complete control of the timing for any different engine and turbo setup, it has a hard and soft rev limit that can be set to anything you want (up to 32,000 rpm :)), it can work with any size high or low impedance injectors, etc... But all those features are something you need to adjust, or have adjusted for you. That will require several hours of dyno time, and lots of reading and studying of engine management systems in general. You could use the wideband to get it close, which will most likely save you more money in towing and dyno time then it will cost to buy the wideband.

Aaron i don't know much about the stand alones and understand even less

Whats the advantage to the stinger? as compared to other systems

bigaaron
01-29-2007, 03:35 PM
Without a basic understanding of how they work and what they do, the benifits might be kind of hard to see. I say this because I've covered everything several times in several threads. At some point I'll make a sticky with all the info I have been putting together. I'll also look for a good site with standalone basics for people to read.

bobiseverywhere
01-29-2007, 04:37 PM

kinda OT

btw, where can one get bigger injectors w/o having to wire resister packs for the 1J?

bigaaron
01-30-2007, 02:16 PM
Sorry about my last post, I double posted from my Blackberry by accident.

This was from a previous thread:

There are many advantages in going to a standalone ecu. The piggyback units basically fool the stock ecu into doing what you want it to, but there are many things you really have no control over. The standalone has any rev limit you want, and this one has a 2 step rev limiter also. You can make the timing curves how ever you want. You can tune by tps (for na usually) or by map sensor. There are 840 possible tuning points on a 3d map, instead of 3 dials or low, mid and high throttle, and it will interpolate between points so you do not have to adjust every single one. Standalones do require tuning, done by someone with experience, but this one is no harder to tune then any of the other ones on the market that cost a lot more money. All the piggyback units will also require dyno tuning to get the most possible power, but getting a purfect tune with a piggyback can sometimes be very difficult.

OneJoeZee
01-30-2007, 02:20 PM
so the stinger does have a 2step?

cool. :)

bobiseverywhere
01-30-2007, 03:20 PM
thanks for that info Aaron. I was thinking of going piggy back but with the info you gave there it makes much more sense to go stand alone and have proper control over things. :)

AARON: is there any help in sight for us na-t guys? even as far as a base map. (of course we are using the na harness)
would there be a way to add the gte cps into the mix to use as the timing source? (even if i had to hard wire the cps in)
ive been following the maft-pro na setup thread and am wondering if i should just go stinger if it could work because i could also get rid of my air flow meter.
i would like to get rid of the isc also and you are the first ive seen.

your getting some money from me this year anyway, i just gotta decide what i want to buy first.

sorry: i was reading the 1jz thread but, im refering to the 7m. got a little ahead of myself.

bigaaron
01-31-2007, 04:55 PM
You could absolutely make the na-t distributorless and use the 7m-gte ignitor and coil pack, or you could keep the distributor and run a MSD coil or something similar. Almost any aftermarket single coil ignitor will work with the Stinger. I don't think I would make a harness for it, but I could possibly help with a schematic. People seem to be afraid of wiring up a standalone, but it's really not all that hard to do.

Here's a in car video with the Stinger:
www.driftmotion.com/7mgte_stinger_base_tune.wmv

In the video my tach is a little off, I need to wire the Stinger tach output to the stock tach. Since the ignitor inputs are pulsed differently, the ignitors tach output is different. The redline was set to 7.5k with the soft rev limiter, with a 7.8k hard rev limit.

OneJoeZee
01-31-2007, 05:08 PM
when are you gonna be at the dyno, aaron? I might wanna stop by after work if you're still there.

what is the difference between soft and hard rev limiter?

bigaaron
01-31-2007, 05:21 PM
I was there this morning. The stock 7m-gte has a soft rev limit, the hard rev limit is when the ecu completely cuts fuel until the rpm drops below the set point. We really didn't have enough time to touch the timing at all, and the dynapack numbers are lower then a dynojet, but it made 388whp at 16psi. On the street it feels much smother and more powerfull under boost, I have the higher rev limit I wanted, and there is so much more power to be had from it with some more tuning. Also, the engine is burning some oil which is why I am building the new 5m-7m engine.

i wanta get it done, but we have soooooooooo many projects going on that are taking priority. Also, the first ones we sold have proven to be very time consuming in terms of tech support, and I really couldn't handle 20 people calling me with questions about their standalone setup and software.

I am picking up a 1jz ct26 manifold tomorrow to mock up, that's one thing that is getting done asap.

Evilempire1.3JZ-GTE
02-28-2007, 03:25 AM
It is a verry nice ECU it was my first pick for a while but 2 things discouraged me.
1.)"Stepper motor control (Available in next software release) (http://www.enginemanagement.com.au/product_info.php?cPath=23&products_id=108&view=specifications)" :icon_sad: bye bye ISVC no 4 stepper control.

2.)"8 Ignition outputs (Current software release allows for 4) (http://www.enginemanagement.com.au/product_info.php?cPath=23&products_id=108&view=specifications)" To clear this up our ignitor requires 6 individual spark inputs our coil packs. The injectors factory are batch. I am changing mine to sequential by spliting the injector pairs and running individual wires upgrading my injector system.

3.) No display interface



I could live with problem #3.) and get a stack-inc 8130 whiteface display later which is the best display.http://www.stackinc.com/img/8130wh.gif

As far as 1 & 2 have you been able to get the 4 step isvc to work & have you been able to get more then 4 ignition ouputs on this yet ? if so i may have to just get this ecu instead of the wolf! do you have newer software then what the web page says by the limitations of 1.) & 2.)?

By far the stinger is still worth it by value!

bigaaron
02-28-2007, 09:20 AM
I already have a idle speed control working on my 7m car, it uses a Bosch pwm isc instead of the stock idle speed control, I bought the Bosch isc for $15 on ebay. Sequential ignition is not needed, we already have it running a 7m ignitor and a 1jz ignitor batch fire.

bigaaron

ISC is not really needed. Since I have been unable to get the harnesses ready for sale we will be offering the Stinger at a discount. We will have them on the website for $850. At this price I will not be able to offer telephone tech support. It will be the ecu and the unterminated harness. I have the Bosch wideband sensor available for it for $210. I can give you the basemaps and sensor calibration files I have made so far.

The Stinger can work with any engine. If you put the 1jz harness on the 2jz the standalone would not know the difference. You may have to change a few engine connectors or sensors when you change over the harness but otherwise it should be fine.

If you really want one for a 1jz I will make one for you now. The harness will be $200, and the Stinger is $850, the Bosch wideband sensor for it is $210. You can purchase it through the website at www.driftmotion.com, and put in the special instructions that you want the harness and if you want the wideband. I'll bill the addititonal items manually. Or my paypal is aaron@driftmotion.com, but you need to add 3% to the total, and shipping will be about $15 insured in the US.

If plugs in, but you need a vacuum line from the manifold to the Stinger, and you need to wire in a Bosch relay (included) in place of the stock one. It's as pnp as you will get. Don't forget that this will only get it to start, you still need to block off the ISC and spend about 3 hours on the dyno tuning it.

There are base maps out there although?

I dont really care about the ISC since its mosly a track car. Wiring is not a problem. What kind of difficulity is it to tune compared to aem, or hal-tech?

bigaaron
04-19-2007, 05:13 PM
I've had several tuners check it out and I asked them for their hosest opinion, they said the software was as easy to use as anything they had seen.

The base map I have is only to get it to run, I don't want to tell anyone that they should go drive it under boost and full throttle. It's only meant to get you to the dyno without a tow truck. I don't want to recommend something that can damage someone's engine.

04-19-2007, 05:36 PM
Aaron: If the software allows Boost Cut and RPM limiting it might be an idea to set these in the base map ;)

Include a disclaimer that activating these these may result in engine damage if not performed by a tuner on a dyno yada yada ...

i went to eletric fan and just took out the clutch fan, re-routed a coolant line and unplugged the thing...never went with the 2jz water pump (althought it would be best)

but i'm just telling you it can work by doing that and having an efan.

Yes, you can have an isc, but it can't control the stock one.

The tuning software can be downloaded from www.enginemanagement.com.au

I think a simple isc could be just a on/off valve that opens for cold idle, and then opens when the ac comes on.

Yep at this point it cant do four stepper motor, But it haves signle PWM output (Pulse Width Modulated) like a boost controler but only opens on certain things like when you hit the Brakes, Steering Hard, A/C, idle rough.

Since i removed the A/C (Leaving the Steering intact as mechanical) The Brake signal will goto the A/C input on my ecu. The stock ECU does read the brakes for idle control on JZA70 the input is connector T pin 14 green white wire on the ECU goes to connector IG1 pin 4. They are both Hi signals when either is applyed going into ECU and interchangable to idle up mode.

rakkasan
05-26-2007, 09:07 AM
Hey Aaron, you asked if I was running AC & I told you no. I meant to say that my AC isn't currently working, but will.

I was looking through the Stinger manual & found this....


Idle Up Percentage
This mode is used in conjunction with one of the Auxiliary Outputs set to Idle control mode.
The In Gear Idle up % field will become active.
The Input can be connected to auto transmission or air / con
compressor clutch so that if a gear is selected or the air air / con
cuts in, the extra idle up % value will open the idle valve to help stop
engine stalling with the additional load shock.

So this thing will be AC compatable, correct?

bigaaron
05-26-2007, 11:36 AM
It does have an idle up input, but that only works with an idle control solenoid hooked up. I have a Bosch unit on my car and it is working, but it's kinda expensive new ($180) and kinda complicated (needs a 50w resistor). I will have a simple and cost effective idle control solenoid for the Stinger soon. I just haven't had time to try out a few ideas for different solenoids. It will be using a Ford IAC pwm type unit. The other option is just a vacuum solenoid that is switched on or off for fast idle, I just need to find a vacuum solenoid that has slightly larger ports then a Toyota VSV.

Looks like a pretty affordable standalone setup.. so what all is required for the stinger setup to be fully functional? ecu, adapter harness, idle valve?

So how much is a fully functional stinger setup (idle and all)?

Is boost control possible with stinger?

On the nitrous control can it be adapted for methanol control (I see you can add fuel but can't take away?) also iis the Ignition modifier adding ignition or taking away. I assume it would remove timing, as they say to pull timing when installing a nitrous setup (not familair with nitrous that much)

Can you use a different map sensor? I havn't read too much on your website about it, but it seems I can only rescale the fuel map to 200 kpa.. i assume this is due to the internal 3 bar map sensor thats incuded in it (right?) I cant find anything in the software to rescale the map sensor values for it.. to use a 5 bar or something (would like to run 32-35 psi eventually)

I'm sort of confused on the fueling setup (fuel map) is the stock map Boost compinsated? looking at the Fuel Map Override.

With the JZ setup, would an ignition amp be required as it will run in wastefire?

edit: also how is the sensor calibration? like if you wanted to use a gm iat or whatever in the charge piping to get a more accurate reading, rather then the heatsoaked intake manifold? is that resistance in ohms or something?

GM ait would be calibrated by creating a voltage/temp table. Aaron posted a video on how to do the water temp sensor.

The same company that makes the stinger4 also makes the 8860. More features, but obviously more costly.

The Stinger is $1050 with a pnp 1jz harness, $210 for the Bosch wideband (or you can use an Innovate LC-1 or LM-1).

Idle control I picked up on Ebay for $10 like this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Bosch-3-wire-Idle-Control-Valve_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33553QQihZ006QQitemZ160121033216QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW
The engine can work just fine without any idle control, even with AC. It will idle at about 600rpm cold, and 1000rpm hot. With the AC on the idle only drops about 150rpm.

Boost control can be done with the stinger, it has a boost referenced pwm output that can drive a solenoid,a solenoid just like what would come with most boost controllers on the market. You could buy the one that they sell for the maft-pro.

The fuel map is pressure and rpm referenced, the override is to add more fuel then what the map is set for at specific pressure levels. I think that is used to make the map more smooth visually, so that you don't need to make huge changes as the boost rises. The initial setting works very well for that, my maps look very smooth once the tuning is completed.

The TPS is used for the throttle enrichment on turbo engines. You can also select the load source to be TPS (instead of manifold pressure) for non turbo cars.

From testing on multiple cars now I have found that the 1jz ignitor works just fine running waste spark, even at an rpm above the stock redline. I have also done two cars now with a 7m ignitor running on the 1jz, so for people who can't get a 1jz ignitor with their engine set, you wouldn't need it. You also wouldn't need a map sensor, because it's built in the Stinger.

The Stinger has a 30psi map sensor built in. It is not upgradeable or scaleable as far as I know. If you are going to be running over 30psi and want a bunch of additional features, take a look at the 8860, I can get you into that one for $1300, and I can make a pnp harness for it too if you want to get one.

For 30+ psi, don't even bother with a stock ignitor. Run a MSD DIS-4, or once AEM works out some bugs they have an inexpensive ignition box called the Twin-Fire that I will be offering at a great price. They had problems with a small gap at super high hp levels so and they are re-designing it.

06-16-2007, 05:36 PM
The Stinger can control boost if you use a boost solenoid with it, but you would probably be better off keeping your boost controller if you already have one. It works independantly of your aftermarket boost controller, any brand will work.

Yeah man, 50% is way too much for an AFC alone. Your timing is probably way out of wack in all of those areas.

I got my plug and play Stinger Standalone today. I'm hoping to get it tuned thursday night, but I'm not sure if I can get in the dyno yet. They're trying to get a car finished up. If there is any way possible for me to get on the dyno then I will be there. Hopefully I can get my timing issues figured out and up my boost to about 25psi with some race gas. If I don't make 500rwhp somehow, Duane is going to kill me and bury me out in a snow filled ditch in Canada somewhere.............:aigo:

500! WOW that's a lot!

Good luck with that!
Mine's going on the dyno tomorrow - hoping for over 300rwhp. Idealy upwards of 350rwhp but we'll see...

He's already close. He's already got around 450 with an AFC pwning his timing trying to handle pretty large injectors.

A good tune, some race gas, enough boost, and 500 shouldn't be a big issue.

Oh right - well 450 with a AFC will be an easy 500 with the stinger :)

Well the fact you told Duane you hate all Canadian's cant help with the killing very much????:biglaugh:

Jay called me today right when he got it and he seems ready to see what the Stinger is going to do for him. Hopefully this is the solution for Jay??? Just another great product and service from our friends at driftmotion.:icon_bigg

If anyone's wondering - here's a fuel/ignition map for a 1G with 7M injectors.
Its a bit rich but it'll get you to the dyno. Also on this page is the water temp calibration file. I made it the other day

Please elaborate on the water temp calibrations. I'm hoping to tune Thursday night and I want to know as much as possible about this standalone. Thanks.


I don't think you should have a problem cracking 500 now, Jay.

Thanks Joe.

The numbers are irrelivant, I have no idea what they mean.

Basically the Stinger adjusts the fuel somewhat depending on the water, and therefore engine, temperature.

Here's how I did it

I put 3/4 antifreeze and water in the freezer to get it to as cold as I could (which was about -10C)

I bought a $30 multimeter that does temp
I brought a pot of oil to 160degree's C on the stove (measured with the multimeter's temp sensor.
Took the pot downstairs, took out my water temp sender, while leaving it plugged in, put it in the pot of oil, with my multimeter's temp probe.

As the temp dropped from 150, 140, 130 etc, all the way down to about 60C I would press "Accept reading" on the stinger's calibration page, making sure I was on the water temp sensor tab, and the appropriate temp box was highlighted. Be careful here as if you press accept reading, the highlight moves to the right!!
I would also stir the oil a bit just to make sure the readings were accurate.
Once at about 60 degree's, the tempof the oil was starting to drop very slowly so I used water from here. Using hot tap water and mixing normal tap water I did 50, 40, 30 then 20C. Then I used my -10C antifreeze mix and worked upwards, -10C, then add a bit of tap water to get it to 0, then a bit more to get it to 10. Making sure you're stirring all the time so the water temp is consistant!

Thats about it.
It takes a bit of time, mainly hanging around waiting for the oil to cool - but it's worth it.

As I said, each temp sensor may be different as over time they can start to put out different numbers, so my calibration file is just a guide.

Nice work!!! I did my calibration files like that too. The GM air temp sensor is called "Holden" in the calibration files. Most of the ones I tried were pretty close, but the way you did it would be the most accurate. The temperature sensor input can also be used to switch aux outputs on or off, so it is important for it to be fairly accurate.

Yeah you're right about it being important. Doesn't the ECU adjust a little depending on the engine temp? Or is that only air temp that it adjusts a little for? I haven't calibrated my air temp sensor yet. Can I do that in the same way with water? Or will that be in-accurate as water's denser than air?

Here are my results from the dyno thursday night. I will tell you it took a while to tune, but not because of the Stinger. I strapped my car on the dyno at 12:25 p.m. and I didn't leave until 2:15 a.m. I was having problems with my spark plugs and my coil packs. I started out with my NGK 6097's gapped to .028 and my car would break up at 4300rpm. We then took them out and gapped them to .030 to see if it caused any difference. It didn't, so we took the coil packs off and fixed a few naked places in the wired and did some soldering on a couple others. We also gapped the sparkplugs to .020 and the car ran like a champ. All of these pulls were at 21psi. I tried to raise the boost up but the car was breaking up again with more boost. I need to find some good coilpacks or maybe some aftermarket coilpacks. Here are the dyno sheets.
This first one shows the best pull I did right before the Chicago meet versus yesterdays pull. Both of these are at 21psi, but the better one is with the Stinger and the other is stock ecu with SAFCII. At 4900 rpm I picked up 85.6rwhp and 90.9 rwtq.......................:evil2:

This one is the best pull that I have made with my car so far.
Sorry for the huge pictures.

Nice Jay! I had very similar results last Wednesday. I hit 472whp @ 20.3psi. While looking at the duty cycle after the pull though, it was up around 95%. Oops! We pushed the boost back down to 17psi & hit 448whp with 80% duty cycle. Nothing printed, but I do have it video'd, so I'll download it tonight & post it....

I'm looking into DIS-4, second walbro & larger injectors, probably 680's & top feed rail. I want to hit 501whp. It will require race gas, that's for certain....

Damn, I'm glad this came up. Although my tune is good when the car is warm, it still runs too rich when I first start driving. I never thought to calibrate the temp sensor.....

nice jay! big improvment in powerband! why does it say 90-105? octane? might still be concervative.. what were the timing #s at 21 psi?

I kept having trouble with the coils breaking down so I had lowered the duty cyle on my AVCR, but once I changed the gap in my plugs, I raised it back up to where it was. That's what I run my car on at a daily basis which is about 20-21psi.

Mark, it's really cool the way we're making about the same power. I'm about a pound higher in boost than you and I'm making about six more horsepower. What was your tourque. I'm sure it's higher than my 396.

EDIT:I'm pretty sure my timing was at 16degrees @ 21psi.

I can make the late model harness, but the early model connectors can only be pulled from an old stock ecu. I could do that if you have an ecu you don't want. It could even be from an 7mge ecu.

If you are considering the AEM, also take a look at the 8860, it is more comparable to the AEM in terms of inputs and outputs, but it does cost a bit more then the Stinger.

Thanks Aaron! There's a few other DM pieces on the car besides *only* the Stinger :sarcasm: .

I'm interested in the valve as I'm sure it will solve the low idle when cold. Also, the top feed kit would be great too, I've already retuened the 680's & put the purple tops back in :icon_frow

I have a different valve I will be sending Mark to test out, it has a bracket and NPT pipe fittings so installation will be easier. It has a metal body so it will be durable, and it was designed to be able to be installed in a hot engine bay. It increased the idle on our 1jz test by about 300 rpm when open. It can be switched on with coolant temp by the Stinger. It would just be y'd into a vacuum fitting on the intake manifold.

Aaron, I would be VERY interested in this. My car idles around the 300-400rpm mark when cold - and I have to get jabbing the throttle if I want to increase the revs (pressing on the gas just bogs and stalls it) - then if I rev it and let it drop, it'll just die haha

Any thoughts on price?
