Setting ignition timing on Link G3

Postby l1ttle_d3vil » Fri Mar 27, 2015 6:42 pm

Hey guys, I had my dizzy out while doing some work on the head and didn't mark it before removing... what is the process for setting ignition timing on a Link G3 ecu? Engine is a 4agze AW11 block with t25g turbo.

Do you have to put it into a diagnostics mode like you do on factory ecus?

And what should the base timing be, factory says 10°btdc - is it any different for a turbo setup?

Cheers

You can select to offset the timing vs the sensor output so you don't need to physically move the Dizzy. Can alter the angle on your laptop and watch the timing mark move with a timing light. Put the dizzy back in and set it to 10deg btdc. See how you go.

as above need to do it in pc link. under triggers menu - calibrate. set reference timing to 10deg, then turn on lock to reference. (pretty much does what stock ecu does when setting timing) set timing to 10 degrees, either by adjusting dizzy or adjusting trigger offset. then turn off lock to reference.

you can double check its right by comparing the timing in igniton map to what timing light reads
