Title: Bluefin Stage 2
Post by: liver on May 04, 2011, 10:33:50 am
what are the peoples thoughts who are running this map?

ive had it for a few weeks now, and im unsure, it sometimes feels like the car can not be bothered.

What psi do your cars boost to? Mine peaks at around 15/17psi

just wanted to see what other peoples thoughts were on the map

Post by: Janner_Sy on May 05, 2011, 07:10:55 pm
my thoughts on it are that its not very good at stage 2 or 2+.  I changed tuner in the end.  shame to have to spend out another #400-500, but it was worth it with the end result

remember to look at the graph as a whole, not just the peak figures.
Title: Re: Bluefin Stage 2
Post by: liver on May 06, 2011, 12:02:12 pm
oh i will be doing not that bothered about peak figure more how it comes across on the graph etc

just at times it can feel sluggish and almost like the car can't be bothered and you've to give it a good kick up the arse, then other times its fine and goes well

don't really know what power figures to expect tbh

Post by: Janner_Sy on May 06, 2011, 01:22:36 pm
the power delivery on mine was diabolical, very erratic what rollers you on?  mine made 287hp on AMDs, then went on JMS and only made 252hp, which would make sense as even though it was stage 2+ it couldnt keep up with the shark performance stage 2 or REVO stage 2 which all had less mods and the lower map, hence why i swapped

well car ran ****e lol

woke up to set off to awesome and exhaust light was on

got to awesome plugged bluefin for fault code, the car then had a paddy, immobilised itself, wouldnt start or turn over or anything

got the standard map uploaded and started, then got the stage 2 map on and took it out for half hour, was boosting as standard and boosting different in every gear, 1st and 2nd was struggling to boost at all, 3 was maxing out at 10psi, 4th 12 psi and 5th and 6th maxing out at about 16psi

had it out for a few miles with it obviosuly still been in learning mode but nothing was changing.

Decided to stick it on the rollers anyway but wasnt expecting good figures or anything near what i should have been getting, this was proved right when it went on

(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fdaz.co%2Fmedia%2Ft56%2FLiver89%2FIMG_0204.jpg&hash=8b7c00e44cab0c8b79ddf1227217fc62c26bf91c)

best run was 233.7 bhp and 333.48 ft/lb torque

was expecting between 250/260 but i knew it wasnt running right

spoke to awesome and they suggested it could be the pvc system as they are a known weak spot on these engines

so got back to r lasses engine cover off quick check to see if i cud see anything, nothing much tbh

few bits of debree in end tunnel so cleaned that out

so now i need to contact bluefine to double check the map, will send them the print out etc and ask why the boost is so unpredicatble

so the continues to give me grief lol

drives fine, smooth etc and no problems, just not producing the power it should be

looks like the Orange O ring has been leaking gases, in the 1st photo, also looks like oil staining on the cylinder head... or its a dark shadow?

New PCV kit i would suggest. O ring gasket is a seperate part im sure.

In-expensive to replace, would suggest if you havent changed it before, to replace it as its off.
Title: Re: Bluefin Stage 2
Post by: liver on May 09, 2011, 11:01:13 am
nah it hasnt been changed before, i will order that from vw today and try and sort out an after market pcv fix for the car too if i can

awesome suggested the euro jet one,

also thats just a shadow but i can see how you thought it was leaking.

hopefully the update should help it run better and boost better cheers

Post by: Saint Steve on May 09, 2011, 11:04:46 am
My stage 2 Bluefin is fine for my Ed30, although does have a flat spot at 4500 rpm, but thats not the maps fault. It really needs a HPFP to help.

Cant complain. For the money imo its good value.

Have you checked your DV lately liver?
Title: Re: Bluefin Stage 2
Post by: liver on May 09, 2011, 11:10:03 am
yeah checked and changed to the latest revison from vw so shouldnt have any problems from that

what sort of psi do you boost to or do you not know?

the way it boosts differently in every gear and only peaks at 15/16 psi only in 5th and 6th suggests something isnt right

yeah i went with bluefin as it was a steal of a price only cost me £175 for stage one then just £50 for stage 2
Title: Re: Bluefin Stage 2
Post by: Saint Steve on May 09, 2011, 11:36:25 am
TBH, im unsure as to what Boost runs on stage 2..

I dont have a boost gauge, nor do i know how to check on vcds, even though i have a Micro Can VCDS :ashamed:
Title: Re: Bluefin Stage 2
Post by: liver on May 09, 2011, 01:04:39 pm
i should think they should be running something near 20psi at stage two and around 23/24 at stage 2+ i think, but like i say not sure if bluefin adjust boost sure ive read that somewhere but can not remember

Title: Re: Bluefin Stage 2
Post by: liver on May 09, 2011, 01:59:00 pm
just been out for work and these are the figures its boosting at currently

1st = -1HG upto 1psi
2nd = 5psi
3rd = 8-10psi
4th = 10-12psi
5th = 15psi
6th = 15-16psi

costing me a fortune in fuel lol

Go and do some logs. Measure Actual versus Requested Boost and Ambient pressure.

There has been load written on here about how to do them even Ross Tech tell you how.

Post by: Janner_Sy on May 09, 2011, 08:16:08 pm
thats similar to what mine was doing with regards to boost.  creates a very erratic power delivery.  Stage 1 was good if a little underpowered, stage 2 was really bad.  stage 2+ improved on stage 2 by quite alot but was still lacking in the delivery and outright power.

Quite a few guys had issues with bluefin on the K03 TFSI when they went to stage 2, a good 4 of us on briskoda ended up changing tuner eventually which slved the issue.

Not sure why it is, the map on the Ed30 K04 GTI seems to be really good, but the K03 is really pants.  I took logs and all sorts of mine and was sendin them to superchips to get the map adjusted.

The deal breaker for me was when i mentioned the guys with other remaps were easily getting 300lbft, yet mine  at stage 2+ was only managing about 270lbft, theyre response was anything getting over 300lbft is at  risk of snapping the camshafts.  They lost me at that point

Ive managed to do some succesfully, but need someone to have a browse over...Anyone??

Timing on a couple of occasions and Fuel rail pressure might be an issue.

i would post on here but the message box on here is too short to list properly.

Easiest way to put them up on here is,
Open it up log in excel, format the page until it fits the screen. Press the printscreen button on keyboard. Open up 'paint' click paste. Then save it as a jpeg, upload it to photobucket etc. Simples :happy2:
Personally I thought stage 2 was better than stage 1, but I thought all 3 Superchips maps felt too flat until the revs got high up, was all or nothing compared to all the other maps I had.
Title: Re: Bluefin Stage 2
Post by: Saint Steve on May 10, 2011, 01:16:59 pm
I think the maps asking for too much fuel pressure which my standard pump cant deliver.
The timings being retarded because of it..

Title: Re: Bluefin Stage 2
Post by: Saint Steve on May 10, 2011, 04:27:36 pm
its -6.8 at its worst.. timing retards because the stock fuel pump cant supply what the maps asking. i will post logs to you via email, if you have an email address to you can see them clearly rather then out of sync on here if you like?

Superchips have since Toned down the map and sent me a new map, although im inclined to replace the cam follower and inspect for excessive wear in the fuel pump.

Why did you have a new oem pump installed Heavyd of out curiosity?

The easy fix would be to change the fuel pump, but as superchips and revo say an uprated fuel pump isnt nessasary on stage 2.
My turbo boost/ requested levels are spot on the money, but fueling is the problem.. any other idea's?
Title: Re: Bluefin Stage 2
Post by: heavyd on May 10, 2011, 08:32:52 pm
I originally had an autotech pump in and stage 3, but was getting some cut, so I sold the autotech. When I put the old pump in the following log on stage 2 showed some fuel cut. Pdt advised me to get a new pump. So got discount at dealers and paid £150 for a new one, which is the logs on the last page. Although I mist say when it went back on the rollers with the new pump it made 5bhp less. I'm no expert but it might be a dodgy pump you have as your logs are similar to mine, might be clogged fuel filter etc who knows. Best off sending pdt your logs and ask his opinion, though he may say the same. Here's my logs on old pump

Title: Re: Bluefin Stage 2
Post by: martziniuk on May 10, 2011, 10:48:46 pm
Steve looking at the logs, my opinion is I see you have a big spike @ 2960 rpm which would use a lot of fuel to create the power from that spike. Fuel pressure slowly catches up later in the rev range as the boost curves drops to follow what it should. As its stage 2 and on the limits of the pump it would take a while for the pressure to build back up again before running out of fuel at higher rpm.
Just my opinion.
Title: Re: Bluefin Stage 2
Post by: vRStu on May 10, 2011, 10:55:52 pm
I wouldn't agree that Stage II doesn't need a higher flowing fuel pump.  It can be seen from your logs Steve that Req'd vs Actual is quite different in some places.

I don't think simply changing the follower is the answer to your issue, tone down the map or invest in a fuel pump  :evilgrin:
Title: Re: Bluefin Stage 2
Post by: Saint Steve on May 11, 2011, 06:16:28 am
My map has been now toned down, but sifting through my service receipts, it appears my fuel filter nxt to the fuel tank has never been inspected :fighting:.Filter and follower are next to try.
new map from Superchips has already by my bum dyno feel smoother on fly up, so fingers crossed.

Will re-log to confirm once replaced .

if you look at the requested boost in the fuel cut areas compared to my stage 2 and they are a lot higher.
I just had a look at my bluefin stage 3 requested boost levels, and they peak at 2330, only for a very short time. and that was with teh last tweaked map that bluefin had sent me :stupid:

I have emailed PDT aswell, he says he's gonna have a look, does look like my old maps boost was requesting much higher then your settled version heavyd.

I might retry logging tonight, as it defiantly feels better so far with just the mapping tweaks.

I think you may mis-understand the function of the cam follower.  Unless it's failed, and you ought to know that for sure, then it is unlikely to help your problem.  I'm not saying don't change it but I'm trying to say don't expect changing it to help you.

I agree stu, reason is, that the fuel is still supplying high fuel pressure on occasion, meaning the pump is mechanically driven, and that one minute its supplying enough, and another minute it isnt. Kind of points either to mapping requesting too much for a standard pump, or i could have a fuel delivery issue, possible fuel blockage , I still dont believe my stock pump is worn out. As not long ago on jkm's rollers, the car has always performed VERY well on a stage 1 map.

Fuel filter has never been changed, so might give me a clue.

Im doing some logs tonight, so will list the results later.

Fuel filter I agree with, and by all means inspect the follower but I'd agree the pump looks like it's under performing.  If you don't want to replace it perhaps see if you can 'borrow' one.

The map is requesting 110 bar which I guess it a WoT, the pump is mechanically driven as you say and is relative to engine speed as it's driven from the cam.  At lower to medium engine speed the pump cannot flow enough fuel to meet demands.

Cheers Stu...

Just back from some logs of the leafy lanes of Corhampton.. :chicken:.


Superchips have ever so slightly lowered the boost request levels.
The car now feels more progressive, rather then having aggressive "spike" feel.
As my backside dyno felt on 1st thoughts, rail pressures are now requesting and receiving within safer tolerences.
Timing is alot better, having done several runs, and only once hit -4.5 very briefly, but now i have lots of Zero's in the timing columes.Much happier, in the knowledge im not doing any potential harm to the engine..

Fuel filter will be inspected as cars done 57k and never changed..

Sorry about the grids being out of position :sad1:


I will post the logs but they may be abit out of sync..

Post by: vRStu on May 11, 2011, 10:37:02 pm
I still think you are mitigating the problem Steve and not fixing it.  If the shaft seal has failed on your fuel pump then it will likely be emptying fuel into the engine oil which won't do your engine any good.

A new pump is probably circa £130 so not the end of the world compared to many parts.

My oil level drops Stu , not raises, and doesnt smell of any Super unleaded  :signLOL:

Brand new pump would no doubt cure to an extent, but only if i feel all other potential posibilities into low fuel pressure have been ruled out.

Fuel filter has never been off, so thats a 1st place for me to double check.

Superchips have responded, and looks like this isnt the 1st case....From Email "quote"

Morning Steve,

Glad to see it is running well again, we have our solution. The new remap has reduced filling tables (boost), we have seen other cars from time to time that struggle with the standard Stage 2 who require this. The logs now show all is as it should be, I would advise you stick with this now.
 
Regards,
 
 Jo. Superchips


Once again , S.C's responce has been superb in all this.  :happy2:
Title: Re: Bluefin Stage 2
Post by: heavyd on May 12, 2011, 03:47:52 pm
I'm not suprised it struggles if its using the same boost levels as a stage 3 file does but without the petrol :laugh:
At least you got it sorted :happy2:
Title: Re: Bluefin Stage 2
Post by: liver on May 13, 2011, 02:00:40 pm
i emailed bluefin today stating my boost figures and explaining the dip in power also showing them my graph

here is there response

Hi Mark

These boost figures are low, we would expect the engine to be running 17-18 psi with the stage 2 file. I would suspect that you have a tear in the diaphragm in your dump valve, I suspect this as you turbo is able to produce more boost with the higher load that are achieved using the higher gears and we also come across the issue quite often on the VW Cup cars that we tune.

The dump valve is incorporated into the Turbo, this is on the back of the engine and is most easily accessed from underneath with the vehicle on a ramp.

I hope this helps

Regards

Dave


ive already changed the dumpvalve so it can't be this, but at least i now know i am not boosting correctly. PCV fix will hopefully fix this

im doing some data logging tonight so will post up the results when ive done those, as i wont know what they are showing lol
Title: Re: Bluefin Stage 2
Post by: liver on May 16, 2011, 09:49:41 am
didnt get chance to do any data logging

recieved my bsh stage 1 fix this morning so will try and get that fit asap and hope this is the problem

if not i will try and data log
Title: Re: Bluefin Stage 2
Post by: liver on May 18, 2011, 12:00:58 am
Here's a pic of the broken PCV.
You can see the check valve inside is broken, the circular piece should be centred, but its broken a loose and never creates a seal.

(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fdaz.co%2Fmedia%2Ft56%2FLiver89%2FIMG_0221.jpg&hash=0e142cf82842b370a5f3cfacd7e4133187077ebe)

hopefully the car should boost better now, i think im gonna try re-installing the software too, just because the last time it was installed the car had just gone crazy and imobolised itself etc, just for piece of mind really, few days standard then back to stage 2

Post by: liver on May 19, 2011, 10:21:27 am
put the car back on the standard map and the car is pretty much boosting the same as it was previously

will try n get logs in standard mode then with the map on to compare
