How to Set Your Engines Base Timing - ME221 ECU Install Part 04 | Supercharging an MX5 Miata Ep 12

Описание: Now the MX5 is up and running on the ME221 PnP ECU I need to check and confirm base timing. This is a relatively simple procedure using the tuning software (MEITE) providing you have access to a timing gun/light. I will run through the entire process in this video, and once completed, will ensure the engine runs at the commanded degree of ignition advance. This is very important to check before attempting to tune the car either by remote tune or on the dyno so modifications made to the Ignition Timing table are accurate. Once the base timing is confirmed the ME221 will be fully calibrated pending tuning. The ECU in this video is a Gen 1 ME221 (black board), but this procedure will also apply to the Gen 1 ME442, AND the Gen 2 ME221 & ME442 (white board). Many parts of this video will also be applicable to other popular standalone plug & play ECUs for the MX5, for example, the Megasquirt MS2 & MS3, and Speeduino boards.
