I'm wondering what do you mean with optimizing for efficiency?
Optimized for f.e. is going Euro 2 or lower? I compared the timing maps of 1.9 TDI BXE 105 cv Euro IV with the 1.9 TDI AHF 110 Euro II and mainly the differences were the first one had different maps depending on coolant/(fuel above 60ºC) temperature and also there were differences in low load zone (wich almost you could manage to compensate advancing the static camshaft angle).
But the older one timings (when times calculated from angles) almost ever injected the fuel 0.6 ms before TDC (i'm talking also when timing fitted in the sweet spot of the injection pump, you can check with TDI Timing and Vag Com).

Does Optimized for f.e. mean to enrich the injection and getting lots of shoot and black smoke of death?

I agree with you about the gearing but I think you need very tall gearing because your car is the best VW Lupo 1.2 TDI GTI ever. I'm happy you will drag race with those cars. Because your car will accelerate/ brake, havee a high top speed and even corner better than supposed sport cars wasting lots of gas moving air around and propelling fatty and non easy rolling alloys.
But I did several calculation before the previous post with this parameters and results:
standard gear, 155/80 r15 desired tires, rr = 6.4 kg/Tm, cd = 0.21, S=2; ro=1.2 kg/m3, mass =730 kg, cc = 1161; and power 61 cv (I use to relate the BSFC map and and load)
Top gear = 55.47 km/(h 1000 rpm)
f.c (100kph) = 2.18 L/100km
efficiency = 35.4%
engin rpm = 1804 ( slip ratio not taken into account)
needed torque = 43.8 Nm

6-speed tallest 02J gearbox FSM adapted, 155/80 r15 desired tires, rr = 6.4 kg/Tm, cd = 0.21, S=2; ro=1.2 kg/m3, mass =730 kg, cc = 1161; and power 61 cv (I use to relate the BSFC map and and load)
Top gear = 90.5 km/(h 1000 rpm)
f.c (100kph) = 1.89 L/100km
efficiency = 37.5%
engin rpm = 1105 ( slip ratio not taken into account)
needed torque = 65.7 Nm

P&G will save fuel if you are able to fill the turbo and reach fast the max pressure boost.
I think it will be tricky and very very difficult go under 1.9L/100km with your big block engine. But I'm very sure (because I have done other perfomence and f.e. calculations, not explined in this post) that your car will go from 0 to 100 kmh in almost half the time (without the gear shifts times) than standard and your fuel consumption at standard top speed (178 km/h) will be about 4.5 L/100kms (52 mpg at 110 mph, wow). Also the top speed will raise up to 250 km/h. If you go to the autobahn or in the speedway maybe you will notice lift. Be careful, maybe your car should have wings.

I suppose (after doing calculations) that your engine's sweet spot is above 160 Nm (you went to 250 Nm), I'm sure with your mods you can get this torque at low rpms, but when full trhottle.
According to my assumptions I used to asses the calculations (maybe quite near to the reals, but i dont' know):
Your engine has 76.5 x 86.7 bore stroke, 3 cil, 1195 cc, C.ratio = 19.5, Boost pressure = 2 bar.
- so when it produces 160 Nm (max standard torque) wich means BMEP of 16.8 bar, but the ignition starting at 128 bar when pressure at top dead center PTDC (maybe getting a max pressure at full throttle between 144 to 160 bar).
- so 250 Nm mean 26.3 bar BMEP, assuming your boost pressure is 2.4 bar the ignition will found a PTDC around 154 bar (and max peak somewhere in a range 179 to 206 bar)

4.6 BMEP and 6.89 BMEP (respectively 43.8Nm and 65.7) with an air fuel ratio almost the same (it's an assumption) will mean about 1/4 of the air (so the pressure also being 1/4 of max PTDC when full throtle and full boost).

My numbers might be wrong because I ¿selflearned? to do them reading the Bosch diesel handbook and many other books, althought I'm physicist i don't have a lot of training on engine thermodynaics. Somewhere I read that 160 bar is a very good pressure in the cylinder to obtain a low BSFC.
i found some graphs in the Handbook of diesel but I remember to have seen one that not was a BSFC map -bsfc vs. BMEP vs. rpm- but a -bsfc vs. pressure of combustion vs. rpm-.

But the needed torque to maintain 100 kmh speed (43.8 to 65.7 Nm seem like being far from the sweet spot pressures in the cilynder) and volumetric efficiency not being improved with the turbo at steady throtle condition).

I'm sorry about the long post but I'm practicising because next july 26th I will take and english exam,
I'm not sure of having explained it in the best way. I'm sorry.

Those mirrors are seriously awesome! If I can't get video mirrors passed on CarBEN, I will use this design instead.

With push and glide I have made this kind of graph. Sorry about its quality.

https://fbcdn-sphotos-h-a.akamaihd.n...56964842_n.jpg

So I should reach two liter fuel consumption if push average is 3,4s and glide 16.6s
this means respectively also that two liter is reached with 1,7 s push and 8.3s glide. I believe its closer to that 1.7 push times.

Efficiency tuning means changing injection timing and fuel amount injected. I will install those bigger injectors which will deliver the fuel faster so I can use later injection times and still get same amount of fuel to the engine. So basicly I can deliver the fuel more precisely where and how much I want.

Tuning will be made using wideband lambda sensor, backpressure, boostpressure, exhaust temperature meters and lots of test driving on the road and in the dyno to make own BSFC map for current setup.

Optimum efficiency is reached somewhere the back pressure does not get much higher than boost pressure.

Car is tuned for at least two different drive scenarios depending on the gas pedal position.

0-30% no boost pressure so steady throttle driving with load
31-80% boost range jumps 0.9-1.1 bar which is current estimation about optimal boost for current turbo and engine setup. Need testing and tweaking on dyno. This sector is so wide that its easy to get correct gas pedal position when driving for efficiency.
81-100% max boost what current setup can deliver and that will be find out later this week. at the moment 1.55 bar but thats not enough. At the moment we have to lower boost to 1.25 bar at 4700 rpm due to too high (2.5 bar) back pressure.



Tomorrow that should be in the car and testing can continue. I also get the 3 bar map pressure, because stock map scale ends at 1.6 bar.

Some quick push and glide test, and results are promising 2.1 liters at 98.5 km/h avg speed. ECU is not yet optimised for efficiency...

Calculated target was 16,6 glide/3.4 push =4,88

Total push time was roughly 32.2 seconds and glide respectively 168.8 seconds. So glide/push factor was 5,24. So that is actually already over target, but those times are rough timing from video, plus the ecu is not tuned yet for efficiency.

But in short its pretty close.




Conserning acceleration we are close to 6 second limit for 60-120 km/h acceleration.



Tomorrow its cleaning up the car and drilling few round holes to inside panels. I also have to take out 20 liters of diesel because it takes too long to drive it empty just for fun .

Nice job. Just went through the thread (skimmed through most of it anyways) and was very impressed with your efforts. It's quite a project you've taken on, and I look forward to seeing the next videos!

201 km/h with under 100 hp on mile is great achievement.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?featur...&v=SqAxJvdcyPQ

Next week try to drive 500 km with under 10 liters at 100 km/h avg speed

Official result was 199.7 km/h.

Very very nice. Good luck with the next test. Getting both speed and FE would be something.

New personal fuel consumption record is set now to 2.158 l/100km at 92.7km/h actual average speed taken from ultragauge. For US friends that is 109 MPGus at 57.6 MPH. Car is capable to go two liters at 100 km/h on flat road. Distance driven today was 497,17 km and fuel fillup was 10.73 liters. Video will follow but propably tomorrow as todays target is still to install those bigger injectors.

just to give perspective with that result I would have propably won the Xprize contest!. winner edison 2 average fuel consumption was 117 MPGe with only 73,2 km/h averge speed on highway finals.
http://www.progressiveautoxprize.org...son2?carId=144

Could people who have studied more those xprize calculation formulas can give some answer?
