Part 1: DIY base tuning my EL Fairmont Ghia 4.0L with the T.I Performance J3 chip.
bit.ly/tiper-late-night-nate
In this video, I go through the process of using a J3 chip with the TunerPro RT software and make my first attempt at adjusting the idle areas of the tune in hopes of getting the engine to idle un-assisted.
Currently awaiting a wideband sensor kit and vacuum gauge to allow more accurate road tuning which will be covered in Part 2 of this DIY tuning series.
Eventually, the OG Ghia will get it's final tune on the dyno.

Very interesting video I have always thought this to be black magic but you made it seem easy thanks for sharing

@Late-Night-Nate 4 месяца назад

Thanks mate! I actually thought the same when i first got into the J3 chip and tuning them. Didn't really have a choice back then since I had just cammed my EF Fairmont and no one in the country even knew what a J3 chip was so i threw myself in the deep end 😂😂 It's not too difficult really, just a whole bunch of numbers, but in various different tables which can be a bit daunting. Trial and error seems to be the easiest way around it all though, make small changes here and there, and then see how it goes from there👍🏻

Great video Nathan! FYI you can change the row order back to the 'old' style under Tools, Preferences, Table Editor Options, Reverse Rows. This puts high load at the top which makes more sense to me. I also set up keyboard shortcuts for Ctrl+U to upload and Ctrl+Y to verify. Keen to see the next vid! Cheers, Jason

Thanks Jason! Wow, been using RT all this time and I didn't even realise that was an option, thanks for the tip! Will definitely change that next time im on TunerPro. Like you said, it makes more sense with it swapped the old way, bit weird looking at the values opposite to what the vacuum gauge is showing i think. I will set up the shortcuts also, that's an awesome little hack. Hopefully more tuning on the way this weekend!

Own an an u myself, would love to see an au added on here 🎉🎉

@Late-Night-Nate 4 месяца назад

Always wanted another AU so watch this space...👀👀😅😅. I had an AU XR6 ute a few years ago which i wrote off, actually really wanted another AU to replace it with but got a BA instead. Getting hard to find nice AU's that aren't thrashed these days sadly

Dude! Just randomly found ya channel and loving it, been trying to learn how to deal with late model diesel tuning as most of mate's running dmax etc but afew still got Falcons & dunnydores that aren't a 302w or 308 with holley carbs on lol. Cheers n beer's 🤘🏻🍻

@Late-Night-Nate 4 месяца назад

Awesome, cheers dude!! One thing i always wanted to get into was diesels. Had an old 1KZ turbo Hiace van years ago and that started the diesel bug for me, but that died and ended up getting stuck back into the Falcon's again😂

nice! i started learning tuner pro recently after chucking a cam in. some of it is so confusing lol

@Late-Night-Nate 2 месяца назад

Good stuff mate!! It definitely does take some time to wrap your head around, especially if you are completely new to it. Keep at it! 👍🏻

@190mitchidproductions7 4 месяца назад

yeah, running real phat on the fuel, you also might want to retard timing a lil bit at the first and second rpm table, you could easily trim more off the whole table, it wants a leaner burn all the way through, and i know its more difficult but you could also check your spark plugs and see how much carbon buildup you have if you do not have a v band, much love from aus

@Late-Night-Nate 4 месяца назад

That comment right there is 100% spot on, great info right there, thanks mate!! Will definitely have a play with the timing around idle and see if it settles it down a bit. I'm anticipating the plugs will be fairly fouled as is, but will be sure to check their condition once i start getting the mixtures and timing dialed in. I have an AEM Wideband kit on the way this week, so can't wait to get that installed so I actually know what AFR's I'm dealing with

@190mitchidproductions7 4 месяца назад

@Late-Night-Nate beautiful, yeah I mess with tuner pro a Lil bit, my 3.8 keeps up with stock ls1's really easily, vt commodore ftw

@michaelbyrnes7944 3 месяца назад

I’m subscribed now you’re the best to watch on RU-vid with e series falcons. Falcons falcons falcons love it .. I sold my el xr6 but I’ll never sell my xr xh Ute it’s way better than my 98 vs commodore Ute

@Late-Night-Nate 2 месяца назад

Cheers mate!! Definitely hold on to that XH XR6, they are a damn cool ute! Very rare to come across where I'm from

@michaelbyrnes7944 2 месяца назад

@@Late-Night-Nate I know we’re one ☝️ more is in coraki nsw I’m in lismore I love the xh but I only need one I’m going to find out if I can buy it then I’ll re sell it maybe it’s a manual white in colour and has the series 2 front bar the good looking one

Where did you get the wheels from bro?

@Late-Night-Nate 4 месяца назад

Hey bro, I scored these from a random Ford wrecker i come across that had them listed on Facebook marketplace. Came off a 1995 Ford DF LTD, these are just the factory 15" chrome wheels they come with
