- 1997 Audi ABZ 4.2 liter 32valve V8
- firing order: 1-5-4-8-6-3-7-2
17oct spark map as tweaked by VE autotune - at least I did not change the values myself and these are not what I entered ;]
It's extremely unlikely that VE autotune would change your ignition advance table. Even if it would change (by an error that hasn't been experienced by others), guess the chance to get such a reasonable table as result.
If looking at the fire order: 1548´6372
Put a line break in the middle and you have the cylinders that fire at the same time in each column.
1 5 4 8
6 3 7 2
Where I suggest that the coils are wired like this:
Coil ECU pin
1 35
6 33
5 34
3 36
4 11
7 12
8 24
2 10
The above settings is backwards, you want them filled in like this:
0 Drive_07
1 Drive_05
2 Drive_03
3 Drive_01
4 Drive_07
5 Drive_05
6 Drive_03
7 Drive_01
The dwell is a bit on the high side, 1.8-2mS is probably enough for your coils. 'Coil chargetimie added at 6v' seem fine.
This will probably have to be fine tuned with a timing light. Change 'TDC After trigger(deg)' until the actual and commanded timing is the same.
