Option to delete/modify cold start?

Post by ChaoticWeaponry »

Hey guys,

New to these forums, but have had my Ktuner for a while.
Curious if there's a way to delete or modify the cold start tune? I notice the ignition timing shifts retarded and more fuel is dumped in, likely to warm up the catalytic converter faster.
I may-or-may-not have removed said devices and dislike the extra noise at startup (neighbors probably don't like it too much, either)
2013 Accord with the J35, 6AT if that matters at all.

If there's something that can be beta tested, I would love to give feedback and test it out.

Thanks!

You'll find everything you need in parameters.

Thanks for the reply!
Is there something in specific I'm looking for? Cold start doesn't follow the standard ignition table/closed loop table, nor does it follow anything else that I saw.

Figured I'd be looking for idle ignition timing adjustment, but I don't think I have the options to adjust any of that.

Is there something that I'm missing perhaps?
Thanks again.

Fueling and ignition adjustments based on ECT.

For grins and giggles, I set all of the ECT timing adjustments to 0, all of the ECT fueling adjustments (except cranking) to 0, and set the WOT fuel tables to 14.7 in the idling area (both cat heating and standard)
Car still starts up and goes to -5 to -10 degrees of ignition timing for the first 15ish seconds and does the normal loud 'cold start'.

Maybe there's a separate 'map' that the car follows on cold startup?

That's always going to happen. You're now talking about cranking, not the cold start warm up cycle. Not something the software can change.
