Locating MUT addresses in dissasembled Colt Ralliart code

February 10, 2023 // 0 Comments

This is really short post on how to translate a MUT memory address into something you can locate in the dissasembled code. In windows calculator, switch to programmer mode. Then to Hex. Enter in 808000 then minus the MUT address (eg 804e90) your interested in. Eg: 808000-804e90 = 3170 In your dissassembly program search for Immediate Value (in IDA pro for example its the binoculars icon with the blue #).  Enter in 0xvalue – in above example 0x3170. This will locate all examples of where this memory location was read or set. If you’re wanting to log a memory address you can see in the code, but not in the MUT table, its the reverse: Lets say its something like this (2 byte load memory address for CVT rcolt): Locating 2b byte [...]

DRIVETRIBE Colt Groups

December 1, 2016 // 0 Comments

The ex-TopGear guys have launched a social network for car enthusiasts. I think it looks pretty good on initial impressions. I’ve set up a group for turbocolt.com on Drivetribe here https://www.drivetribe.com/t/SN-lTIwrTpmEt8EG4IJE-g/S4hh4CEjSsKsdfTkwdgWuw You can use it to follow updates on here, and to get other not blog post worthy updates and photos.  I don’t intend on it being as large asthe other Colt groups but who knows, it might take off more than expected. So what are the other larger Colt groups on DriveTribe? Check out these ones: Colt Status (run by Rcolt.com Facebook team) link here TurboColtUK (run by TurbColtUK Facebook team) link here Ralliart Colt Adelaide (run by me for the local scene in Adelaide, South [...]

Colt Ralliart 2 Byte Load

May 13, 2016 // 0 Comments

If you have ever logged your ECU Load on a stock Ralliart Colt or Colt Version R, you might have noticed it peaks at 159.375.  According to Merlin’s EVO guides, it equates to somewhere between 11 & 15 psi: Boost vs EcuLoad For colts, I’ve found 160 load to equate to around 13-15psi.  But most of us are running higher? How can we reliably tune the car when ECU Load stops reporting load past 14psi? The answer is 2 byte load. Colt Ralliart 2 Byte Load Evoscan (and Tactrix SD card) logging can handle something called 2 byte load but to do that some changes are needed to your MUT table, and also your logging configuration. Before we get into that, some more background. ECU Load is only 1 byte load. To log it, only one MUT [...]

Ralliart Colt Fast Throttle Mod

May 13, 2016 // 0 Comments

A year ago I started racing my Ralliart Colt at a local hillclimb in the Barossa valley (www.collingrovehillclimb.com.au).  At the time my car was still running the stock exhaust and as a result delivered its power in a rather torquey, all or nothing kind of powerband low in the rev range.  It was very hard to control wheelspin on this narrow winding tarmac and it was very frustrating seeing my car perform well in the first two sections of the hillclimb, only to be a second slower in the last third of the course relative to other competitors.  It felt like the car had the heaviest flywheel ever, so heavy, that it was impossible to control wheelspin once boost set in.  No amount of throttle control seemed to help – it was either [...]

Ralliart Colt Bad Flash Cant Idle

September 24, 2015 // 0 Comments

Occasionally, a flash will go bad.  There are a few causes, but if the following happens, this is how to fix it: Ralliart Colt Bad Flash Cant Idle Problem Flash goes as per normal – no errors are enountered When you go to start your Colt Turbo, it idles rough as, like the engines about to stall, it sounds very very sick. It just can’t idle normally. You’ll also have an engine check light (CEL) showing. The first time it happened to me I turned it off, back on, and found the idle was still terrible. I then flashed it again, and again. Still no good. The solution is to grab another ROM in your possession that is a fair bit different – either the stock ROM, or one that is a lot different to your current tune, and [...]

Ralliart Colt More Boost with Stock 2 Port

September 22, 2015 // 0 Comments

WANT MORE BOOST – BUT NO 3 PORT? Assuming you have already done the pill out mod and have in your possession a Tactrix Openport2…   Your next option for more boost with stock 2 port is to adjust the two WGDC (Wastegate Duty Cycle) maps to be 100% in the 3 row area between 2500-3500, and one row at 6000: By doing this, your wastegate will be closed longer and your Ralliart Colt will run more boost with stock 2 port boost control solenoid.  You might need to pull timing back a little to prevent knocking though, so it’s best to do this combined with logging either on Evoscan or via the Tactrix SD Card logging facility. I’ll write a guide on logging & another on ignition changes at some point. There are some maps out [...]
