So far so good.... thinking about trying to get a 12A to put in a go-kart.... any ideas folks?

10A should be enough IMO

Guys was wondering if you can help with some EBC questions. I have read kanes how to tune your ebc and it was a great help in understanding what is actually happening as well as what functions do. Ill give you my situation and see if you can help with any pointers.

My target is 9 psi so i change my set boost setting to 8.0 approximately 1 psi short of my target. I take my initial reading with the recording feature on by boosting at WOT? And should i be doing this in any specific gear as well as is this a progressive WOT it seems the more throttle i give it the larger the psi will climb as i believe it should so how do you know where to stop? Now once i see the initial curve i begin to go up in increments of 5 with my set feature which please help me understand increases or decreases spool time as well as targets the PSI I would like (at WOT?). Once i have the set feature dialed to approximately 9psi at WOT I begin to use Gain which should allow me to hold the 9psi to redline. Now also assuming i have the same setups as some GT3071r your settings should put me close to doing what is intended correct with only slight variations pending everything is installed correctly?

 

What EBC do you have?

Your start boost might be a little high. You don't want to overshoot your target.

 

^ Sorry Kane thanks for chiming in. I actually have the Profec E-01 i initially had that in the post and well my cat ran across the keyboard erasing everything.......not cool so i might have half assed the explanation on the second go around....

Said crazy cat no traction on wood floors lol. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FQkwoKjPHnE

 

Now thats funny!
I mean its not funny---but ----yea it is !

4th gear is good for EBC tuning.... set boost at 6 - then log to se if you get past your target or not

 

LMAO Ken,.. you had me gasping for air with that.. LOL thats terrible.

 

Kane et. al., Appreciate the knowledge & dedication to the forum. Definitely value in viewing dynos, but these only tell half the story. For those of us looking for trq/ power AND reliability ... would be of value to see a "Longest Running FI Set-up" thread which speaks volumes to the overall quality of the kit, install, & tune. What do yas think?

 

good idea--I am for it.

A lot of variables in that one... but it should be a fun argument to read.

 

That will depend a lot on the owner driver

Ever wonder why Jeff goes through engines.....

It isn't cause he drives like a Grandma

 

but i am old enough to be a GrandPa?
OD

 

Yup ...kinda the point in it. In addition to trq / hp curves... top contenders in "Miles on Set-up"...given the kit, install, tune, & driving style, e.g. daily driven, tracked or what not; could be another *factor* to *assist* in determining truly quality set-ups.

 

I started a build thread, see signature. I guess I can be added.

 

Can I join? Build thread: https://www.rx8club.com/series-i-major-horsepower-upgrades-93/dondos-supercharger-build-199340/

 

Can't see why not.......

 

maybe cause we need Kane to check the forum and invite me. His group is invite only.

 

The way I read it, if you read FI for dummys then and do a build thread you qualify......But he's in Never Never land presently.....

 

i won't ask where that is....

 

Sorry, the war calls on us sometimes.

I will get caught back up as soon as I can.
