Default Re: 1G Electronic Boost Data Logging

Nice work

My thoughts exactly.
Mainly going to be using it to set the mbc anyway then after that it will be a log with alarms. My stock boost solenoid only works about 70% of the time.

I didn't think there was a wiring diagram until I reread your first post and saw -
+5V - TPS Connector (Green/White)
Ground - EGTR Connector (A22 - Black)
Signal - EGTR Connector (A22 - Green/Black)
that is all I needed. I am also going to mount it under the hood. I ordered the 2.5bar sensor from digikey but it will not be in until the end of the month.
Really quit excited about it.

MAP sensor / Palm is an interesting alternative to installing a dedicated turbo gage and offers the option of alarms and logging.

In the brief time I hooked up a manual goost gage, I found if difficult/dangerous to monitor boost while at WOT. With the logger, I can focus on driving with alarms set for O2, Knock, INJD and Boost and then review data after the run.

NEXT PROJECT
Next thing on my list are some mods to the MMCd SW (peak / log triggers) and an interface for adding additional instrumentation to the MMCd logger.

New inputs would include:

o Boost
o EGT
o Wideband O2
o Speed
- MPG
- 0-60 timing
- AWD HP
o Intake Manifold Air Temp
o Fuel Pressure
o Oil Pressure
o Others
