is there any major advantage to using the boost controller that comes with this system over my current boost controller (profec b spec2)? such as the maftpro adjusting boost based on A/F or o2's or anything similar?
Also, can you plug This Wideband O2 directly up to the maftpro without purchasing anything else?
another question that isnt as important, but i would like to learn more about... which knock deterant system would work the best in conjuction with maftpro? (propane, meth/water, alchohol)
Thanks for the help! |
The RPM threshold is there to keep the solenoid off until you need it. Since you can hear it buzz, it makes sense to delay it slightly. You can always set it to enable really early.
The solenoid stays energized (preventing the boost from getting to the wastegate) until the boost is above the "Start Psi" which you can set. This way if your boost tends to overshoot, you can have the Pro turn off 'spool mode' earlier.
The Boost is currently independent of A/F or other stuff. If it makes sense to link the functions we can certainly do that. A future release of the Pro software will have overboost protection which the aftermarket controllers can't do (AFAIK). By integrating the boost control into the Pro, it saves you money.... and you can log the boost control paramters along with the other stuff to the laptop.
I like alky injection, I usually use denatured alky from Home Depot, works great.
See my previous post about the wideband, but you can't just plug a sensor into the unit.
