Beta Tester Needed - Fuel Cut Eliminator

[NSNMotorsports]

Hey guys,



I have completed my FCD circuits after 3 months of research and careful development. They are precision calibrated devices made to be dead accurate. However, as a final measure to ensure the quality of these products I hand built some sample FCD's (the final production ones will have commercially etched boards instead of point to point wire like the protos) and want to get at least one into a car with a wideband.



So what I'm looking for: An MSP driver who is beginning to regularily hit fuel cut and who has a wideband (no narrowbands please) installed in their car. The individual must understand that there is some risk involved due to the possibility of leaning out the car, as well as a very remote chance of problems or damage to their MAF and ECU if something was incorrect (I have taken every precaution possible to ensure this will not happen).



I have more Beta Testers than I need that do NOT have widebands, so I'm searching for one last individual who can round out my test group.



Please post or PM me for more details, or to offer your services as a tester. We will work out final details and agreements from there.



Lastly. The Beta tester will receive a full production level unit after the tests have been completed!



Thanks!

MetalMP5 just installed his wideband LM-1 in his speed yesterday. I'll make sure he chimes in, as he may be very interested.

Cool! Thanks Focus!

 

[Metal MP5]

someone called me ?

 

[Metal MP5]

ok i just read the post.

what is fuel cut ? ....... lol

i'm in. I am now hitting fuel cut without even using my boost controller since my exhaust was installed. I have the Innovate Motorsports LM1 Wideband

so let me know what you think

To the rescue?

Would the above be of interest to you? Let me know an we'll discuss it further via PM. I do need you to be hitting cut at least somewhat regularily so we can verify that the device is effective.

The device has a high and low cut setting, as well as a warning light and a bypass switch. So it is the most advanced and safe device out to date. It also should be the most accurate as I have spent countless hours ensuring dead on accuracy of the signal without any biasing which takes a fair number of precision electronics to achieve.

i'll PM you in a sec

Sounds good... I'll pm you now.

Say, How bout you guys PM each other. J/K

Another great product to hit within a months time. Might be some hope for us yet.

 

[TurfBurn]

Would you like a PM too?

But anyway... if there are any other products that you think you guys would have a decent appetite for just let me know and I'll add it to our development schedule! We are all about developing the new and the unique to fit all the needs that you guys have!

Bumping back up...

Tests went well on Metal MP5's car. However, I'm looking to do at least one more test to verify that the final revision is drop in and go (we had to make one adjustment for Metal MP5's and then it was fine). So I still need a beta tester or two.

To this point I have had numerous people offer, and then they later back out or stop responding. So I'm still hanging in the wind with prototypes sitting on my desk. Hence we had expected to be on market with these months ago, and are STILL trying to finish the testing.

So if anyone is interested here is the deal:

What I need from you: 29 bucks to cover some of the shipping and the fact that you will eventually get a full production FCD in the future. Then you need to install the part and get back to me about if the car did or didn't run ok. It should run just fine, so no real worry.

The bad news: And FCD is a good thing and a bad thing. It's a good thing because it gets rid of fuel cut and makes the car driveable to a little bit more boost. It's a bad thing because the only way to get that to occur is to trick sensors which then leads to leaning out the car which can then lead to detonation which then leads to another rebuild thread on the forums. That's why our FCD is unique and particularily good for you guys. It has an indicator light that lets you know when you are reaching cut and that you need to back off. It also has a bypass switch that lets you get around it with just the flip of a switch and then no worries and fuel cut is back if you want it. Also, it has two different levels so that you can set it very high and close to fuel cut limit (which may not work in all cars and may still get fuel cut) or set it a little lower to get rid of fuel cut in the more stubborn cars. So it has options and features that make it the best that it can be.

So with that being said, if you understand all of the above and are interested please contact me and I'll ship one out for you early this coming week and you'll be all set.

In fact, you don't even need an MSP, and you don't even need to be hitting fuel cut. You just need to test the device for driveability. I KNOW it works on fuel cut. I just need to verify the last adjustment. You may ask what happens if the adjustment is wrong or didn't work? Well, then the car simply doesn't start, or will run quite badly and you'll know better than to do anything with it. Otherwise you'll never know the difference and it'll all work beautifully!

thanks much!

so, you dont require a wideband for this test? if not, i'm up for it..

 

[TurfBurn]

yeah no wideband needed this time around.

 

[casper]

I'm still interested, just need the $29, lol.

 

[TurfBurn]

Beta test slots have been filled!

Assuming all goes well the FCD's will hit the market in less than 2 weeks.

thanks guys!

can someone explain to me whats happens to your car when you hit fuel cut??? i mean like how do you know that you hit fuel cut???

 

[TurfBurn]

The car feels like it hits a brick wall from my understanding. Probably feels similar to a governor. I've never hit it myself as I don't have a stock ECU. But that's my understanding.

The ECU is basically freaking out and pulling a lot of fuel from the car which causes it to have no power at all.

Does this FCD work by monitoring the electrical signal or does it have a boost sensor like the JoeP FCD. The JoeP worked wonders for smoothing out the car but, it scares me now that I have seen many dyno pulls showing the car leaning out up to 4000 rpm's. Joe's switch is activated between 0-1 psi so I'm assuming it starts leaning things out right were the car is already running too lean. I believe his cuts the voltage in half once the switch is activated. Does your device leave the signal alone until it is getting closer to fuel cut? Mulitple settings and the added light to know when it is activated are great features. Keep up the great work! I hope you guys get your hand on the klunk fix brackets too!

Mine senses the voltage and is supposed to ONLY alter the voltage right at the maximum limit. Otherwise it passes the signal unhindered. That way you don't lean anything else out. One of the beta units went in and it seems to be doing fine but it started running rough under boost. I don't know what is going on and I haven't gotten all the info back just yet to figure it out. But there is no pressure switch, it only cares about the voltage and making sure it doesn't go over the fuel cut limit point.
