Is the group buy going to take like 3 month's ? I've never done one buy i've seen on the board that it takes a long time.perfworks said:We would like to be ready for the beginning of march. Once we get a few units back from testing we will confirm operation one more time. After that, Dyno runs, Tuning and confirmation again, we will post results and begin to reviel all our findings. AT that point we will start a GB.
Once the units are dyno run though we will start to take orders. So that we make sure we can get the demand filled. The responce has been overwhelming to say the least. I appreciate everyones comments and questions.
Thank you all for your patience. It wont be long now.
If there are any more questions feel free to ask. I will do my best to answer all of them.
Not in standard form. BUT it is an interesting thought to get working. Very good idea. Let me work on thatVizaX said:Information Overload...
Wow, thats all I can say. I do have one questions,
Will the parrallel also contain a Turbo timer?
simple enough
Oh yes, Great work!
The group buy will be only two weeks. Maybe longer depending on the responce.ViksMSP said:Is the group buy going to take like 3 month's ? I've never done one buy i've seen on the board that it takes a long time.
And another question, (sorry, couldn't help my self) is the transition from closed to open loop going to be harsh like it is now, since you're doing it only when you hit the boost. Let's say i'd be cruising along and go to pass someone, but not too fast, and accidently go into boost for just a second is it going to jerk around, kind of like it does know at like 4500 rpm at half throuttle?
Thanks,
Vik.

just one more i promise.
those of us that have downpipes without cats and installed resistors so that we don't pull a CEL, will we be able to get rid of the resistor? cause I think that's although it doesn't pull a CEL it kind of screw's up the AFR's a bit. What do you think, resistor a good fix or a temporary one?
Thanks again,
Vik.
Right now we are focussing on the most important unit. Parallel. We are hoping to keep a forum GB price of $1450. for the unit. Wideband option and boost control solenoid is extra. After a two week GB we are going to be selling it at retail only. The problem we face is that AEM pricing policy needs to be met and we have alot of time and R&D into the unit. We are going to very close to our cost with the unit. The great thing is this unit will and can be used in many applications that we will designate in the future. So its marketability is great.AnthonyO3 said:I think this is great nick, but i might have missed it, or you might not have listed it yet, but what kind of price are we looking at here? And how long are you going to offer it?
The industry has branded the term "limp homemode" It means that the vehicles diagnostic system has encouted a serious constant trouble code that hasnt been fixed. After many drive cycles it will cause the car to switch to horrible secondary open loop mapping. Your timing and fuel curves will be horrendously conservative and develop little power. Enough to get you "home" (or the dealer). The the ecu needs to be reset and you start all over again. Usually it wont hold the code (store it) for long but if it continues after battery disconnections it will maintain it so as to be relavant when you go for inspection.igdrasil said:nick, sorry to ask this...but, what is the limp mode...and if its bad, how do I get rid of it and what may have cause the ECU to go limp?
perfworks said:Not like piggybacks that will go outside the various parameters and set check engines lights confusing the ECU into thinking something is terribly wrong.
ViksMSP said:Dude, MPnick, you've got two posts where you're arguing already, why come in here, if people wanted to read your opinions they would read the other two, where both of you are going at it. This is info only, so please just stop it already. What makes you think he was talking about yours? Are you feeling helpless or something?
