Perfect Power SMP6

Does anyone have any experience with this???? There is a guy here that tunes Grand Nationals, Hondas, Fords, EVO's ext... with this thing. He swares by this, and says its the best thing since sliced bread. I am very interested in this, its only about $300 and the layout is very simple, and the software is very user friendly.

IIRC the MPI tuner is based on this.

So that means its good right???? If so, Im getting it today, and installing it.

Is it the same thing? This would be a great find if it is, or at least is really similar... Especially for that $- let us know how it works out!

FEATURES & BENEFITS OF THE SMT6
All piggy-back units are reliant on the exiting ECU to provide the fuel and ignition to the engine. For this reason they are bound by the limitations of the existing ECU. Fuel is typically modified by changing the load sensor or lambda sensor signal. Ignition is done by delaying or advancing the crank angle sensors signal. The piggy-back unit tricks the ECU into thinking that it is running under different conditions thereby allowing for a different output.

Wiring diagrams
With exception of the new inputs, the SMT6 wiring is identical to SMT5 wiring. Our wiring diagram database has over 650 diagrams and can be found on the development CD supplied in the development kit. Diagrams can also be requested via customer support.

Ok Im the proud owner of this unit. I just purchased it.

Now, I called a PP rep here, his name is Mark (Turbo Tune). He said this piggy can adjust timing, controll bigger injectors, and additional injectors.

I couldnt justify spending $800+ to get what I want. This is just as good, and from a reputable company.

The MPI tuner is a modified version of the SMT-6. MPNick had the hardware and software reworked for use on the protege. I'm not sure if the standard SMT-6 works on the protege, but that list of features you posted looks exactly like what I can do with the mpi.

Good luck man.

Thanks 505, I trust this guy here. Hes been working on my car for a long time now, and trying to tune it. We thought we had a breakthrough with a diablo chip, but after 5 days the ECU completely ignored it. It just plugged into the back of the ECU, you removed the black tab, and slid it in. But, it didnt work for a long time, I almost blew the engine!!!

I wonder if you can load any of MPI's maps into this and have a good starting point?

505..you got an answer to this?

You know thats a good question. If this is capable of those maps, then WOOT!!!!

I love it when i make people go "Hmmmmm?"

I dont think they will be happy if we do this. I might have to pay mpnick for the maps. Or I can just see what Mark comes out with and post the download for it.

Everyone shares maps man. The software of the MPI Tuner has differnt features that you SMT-6 may not have, so there could be problems if you loaded a map. You can just enter the values manually though.

Using a map from another PCM is doing nothing wrong..Nick does not own the maps...the owner of the unit does..it is their settings.It wouldnt work right for your particular set-up anyway..that maps woudl have to be altered to your configuration so I dont see any harm as using them for Base maps.

This is true.

Mark is telling me that he can set 4 new injectors in the Intake mani. I dont know about this, but I know Terry had this set up on his MP3.
I think he wants to work these with a MAP sensor.

Little Beavis also has this setup with the 4 extra injectors and the MPI Tuner. He uses the MAF though.

 

[ghost]

So you would recommend this Linux?? Hes going to do all this for around a grand. I have to supply an intake mani, but I have an extra engine here.

He says he doesnt like to install injectors on the intake because its not going to be an accurate mixture, and he also says it will get fuel fludding.

The MPI is a modified version of the SMT-6. The SW is setup to work different than the standard SMT-6, so I don't think the Maps can be used, but it's worth a shot. If you were to try to use the old SW on the MPI box, it would lock it up because the HW is different too. That's what I'm told. Good luck, if you want to try some maps, I'm sure there will be plenty for you to use.

I would do the intake manifold. If I had the extra time (read money), I would go that route.

so mike, is mark going to tune your car. If so, wow, should make some power.
