What does the piggyback control? Can it adjust timing, or just fuel? Does it utilize the stock injectors, or will it require additional or larger injectors? Sorry for all the questions, but I am VERY interested in this, and it sounds like your first set of maps will be made for my car exactly. Keep up the good work, you guys rock:)

edit: I almost forgot, could I use a mac G4 laptop to tune the piggyback? I have a broken VAIO laptop that I could have fixed, but I would rather not...it sucks.

We will have available in 2 weeks a high resolution piggy back fuel computer that will alleviate all fuel problems that the Mazdaspeeds are currently experiencing.

Expect pricing to be in the realm of $500-$700

These computers will be pre tuned specifically for the MSP

Stay tuned for dyno sheets and A/F results:D


from my understanding it will not adjust timing..or he would have mentioned it, and it would be more expensive....also I believe that it utilizes stock injectors...or again he would have said something and the price would not be there.
just trying to help out..:D
 
(drinks) (yippy) (yippy) (yippy) (yippy) Finally, a step in the right direction. THANKS Spool!!
 
SPOOL, I love you man!! We all need to pol some cash and send him a couple hookers and a case of beer. You know to help him relax!! He'll work better ;) Couple Q's. Wil it be plug and play?? Hope so. Also will there possibly be a way to tune it without a laptop? Don't have one nor the cash to get one. Possibly tune with a pda or something like that???
 
Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, etc...

Terry rules, Terry rules, Terry rules, Terry rules, Terry rules, etc...


I think you get the point!

THANK YOU SPOOL!!!!!

(now PLEASE GOD....LET ME GET SOME MONEY!!!!!)
 
Will you be able to download maps (and at additional cost?) if you are stock now, and plan to be adding things down the line?
Yes:)

The lord knows I need that:p
I work to much:)

You are absolutley correct
 
Can this piggyback be used on cars that are flashed or is this for unflashed ecu's or does it even matter? Also will the piggyback have to be spliced in or will it be a plug in unit? And you say the unit will be able to support up to 15 psi.. Now is that a safe psi to be at with stock rods and pistons with mods as well???
 
Spool------

so this piggyback will only deal with fuel correct? And it comes with a map that is tuned for fmic exhaust and a cai? What boost will it be tuned for? I know it wont be tuned for 15 psi because that would be danger to the stock internals. you said it could be tuned up to 15 psi... what does this mean exactly.

Also, can boost be altered in any way by this unit? Will a fuel cut defender need to be used in conjunction with this unit to run higher than max maf flow (ie 11 psi?)

mighty fine questions,

Terry?
 
This is really good news. I've never ised piggy backs before so I'll have a few questions. Where exactly does it plug in? And will I have to do any programming whatsoever? Or do I just install it (whereever it is installed) and whenever I decide to run different settings it will automatically adjust? Terry, you said it will be for 15psi + FMIC + exhaust + CAI...does this mean if I'm running an SRI + different size FMIC from Spool's + Different size exhaust than Spool's + say 13psi I wont be able to use this? I think I need like a FAQs on piggy backs...any around here?
The other thing too is, I am also concerned about the pistons and rods being able to sustain these settings. Any input on this front? Thanks.
 
the emanage will control the fuel on flashed or unflashed mps, the flashed ones will not be able to run as high boost since they have slightly advanced timing over the unflashed ones.

when he says that the maps will be adjusted up to 15psi, that means it will work for all boost ranges below 15. on my emanage its currently tuned for 12psi, however im only running 7-8. it will use a pressure sensor to determine the amount of boost that you are running, and which map to run off of. also with the use of the communications tool, and a laptop you can self tune it to your specific mods if you have a wideband.

i hope that answered some of your questions.

You answered my questions perfectly. Thanks. I'm still confused why flashed cars can't run as high boost as unflashed cars though. I mean, the timing is advanced so that means combustion in the cylinders occurs earlier - so how does that prevent running the same levels of boost otherwise?
 
it increases the chance for detonation to occur. if its happening before you want it to, like when the piston is in a down position, bad things happen.

So then is there a maximum boost level that flashed cars can run and if so what is it?
