We really need to start using emoticons after every post to stop these misunderstandings.

I'm hoping that Mike will go over these issues with their customers before they'll buy this product.

Just want you to know that before you go doing it and people need to come back for re-tunes because of issues that still need figured out. It is not really ready for the "retail" type market yet, if that makes sense.

In the v7 thread tephra and I posted up, we clearly state that you must know what you are doing when converting to SD and to read the SD thread on implementation so you understand what is going on. No including in that thread there are people having issues with temperature change and other things. Do what you want but I am just letting you know because I am the one testing this stuff and am experiencing weird things as well.
You are absolutely correct. We have experienced a few minor issues, but so far the benefits have outweighed the minor issues. Customers have been in agreement as well.

I appreciate your help to the community as well with your testing. Hopefully the minor bugs can be worked out.

These were just forum links and I am glad you read them.

The issues we are having are within our own testing group trying to resolve the problem before we release the fix. Your right the issue is prob. minor but we don't accept minor issues, only no issues.

There is an issue that I have found that wasn't linked to in this thread, that I think everyone should be aware of. It is a jumpy IPW around 1800-2400RPM and 50-80 kpa or so (going off of memory). I will link you to the thread to read, if you want. But, at the very least, people running SD and tuning SD should be aware of it, just in case you experience it as well.

Edit: OK, it starts at post #49 in this thread. The cause has never been found to this point...I may be doing some more testing soon. But, others have experienced this as well. I still think all of the benefits of SD outweigh this one issue that I have found, but you and your customers should be aware of it.

Eric,

Thanks for finding it, I thought we posted it somewhere but I couldn't remember, too many things going on.

FWIW I am experiencing the exact same issue as well. So it is not year specific. It's def. in the ROM! So is the the throttle hang......

So... when it is recommended one do the switch over to Speed Density on our cars?

Aftermarket Turbo Kits (ETS, AMS, Full Race, GT30R/35R40R)????

Stock-Housing Turbo Upgrades (FP Green/Red/Black, BBK Lite/Full/XL)????

100, 105, 110 Leaded, or e85 and turning up the wick on the boost?


Just curious, thanks!



Will

Hey Mike-

Question for you because I am looking to buy the sensors from you -and since I couldn't have you install it on my car because I am 1000+ miles away... When you guys install the sensors - where do you guys put the GM AIT sensor? Do you put it on the UICP or the IM?

Does it make a difference?


Thank you

We put the AIT sensor in the UICP.. We have recently switched to having it after the BOV closer to the TB to having it before BOV as we have found the BOV to mess with it a little bit..

Thanks for the info, Mike!


One more question for you...Do you weld a bung into the UICP and then screw the AIT into it? If so - do you / will you include the bung when I order the sensors?

This almost gives me a reason to come on down to Ft. Lauterdale, but no a/c makes me think again. LOL. I wouldn't be able to come until my "vacation" from Iraq in the summer.....
