Got the X-flash!!
ok. dosnt taking the pill out cause boost spikes?
on a off note, what is your idea about the pill in the clutch hose, remove or leave it there?
And how do u know so darn much stuff mp5??????
Is that the Urban Cowboy now?

With the stage 1 plus X-Flash, is the whp around 285? I know there is also a post here with the same Stage 1 set-up but with an XEDE and XEDE-Flash?

Isnt 22-23 psi even if it only for a few seconds too much? I mean Works has a different boost hose that has tobe installed to be able to hold 19 psi to redline? Is this just a gimick to sell thier own product?
And also how many people have this xflash, and how long has it been out without any issues?
Thanks.

Shiv,
You say that with your tune, "momentary 22-23psi, quickly reducing to 19psi, where it tapers gradually down to 18psi by fuel cut".
I have the Signature Turbo Back, custom tuned. Subsequently (as a result of factory boost cut), I added an SBC ID electronic boost controler. It appears to hold full boost to redline (21-21.5 psi). How does the SBC ID and the Xede boost control parameters interact? Also, am I at risk holding full boost to redline if I intend to use the car at road course events for up to one hour runs?
Thanks.
Stephen

BTW I did a whole track weekend in texas heat on pump gas monitoring a number of conditions and the Stage 1 Xede was flawless

Ive got 8K on my car with 400 HP to the crank 2 Full track weekends, 3 Autox, 8 drag passes and no slips or signs of wear. I dont see a need to do the clutch thing. Some swear by it
Thanks thats nice- I easily remember things
No thats the Royal Tennenbaums
Shiv,
I dont think Ill be going to Cali soon. I have the same stage 1 set-up with a Walbro 255l and ARP head studs. How much would it cost me and how many HP and TQ do you think will my set-up XFlash for 93 octane?
Thanks.

Hi guys,
XFlash is a bit different when it comes to boost control. With it, we do what we do with the XEDE. That is, we allow for a mild overboost in the midrange, between 4000-5000rpm which improves torque substantially. But at high RPM, we still employ a gradual boost taper like stock, but not as steep. This allows us to run reasonable advance numbers which makes the car consistent, run after run. We've found that trying to hold boost steady to redline makes the car awfully ping prone and inconsistent-- espeically in lower octane conditions like in CO, CA, AZ, WA, etc,. Peak boost, in stock cars, is a momentary 22-23psi, quickly reducing to 19psi, where it tapers gradually down to 18psi by fuel cut. This basically allows us to keep a healthy distance between operation and knock throughout the entire RPM band. I have dyno graphs of a couple of cars we've done in the last week which I will put on-line as soon as our scanner starts working. It illustrates the effects of the revised boost control quite nicely. In all the cars tested (all completely stock Evos), hp rose from 195-197whp to 218-222whp on the baseline map-- no custom tuning. Torque had similarly impressive gains. Consistently. This made me happy

I have some questions about your Xflash. From reading your post it looks like you can do rpm based boost control with your reflash, is that correct? Also on your website it says there will be a Xflashtuner to adjust boost, timing and fuel. Will this Xflashtuner be like a piggyback or can we actually use it to reflash the ECU by ourself? If you can give more info about the Xflashtuner that would be great thanks.
So, even for the base Xflash, you will still need to remove hoses and change to the ones without the pill? Is this for both the Xflash and the Xede, or just the Xede? My understanding was there were no changes except for the computer reflashing with the Xflash.

Do you know what it raises the fuel cut to? Also what if we have a good 255 pump what is the MAX boost that is safe? 23-24psi to redline? Right now I lowered the low end 4500 and down from 23 PSI to 20 and it feels better, maybe because the top end pulls harder then the bottome end.
