Justhill,


The V2 controller has a small cut out on the right hand side . The cut out is very small(about 1/4 of an inch) and it exposes the two tiny white switches.

I took apart the controller and there were NO dipswitches on the board itself. I dunno :\

thatsMR2u: What are you start and max settings? I think I've got mine dialed in pretty good now

start at 14 max about 25 but im gonna be turning it down to about 23 cause im getting one or two counts of knock at full torque (28psi).. see the problem is i will spike up to 28 psi in the first gear i floor it in (or if i floor it in 5th or 6th on the highway) but then if i shift at redline the next gear will only make 25 psi (cause its sitting at 4800 rpms) and hold to about 22-23
so if u set max under that 25 each longer gear gets richer and richer and drops into the 10's.. all to compensate for that one gear of 28 psi

let me know if that makes sense...

Yes that makes total sense. My boost doesnt spike as bad as that.. at least not in 1st/2nd gear. The only time my peak boost will fluxuate is if I got WOT at 4000+. Each gear has taper til 4th which is normally pretty flat. I'd assume as the boost tapers less alky is actually being injected.

So my logic was if you have your max set too high.. you're not getting as much alky as quickly as could be needed with a fast spooling turbo. If it's too high and you taper it wont be "max" throughout the full powerband.

I dunno I'm still a noob to this.. I've only had it since friday and to be honest I haven't done all my homework on it yet

^^ anyone care to comment on that.

It was so hot today I didn't really want to do any tuning. Intake temps during cruizing were 120+

Ok so they sold me the version one kit instead of the version two. This is why I don't have the dip switches.. which also means I don't have the "new safety features" ugh ugh.

I was checking out my friends it clearly says version 2.0 on the front of the controller.. and it has the dip switches on the right side of the controller.

I like to run alky to come on full pressure much lower on stock based turbos, I have mine on my car start at 7psi and ramp up to 15psi and I have had great success with these setting, its much like tuning for race gas when done this way and much more consistent afrs....

Mine is set to start at 11 and reach full by 19 for the same reason. I have also worried about the response time. Have you ever pushed that button and seen how long it takes to feel your engine stumble at idle? It is scary long! I suppose that it would be quicker under full boost, but still!
