bads2k Posted June 25, 2012 Report Share Posted June 25, 2012 testing out new boost controller on first pass. not bad considering no data from this controller yet. very promising considering what the logs looked like. once i get boost where it needs to be in first and 2nd short track will drop a lot. i let off twice on this pass in first and 2nd gear to calm it down.

DaddyBuiltRacing Posted June 25, 2012 Report Share Posted June 25, 2012 9.91@152...I belive its in the video title lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bads2k Posted June 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2012 yeah 9.91@152...119mph to the 1/8. that pass was a 4.42 330'. i've been 4.2 before so i got the controller setup where it should be now so should be ready next time out. really hoping to go 4.0-4.1 330' and 6.2x 1/8 we will see.

Nice- MY FWD junk was going 7.0 in the 1/8th, and 10.4@151. That was on 29psi! Makes me want to try FWD again....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EGOKILLER Posted June 26, 2012 Report Share Posted June 26, 2012 Congrats brother, i'm glad to see your getting the bugs worked out. I know it's been a long road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ef8sirJunkie Posted June 26, 2012 Report Share Posted June 26, 2012 Paul, i though you have had the AMS boost controller in the past or have you upgraded to something else? See you got it dialed in Congrats! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bads2k Posted June 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2012 Had the ams...don't get me wrong I liked it but wasn't the most user friendly to setup quicky between passes. I'm on the msd 7562 which is basically the same direction the ams is with co2 it's just laptop controlled and also datalogger. It's time based Also like the ams...oh and a lot cheaper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bads2k Posted June 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2012 Yeah ams1000. It's easier to graph what boost and where exactly you want it on the msd since it's on the laptop instead of a 3" screen that's all push button. Drag and click. Connect the dots pretty much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With these mac valves and their algebraic formula for inductive reactance they lag until then end of the rpm. I notice people are running the co2 to get them to a desired target, Hondata wrote software to hold the waste gate shut with a solenoid until you reach a target psi then it would creep to the final few psi. Hence the quick spool feature on Josh's integra. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbracing81 Posted June 26, 2012 Report Share Posted June 26, 2012 Just out of curiosity, is this the same car that lost the balancer during 9000 RPM burnout about 5 or 6 years ago? Also, was this car built by Slow Motion? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hence the quick spool feature on Josh's integra. using co2 is just replacing the manifold pressure. except the pressure is always being applied to the solenoids not having to wait for manifold pressure to build up. when you set the boost controller to run 30psi weither it be at a certain gear/time/rpm it's always there. spool time is faster, holds boost more steady than manifold pressure, and you can run the lowest spring pressure you can and still run pretty much as much boost as you want. running a small spring on the wg off manifold pressure and you won't see as much max boost so you would have to run a higher wg spring then you run into issues controlling traction off the launch and in lower gears. after running co2 and getting it dialed in you won't want to change back.

Ef8sirJunkie Posted June 27, 2012 Report Share Posted June 27, 2012 I understand and agree and also learned something. But you do know the 4 port mac solenoids can handle 4-5x the spring rate vs the 3-4x the normal 3 port solenoid (the one aem, hondata, greddy etc all sell). This allows you to run a small spring also. I wouldnt mind looking more into the co2 kits etc. there isnt much info on that msd kit you are running.

bads2k Posted June 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2012 yeah the 4 ports are a lot better but the boost is there quicker and holds steadier with co2. no need to wait for manifold pressure. http://www.msdignition.com/Products/RPM/Timing_Controls/RPM_Controls/7562_-_Programmable_Launch_Boost_Controller.aspx go down toward the bottom and you can download the pro data software. instructions,wiring,editor is all on it under help menu. Really the only thing that takes a bit settin up are the PID's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
