Wonder if HKS has a product for boost control which is adjustable according to the gear position(not by G-force sensing method). Otherwise, in normal circumstance, boost does vary between gears due to different gearing ratio in different gears.But that is another matter.Originally posted by Eevolution3@Sep 13 2004, 01:07 PM
However, it seems that they are running different boost on different gears especially on the first three gears for better traction off the line...
Interesting. There are only two maps on Haltech which I can switch in between with a switch. Wish I could have a third map so that I will have a different boost from third gear onwards. Perhaps the E11 model has more. For RM5000 on the e6x, you can have so many things to play with on one single ecu. I am not selling Haltech ecus, by the way.:DOriginally posted by Eevolution3@Sep 13 2004, 04:57 PM
If I may recall, yes, through an interface using a thumb switch specific boost can be selected through each gear.. still a manual mode though..
But if the setup is external gate for boost control, provided feedback is given back to the ecu to control boost, same amount of boost is achievable in each gear...but then again the only time gear dependent boost selection is needed is mostly on FWD drag cars other than of course the G Force car.. there were running like 1.2 on 1st, 1.5 on 2nd and 2.2 on 3rd and so on...

The HKS EVC Pro does provide adjustment according to rpm, throttle, and speed. But not gear specific. However it can be applied to minimize wheelspin during launching or lower gears.
Eevolution, my prostart is triggered by only a switch that is connected to the front panel of the V Pro, no external devices. By the optional selectable module, I suppose you mean the mixture control device that HKS has in it's catalogue?
i also went there that nite and support that wira vr4..... haha....Originally posted by pendixs@Sep 9 2004, 03:59 PM
wira4,
that's not ma car..that's ma mech car..at the Dragbattle website it quoted that Wira as J (could be jump start)..dunno or the sensor could not take the time.. :D
wat ever happen that nite we all happy coz we're beaten by an Evo 6 (so damn fast this car)..we managed to gun down Red Sun Gtr..Singapore Evo 7..these car's are big boys even no one ever care about us that nite...hhihih..thats okay..
we've show our capability..see ya next round.. :D

Mr Nismo. there is a external device ( cubed shaped with a rotating dial with numbers on it , yes the mixture device). I know cause I had a V Pro tuned by Koyama from Jun. Was told by Koyama that each number on the dial corresponds to a certain launch rpm. Yes there is a switch to kick the Pro Start but also this module that allows selectable launch rpm..check with Lester la..maybe I'm wrong cause it says mixture but really is for the launch control
Hahaha..yea I know you're not a Haltech dealer.. I'm no HKS nor Autronic dealer as well but like yourself do own an ecu like that.. THe SM2 model of the Autronic supports different boost in different gear via a switch that is located in the shifter mechanism...I have never seen one but was told by my tuner in Australia that there;s one like that..will let u know as soon as I found out more.. :lol:
So, when we hit 9 seconds 1/4m timeslips in Sepang, we should be able to go deep into 8 sec 1/4m on Australia drag strips if the drive train does not break and engine does not bog down. The same goes for all classes and speeds achieved thus far at Sepang.:DOriginally posted by seven@Sep 14 2004, 11:07 AM
Hi Guys,
We must also not forget that these timings are not inclusive of the tarmac at Sepang and other drag strips. Wat I understand and learn from a regular guy that has been hitting low 9's to high 8's in his Silvia in Australia, is that their drag strip is solely used for drag racing, and before any drag events, a fine spray of "sticky" substance will be distributed onto the tarmac. That's why you see a huge lorry with a canister going thru the strip first. And if you place you hands on the tarmac after that, you'd have difficultly pulling back. That's when you'll see the rwd cars hitting faster timings then the 4wd's. And that's where all the hoosier and m/t tires can be fully utilised. That's when you'll start seeing lots of wheel stands, and wheelie bars.
