Saved,

Sent you a PM also, but thought I woudl post here as well...

Have a Nytro MTX is Nat. Asp. am considering Power COmmander, Race BIke and others...

want to get fuel dialed in, and thereby improve performance...

What can be done and what is the best way?
Can yoru box work for this? will I need other stuff?
What kind of performance shoudl be expected?


thanks..
 
Junior,

How can I tell if my BD box is upgradeable to the synergy conrol programming..

Its from a 2006 Polaris 900 RMK?

Thanks

MH,

I believe if you have the newer box with the checkerboard pattern on it, that the reprogram for the synergy system is no big deal.
I had my box for the 08' 700 reprogramed for my 06' 900, for a minimal charge!! Although they kinda laughed at me for going back to the old tractor!!
Oh well!!
I did however trade my 08' 700 for another 06' 900 with boondocker system (not synergy), and we had to pay full new box price for the upgrade. I think however that his original box had a problem. His handle is mtnclimber19 he should be able to tell you what the circumstances were.

Thanx

I just bought a brand new NOS capable box for a M1000. There appears to be no difference between Advanced Mode and Regular Mode. Is that correct, or did I miss something?

Really like the push button capture and led light, great upgrade.

Need a way to hook A/F guage into box and have everything adjust automatically..

Thanks.

Yeah, the BD box will definitely give you the ability to dial in fuel. I’m not sure what kind of gains you might see with a box on an all stock sled, but the gains would be substantial along with, upgraded exhaust or intake.

If your BD box has, white 10 pin connectors it is definitely upgradeable to synergy, if it has the yellowish 12 pin connectors it may or may not be upgradable. If it has the 12 pin connectors give me a call or pm me, and we’ll figure it out.

In advanced mode you will have the ability to change the low, mid, hi, transition points according to duty cycle, or TPS. Other than that you should be able to access everything else with advanced mode off.

Thanks again for all the questions.
 
Junior,
when would you want to use the exhaust-valve based fueling vs. TPS signal fueling? I ride 6-9K. TPS based fueling will not compensate for variations in exhaust valve timing correct? So when riding higher/varying altitude is the exhaust-valve based fueling the best option?
Thanks

The ECU will change the exhaust valve timing somewhere around 8,000 ft., so the most consistent tune for your altitude (6,000-9,000 ft.) would probably be with the exhaust valve option. At altitudes of 9,000 plus, a lot of guys opt. to use the TPS feature to keep the lo, mid, hi, transitions consistent.

Thanks for the question.
 
Did you ever look into the price of the exhaust valve wire and button for me?
Sorry for the delay.
Push button $26.00
LED $13.00
Push button, LED combo $37.00
The TPS/Exv wire comes with the BD box if you didn’t get one we’ll send you one for free.

Thanks
 
SavedbyGrace,
I have also had problems tuning out mid range bog on m7 with jaws twins, as I'm sure many have. Running similar #'s to Aueland and after reading your post what I take from that is to eliminate #'s or have very little in load ranges that aren't applied eg. 3000 md&hi, 5000 hi, 6700 lo, 7800 lo, 8100 lo&md. My question is in the instructions it stats that the rpm ranges overlap, so at 4000 rpm for example is the number overlap 3000 hi to 5000 lo? Also wondering if fuel is only tuned for load, for example making long pull and turning out as engine decellerates do you need #s in md setting to keep from burning down. I have been all over the place with numbers in mid range to try to tune this bog out, maybe just wrong spots. Problem seems to be heat related as it gets more frequent the warmer sled gets. Hope you can make sense of some of this.
Running 3000-6000ft.

Thanks
 
Boondocker box

I am looking at buying 05 m-7 with cuttler 1000 it has older boondocker box but rpm range only goes to 7800 & this motor runs at 8100 will this box add enough fuel at 7800 range to work when motor is spinning at 8100? how much to get box updated with 8100 rpm range added & would this change fuel mapping? thanks. P.S. what is no for tech at Boondocker canada.

Yeah…you’re getting the idea. This question is a good one, I get asked it a lot.

"My question is in the instructions it stats that the rpm ranges overlap, so at 4000 rpm for example is the number overlap 3000 hi to 5000 lo?"

The answer is no, the lo, mid, hi have nothing to do with how the rpm ranges blend (overlap). The lo, mid, hi is engine load, the control box determines this engine load according to injector load (duty cycle) or throttle position (TPS). So you basically have two reference points to consider when adjusting fuel in a certain area, one is rpm range, two is load range. Using your example, if 4000 rpm is the target, which happens to land directly in the middle of 3000 and 5000, the appropriate rpm adjustment point would be either 3000, 5000, or a little of both. The question now becomes, where to make the adjustment in 3000 and 5000, in lo, mid, or hi? 4000 rpm is right there at early clutch engagement, low to mid engine load or throttle position, probably more low at 3000 and more mid at 5000, this is where you would most likely want to make your adjustment.

The real trick, is knowing rather you are in low, mid, or hi at any given time. The BD box has a couple of features that can help with this, one is the stats screen can display the current rpm, and load range, another is an optional mid light, which is a small, but very visible light that can be mounted on the dash or handle bars. This light can be set to light up whenever the box is in the mid load range, allowing the rider to know which range he’s in a any given time.

I hope this helps, if this is at all confusing to anyone please let me know and I will do my best to clarify.

Adjusting numbers at 7800 on that box will affect everything from 7800 rpm and up.

Depending on how old the BD box is we may be able to reprogram it with some different rpm ranges, if you were to feel like different rpm ranges would be beneficial. This would affect the tuning already done with the old program, but you could use those old numbers as a good starting point with the new program.

The price to have a BD box reprogrammed is $62.50.

The ECU will change the exhaust valve timing somewhere around 8,000 ft., so the most consistent tune for your altitude (6,000-9,000 ft.) would probably be with the exhaust valve option. At altitudes of 9,000 plus, a lot of guys opt. to use the TPS feature to keep the lo, mid, hi, transitions consistent.

Thanks for the question.

Junior...I was reading in the 08 Arctic Cat service manual for the 1000cc the APV valve will go mid-open @ 6300rpm and then full-open @6500 rpm for both low and high altitude.....
The 800cc has a range from mid-open 6000-6500 low/high altitude and then full-open 78-8100 low/high altitude....So it appears that arctic cat only varies the APV opening with altitude on the 800 and not the 1000cc..... I ride an 08 M1000 and was going to try exhaust valve based fueling, but if the the opening RPM on the 1000cc is unchanged with altitude should I run it in TPS mode?
Thanks
 
rmk 900 box to 06 rmk 700??

junior.

first want to say thank you for taking the time to answer all the questions..shows GREAT customer support..:beer;:beer;

I have a chance to get a STEAL on a control box for a 2005 rmk 900 but i want to install it on my wifes 2006 rmk 700..:o

is this possible for a direct swap..can it be reprogrammed (i dont have it so i cant tell if the pins are yellow or white):eek:

her sled is all stock minus a CPI pipe/can..just looking to tune for a few extra HP and add NOS later :D:D
 
I just bought a 2006 M7 EFI with a RTK 13:1 head and a Boondocker EFI controller. Does anyone have any baseline settings? Do you usually have to change the settings with the head change? I've never used an EFI contoller before. Do you have to change the settings for different elevations or once you have it set does the computer automatically adjust it like it does stock? I basically have all the numbers set to zero now...so I have to start at square one and I don't have a clue what I'm doing. I am at 1400' now but I will be also riding at 8000-10000 in the future.

If the APV on the 1000 stays consistent regardless of altitude, than you should have no problem adjusting fuel with the rpm ranges. Than the better option may be to run lo, mid, hi, off TPS.

Good info…thank you…

Yes this box should work on your 06 700, but it will not work on a Dragon.

I’m not sure what kind of adjustment you’ll need to make for you head.

Once you have it tuned for you 1,400 ft. the ECU should take care of minor altitude changes, but you will most likely want a different map when riding at your 8,000-10,000 ft.

Thanks again for all the questions guys.
Junior
