Do the have the programming available for closed loop on the O2 and the knock sensor?

The knock sensor works 100% and we have it working with bigbore and turbo application as well. As for the O2, yes you can close loop it but you NEVER base your tuning on a sensor (close loop ) that can fail....o2 usefull for tuning and critical in the datalogger while tuning but that's it.

So after you have it tuned, do you turn it on to improve the drivability?

 

[vigorcs90]

The O2 that is.

 

[vigorcs90]

It was my thought to allow the O2 to make changes +/- a few % from the baseline program. Not so?

Close loop are majorly for fuel economy and EPA....wich a sled doesn't qualify for . I wouldn't suggest to use this strategy, make sure to meet in every fuel cell in the fuel table your air/fuel target(so easy with the mixture map) and leave it alone once spot on.

Is there a way to integrate the knock sensor configuration into an existing map that doesn't have it setup yet?

Yes it is possible. PM sent.

Is there an advantage to an EBC that is controlled by the TPS? Like the boondocker unit? Boost is linear with the throttle 1 to 1. Would it make it simpler to tune? Build less heat in the midrange? If so, can Vipec control a EBC in this manner? Which one would be better?

so I keep reading how push spent the month of march 2013 dialing in the vipec.. do you offer this most recent tune for the m8

 

[zrtcatman]

What a cop out! Who would want their product to be mis represented by a not so good company who had a not so good turbo design and the Vipec just uncovered all the design flaws......I'm sure glad I just stick with the kits that are proven and not the ones that try and reinvent the wheel.

You just hit the nail on the head.Vi-pec powersport were stuck with trying to make the push turbo kit (many issues) work with their Vi-pec standalone.Unfortunately,even the best tuner out there cant do miracles with a turbo kit that doesn,t perform like they were told.

Huh, mine seems to work fine. Took 3 trips with it last year. Buy it from a dealer/tuner that knows what's going on and you'll be fine.

Who has hit the steep/deep with Vipec?

Who has hit the steep/deep with Vipec?

Been hitting it since December 2011 with a turbo'd RMK on a variety of different boost and injector combinations..........

I have 500 miles now on vipec cat and so far very impressed. Sled ran OK first day out got a few tweaks to the map now been running great for 400 miles. I do hope to get det sensor and ebc working soon.

Both EBC and DET have been programmed....just depend on who's kit you are running. It is the kit builder task to program those options but the knock sensor fonction we have done it for all of them(dealers).

tuning a cutler 950 turbo with vipec now. super sweet set up!

Started the map from a na base map and got her way close in about 1.5 hr. just had a sensor fail or i could of got her done. Be back on hill tommorow.

Stop setting on the fence guys these things are awesome.

 

[w2bridin]

We had the det sensor working but its too sensitive.

Tuning aerocharger cat turbo today. Should be fun!

Our det stuff has worked. If it is a stock motor. If it is a big bore another kind of mod You will have to adjust it a bit.
