Any people has had good results using Cam-Con combined with Supercharger/Turbo? on xB or xA?
Improved performance? More power? Etc?

More power? Etc? Simplyscion 11-03-2005, 07:35 PM Mine didnt work for sh!t on my turbo xB. It would only work for a lil while until eventually the long term fuel trim would reject the settings and then not really know what to do when it sees boost. JoeDarkness 11-04-2005, 02:11 AM Uhhg :ponder: Do you think that Apexi SAFC II is better? Simplyscion 11-04-2005, 09:26 AM nope...these piggybacks only seem to work well with N/A applications. Xbilly 11-04-2005, 03:18 PM TurboXS Dtec fc has a boost option now i think, says it works well with closed loop systems. Im trying to get a review from matchbox about his TurboXS set up, i haven't PMed him about it but he hasn't answered if the forums, I dont want to pester him but I'm curious as hell. I want to go with turboXS, but not if it deosn't work well. JoeDarkness 11-06-2005, 12:54 PM nope...these piggybacks only seem to work well with N/A applications. So, CAMCON is best than SAFC? UncivilizedRacer 11-06-2005, 06:35 PM The Dtec unit works GREAT on my Turbo SRT-4. Not installed yet on my box since the thing is still on blocks having everything intalled. Will have info on it within like 2 months when everything is completed though! Xbilly 11-06-2005, 08:08 PM Can't wait to hear about it, but I hope to have it set up in just a few weeks. Wraith 11-06-2005, 08:15 PM The problem isnt in your piggy backs its your factory fuzzy logic ecu ... The only way to really make power is to do a complete ecu swap and then hook up the piggy ecu... The factory ecu trys to achieve fuel and timing maps closest to the factory mapping. Once you guys tune on the dyno ... Shut down the car and let it cool and then re-dyno you'll see that you've lost most or if not all of the power you guys just gain the dyno before... Wraith 11-06-2005, 08:16 PM can someone post their supercharged dyno's and in the end of the month we can compare it to a fuzzy logic vs echo non-fuzzy logic ecu ...

JoeDarkness 11-07-2005, 01:06 PM My cam-con works fine, but I only use the suggested configuration settings posted in PE website. I dont see any difference in performance. Only difference is that i have now a digital tach jeje.

Do you use anything now, or just the mechanical (rail, pump, injectors)? JoeDarkness 11-08-2005, 01:29 AM I think if its good idea or not change the stock injectors... dgHotLava 11-08-2005, 01:30 AM my car is really tuned well with the mechanical stuff. pump, rail, injectors, regulator.... i've been going through different systems to find the best application. nothing impresses me yet. Wraith 11-08-2005, 03:45 AM my car is really tuned well with the mechanical stuff. pump, rail, injectors, regulator.... i've been going through different systems to find the best application. nothing impresses me yet. Hey bro did you convert to a return type system on your fuel ??? JoeDarkness 11-08-2005, 01:42 PM my car is really tuned well with the mechanical stuff. pump, rail, injectors, regulator.... i've been going through different systems to find the best application. nothing impresses me yet. What type of regulator do you use? dgHotLava 11-08-2005, 02:10 PM my car is really tuned well with the mechanical stuff. pump, rail, injectors, regulator.... i've been going through different systems to find the best application. nothing impresses me yet. Hey bro did you convert to a return type system on your fuel ??? no. it is still a single line. i've been tempted to go return style, but the folks i know who did it have had problems. my set up has yet to lean out on me so i'm not in a rush to do it.

Now how did you install a regulator with a non-return system ??? Because the regulator and fuel pump are located in the fuel tank... dgHotLava 11-08-2005, 11:25 PM correct. the regulator and pump are in the tank. it is not a regulator like you are used to. matchbox 11-09-2005, 04:30 AM The turbo DTEC-FC work like its suppose to. The only problem you will run into is the close loop part of our fuel system. I am running 320cc injectors. I have been throwing codes at 3500 saying its to rich. But I am only at 3500 for a split second. If anybody is going to run one of these I would highly recomend the wideband too. I have this along with a pressure sensor. Which I control my fuel off of. Instead of the RPMs wich would be worthless with a FI engine. moderngti 01-14-2007, 03:41 PM In the Miata world... with the later VVT engines and superchargers... they found that on higher-stressed setups (8+psi meaning more than the base kit... and with an open / efficient intake as well as header / cat-back, etc) that the OEM VVT settings are optimized for N/A operation... Retarding the intake cam would allow it to reduce overlap (boost-blow-through) as well as open sooner to fill the cyls... and thus provide less blower-to-throttlebody "backpressure" and as a result, allowed the blower to rob less from the engine as it could spin easier with the now reduced "forepressure" Worth considering on thesee 1nz-fe's... as it should work the same way. These gains grew the more the SC'er was spun... so the more modified your SC'er setup it... the more this would help... The same was not found on turbo cars. |
