Default CamCon with supercharged xB

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

Improved performance? More power? Etc?

Mine didnt work for **** 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.

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.

So, CAMCON is best than SAFC?

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!

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...

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)?

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.
