There are progressions that you need to follow, and if you do I promise you the rest falls into place. I've had guys tell me that this or that system makes more peak power, that's because that's the system they know the best. x amount of spark/fuel will make x amount of peak power, period. However the curve in getting there can be made more beneficial with the right system and tuner. I've tuned some FAST, Holley and MSD Blaster/BS3, I'll take the Accel over them any day. Imo the others just don't have the features/software to maximize the hp/tq curve.

P.S. you can turn most anything off on the Accel system if you like, even the O2. And they came up with the Pro key option because too many people were fooling with stuff they didn't need to fool with, that's also the reason for the Thruster. But guess what, you can still access all the GenIIV stuff thru that software, even though on the surface the Thruster seems "dumbed down".

we were turning off the O2 correction, but could still see it working. So the Gen VII is still the most advanced system they have, or is it now the Thruster? I'd never be able to talk him into the Gen VII again....... :faint:

When you turn it off, Control C, then flip the switch, the O2 area will grey out. It will still read, but won't influence the air/fuel ratio.

The Gen 7 is the big brother to the Thruster, but you can buy the Thruster, for about $400.00 less than the Gen 7, and still access most all the features of the Gen 7. They have added 4 new screens on the Gen 7 recently, all the more reason there isn't room for "self learning". Imo a decent tuner doesn't need that anyway.

It's a shame he wouldn't consider it. I know Greg Weld got caught up with a crappy tuner on Accel too, it's just a shame.

Hi,

This weekend we checked everything, tables, timing, airflow stacks, etc... . Everything was as prescribed. From the moment you start (cold or warm) and you throttle just for one moment, the exhaust pops hard...

We are trying now for about 3 and a half months and we are getting frustrating!
Now, we are looking for an EFI specialist from America that want to come over to help us out. So if someone knows someone high recommended that want to come over... Everything will be paid for like flight tickets till diners, etc...
It's better to invest in a real specialist...

Regards

Hi Mathi,

I would do it if it comes to that but pm me, I may have a couple guys in the U.K. that might be able to help you out. Much closer than here.

What is your timing set at in the area that the popping happens. under high vacuum/light load conditions, adding timing can give the engine more time to burn the fuel in the cylinder.

I have his cal, it has too much fuel and not enough spark in that area. Plus there are other issues in his fuel, spark and air/fuel tables.
However until I can boot up to a live XFI I can't even send him a revised cal. What a lousy way to have to do it.

I have one in stock if you want to send the cal down.
