Hello all, i have been working on a SBC with a twin turbo set-up for 14psi, i currently have a Holley stealth with 950 pro injection set-up with narrow band 02, this is the set-up i was running when naturally aspirated worked great. I added turbos 55lbs injectors and 2 bar map, now i have been unable to get the engine running right, running real rich smoking etc... I have been told a wide band 02 is required for tuning any forced induction engine. Holley make a wide band add on kit, however i have also been told that Accell DFI genVII is a better set-up.
Has anyone run the Holley 950 with boost? is that the right way to go or convert to DFI?
I have converted a few Holley system to FAST XFI. For your need, I would suggest a FAST or DFI, they are both excellent. I am familar and sell FAST, so FAST is what I use. Also, the FAST will be a little cheaper then a XFI.
I would highly recommend a wideband for any forced induction system. I do not recommend the Accel DFI for any beginner tuner, it's a bit tricky to tune in my opinion.
The suggestions are correct, a WBO2 is a very useful tool in tuning any EFI application, especially with a boost. I still recommend reading the plugs (all of them), and EGT's if available.
Put a WBO2 on it and plug away. I've heard the "Cmdr950 needs to be upgraded" story too many times. It has more than enough control. You don't need a Gen7 or FAST.
I've gone 7.60's @ 180mph with that same box and 28lbs of boost. I've turned it down and it's consistent enough to go 8.51 back to back to back to back. Many tuners aren't familiar with it and usually steer away from it as the FAST and Gen7 are more popular and in some applications do offer advantages but, it's no reason to upgrade in your specific case.
I'm running a supercharged SBC and a C950 with wide band O2. It works great and wouldn't think of running with narrow band. The WB will give you much better control.
