P.S Its hard to really "read" the setting on these 4-120 controllers? its just a gussing game, any way to really tell what min and max psi your at? I see your new controllers tell you EVERYTHING must be NICE! Ovbiously you can tell where your min is by when you start spraying, but its hard to tell where your max knob is.

PTP when you fedex man gettin this block?
with M5 i had it comming on at 4 psi, And like i was saying it would run real rich if i let it build from 35k up to 4k which is wheni reach full boost. But wot at 4k would not let the system build i guess and would run leaner. With M10 it seemed to do the same? But it wasent untill i messed with the controller is when it started to act right again. I have the M10 now, comming on at 10 psi and now i can wot at 4K, which does not allow it to "prime" and i get 11's afrs EVERY time. I like it ALOT better now lol. Im gonna keep the same set up, getting some injectors soon, and going to 20-22 psi, Hope it still acts the same.
are you running our HOM kit? I am betting you are not. The HOM kit takes into consideration both TPS and Boost for this very reason. I would be shocked if you answer YES to that questions. You must be at 2.66 volts on the TPS before it will inject and then its progressive from that point. Due to that you dont have rich moments down low.
now if you say "yes I have the HOM kit" I am going to bed for the night. LOL
LOL no just the standard trunk mount. Anotha quick question, i have two taps for nozzles, but only run single. Would i benifit more with two M5's instead of a single M10?

yes that controller was designed for 60-100 PSI turbo diesels. We put those on clearance last fall about 1/2 price for the reasons you state. It does however work. You can always use the software to lock the knobs in place, that way you get exactly where you need it.
The new ones are all digital (yea thats a first) so it does make it more simple. We always like to improve things.

the HOM kit ran that way on the 150 psi pump dual nozzles. It works fine. On the 250 psi systems we recommend a single nozzle.
You can however do it either way. No need necessarily to spend the money on a 2nd nozzle but its your call.
So all i need is a cable and software? I tried downloading it off your site, it wont work, i needed to download something else, did that, still wont open, i was hoping maybe you could send me the software on a disc? i could pay for postage?
If you want you can integrate the TPS into your system as well even with the 4-120,. Download the software from our website and put it in SRT HOM mode. That would keep your system consistent without having rich spots down low.
That would be AWSOME to be able to hook it to my lab top and be able to see where i stand on the min and max. Guess i can find a cable at a computer store?

no need to pay for shipping on a CD when its identical to whats on the site. You need winzip to open and you need .net framework 1.1 (you can download from MS)
Said i needed this net frame work, installed it, but keeps telling me i still need to download it??? Its being dumb, If i could get the software right off a disc, im sure it would work.
For those looking for a killer deal we found a box of vari-cool controllers (our original). These were mixed in with our other things so we did not know we had them until today. Regular price was $600 with the trunkmount tank, we are offering a sale of $375 until they are gone. For those interested just follow the link.
ok this has probably been asked a bunch, but theres 42 pages, i have twins, i hate reading, and i just dont have time to search around, so im just gonna ask....
1st...where exactly does this spray in at??
2nd...is it set to a temperature and spray automatically, or do you turn it on and off and it sprays consistantly until its off..or does it work like nitrous and you can spray anytime and for as long as you want
3rd...im looking at the different kits on your site, and im not sure what the difference is in the different kits.
4th...is it really worth it?

put the jet in your up pipe. Its a 1/8th NPT standard thread. Simple to install and remove.

most of them inject based on boost. on our progressive systems (controller systems) You set the MIN and MAX boost. as boost increases flow does as well. On our basic kits you set the turn on boost point. Once you hit that boost pressure its on, turns off when you drop below.

Most of what you need to know is in the descriptions of the kits. Obviously its too general of a question for me to answer other than to say we have kits that are progressive and non progressive as detailed above.

yes. more so than anything else on earth.
If you tell me your budget I can help narrow a kit down for you. progressive kits are best performance and we have them starting at $300.
Ask me any specific questions and I will be glad to help you.

budget isnt as important to me as getting what i need...i was looking at the standard underhood, the trunkmount, and the deluxe kit. is there a performance difference between having the tank under the hood (around heat) or in the trunk. im not sure if i'll need the progressive kits, but if i did, whats the difference in the install?

all of the kits are easy to install, progressive kits are probably a little easier. The trunkmount tank has no heat since its in the trunk, the pump, checkvalve and boost switch will not get hot, this will increase life of the system, only downside is having to route the hose through the firewall. Some of our progressive kits display your boost and show the pump dutycyle giving you an indication that the pump is turning on.
Let me know what other questions you have. The VC2 underhood is our top selling progressive kit.
