SCT question

[srtras]

i have the SCT tune from AGP and only have a wideband to read air/fuel. i do not have a datalogger they also highly recommend having. right now i am running 18psi, would it be safe to turn up boost to 22-24 psi without a datalogger?

idk how safe it is but ive been doin it for a couple months on the flash,but then again I dont DD my car....its still running tho lol

I wouldn't push it without a scangauge or means to watch Knock. Especially if you are running strictly pump gas. A/F can be in an acceptable range while still seeing KR.

on 18 psi yes i have been using only 91 oct. but if i put in race gas and turned up the boost to 22-24 would i still need to worry about knock?

btw how much is a scan gauge?

Generally from 23psi and above, Kevin adds additional timing in his maps for race fuel. The most we generally suggest on pump gas is 20-21psi.

There are a number of datalogging devices available out there. Many of our customers use the Aeroforce scan gauges, although I do not believe they allow you to actually save logs. Air/fuel and knock/timing retard are the most important things you want to keep an eye on.

great thanks!

Jon you mention generally from 23psi and up timing is added for race gas. is there a way for me to find out if my map has that?

[Jon@AGP]

Kevin does that with all of our maps, so I am pretty sure yours would be like that as well.

great, thanks again!
