Datalogging with e-85. Tuning with boost, fuel reference

[MidnightGT]

Hey guys,

I currently have a VMP stage 2 on my 2015 GT.
I have a Sai Li fuel system and ID1000's on the way. Going to drop to a 75mm pulley and e-85. When talking to VMP, they said I need to purchase something to datalog with boost and fuel pressure reference I believe, something like VCDS but I can't find it in my searches. I was driving when talking to them and couldn't write down what they were telling me and didn't have an opportunity to speak with them again. Instead of waiting till Monday, I'm seeing if y'all can help me so I can get everything ordered, so I can get info sent to them asap.

That's a new one. Boost gauges are nice so you see what it's actually making but actually logging it. Surprised they said it's necessary. If your on the dyno usually they can log boost just teeing into a boost/vacuum source.

Hopefully I misunderstood what they were asking, because I cannot find information on it anywhere. I also don't know exactly what I'm looking for though. If I don't get the info this weekend, I'll just ask again Monday

If you add the boost box,I think it also allows you add another analog reading which you can hook up to read fuel pressure.You will them be able to log boost and fuel pressure .
I thought of doing this since its hard to keep an eye on the rpm and all my other "worry" gauges at WOT.
Lund did not really think it was necessary but said logging boost may be helpful if you were concerned for example about belt slip .

Thanks man! I see that Lund does make a boost box. Any other options besides them that you may know of? I have and X4 and it seems their box is a plug and play for the nguage.
I wonder why VMP is concerned about this were others aren't so much? Regardless, I fully trust VMP and will use it if necessary especially since it's an extra monitoring parameter and will give me peace of mind.

Sorry man.
I assumed you had an Ngauge.

No problem. I may just have to call Monday. Btw, I love the progressive springs I purchased from you.
