Shawn I used a MegaSquirt to run the secondary injectors on my turbo Hayabusa.

LOL...nice setup Jason, that's too much power on 2 wheels for me, my our brave man:hail: I had the Stinger PIMP, simple and I loved the Tuner Studio software and Megalog viewer. Best bang for the buck.

Hey, random question. What is the 1.5" hole saw used for? I'm getting my things together this weekend for my install next weekend :)

Our startup tunes are perfect with Lund.. Glad your install went well.

I've been following the 3.2L KB build, very nice setup. As far as the calibration for startup for Obsol3te I can't say it perfect. Of course I'm sure in the end Lund will have it purring like a kitten. Below is the quote form startup video and running the car for the logs for Lund.


Haha, well it was running fine after the fact. I let it warm up to operating temp and started my first log.
Kind of scared to do my second! Driving the thing around...
Initial Start-up Video
Shes running AWFUL right now, ill defintely have more up when Jon smooths out the tune.
I was scared at first to even hold the RPM for the datalog, 1500-2500-3500.

That was more from install error than anything. In the directions you have to snip a wire off your MAF harness and connect another to it.
Well, lets say I didn't realize it was a 6 pin connector, and the #2 pin was really #3.
After I resolved the issue(i was getting ZERO maf freq in my logs) the car smoothed out(watch the base start-up video of me circling the car in my post)

Edit:
This was the base tune after i fixed my install error
[ame]

Now, im not going to say it was perfect. It still needed help, the throttle response was pretty awful and didn't get cleared up until the 4th? revision. But I feel pretty confident about the tune and how great the car runs now.

Obsol3te great build and Dyno numbers on that beast, those pesky MAF wires needs to be right for sure. Not trying to say Lund or your tune is not good and that your car after data logging and going back and forth with Lund isn't perfect. I went with Whipple's calibration becuase it is done when you get it, it's like it came from the factory like that. I didn't want to go back and forth with logs to have it dialed in, I mean if you could have had it perfect in shot wouldn't you want that?

I don't know if i'd firmly believe that the tune was perfect with one "off the shelf" tune.
I know whipple is supposed to have some amazing calibration with their systems, but i'll always believe no two cars are the same and require extra attention. I guess i'd rather have piece of mind that everything is exactly in line as it should be by sending them datalogs to review my information. I'm not saying your wrong or whipple isnt good, its just my own personal beliefs.
I just wanted to let ya know the whole rough start was user error, not actually on Lund or Kenne Bell

Edit: Also, WHERE THE HELLS YOUR VIDEO!?
:) Everyone's curious man

Yup I come from the push rod Fox mtor and spent some time self tuning. The PR tuning bible says no two cars/motors are alike and can run the same calibration and that I believe, but I don't think that to be the case on today's 5.0. For that era with the knowledge, ability and difference in parts that most fox setups had custom tuning was needed for sure. The fact that today's supercharged 5.0 rarely have more than addition of headers the motors are essentially all the same and have the same fuel requirements with a known power adder like say Whipple. The same way Ford makes one calibration to work on every motor, Whipple can make one calibration for every motor with the known variables. Anyways not trying to argue just discuss and debate:cheers:

OEM specifications are incredibly stringent and have less than 1% variance. There are far more than two cars alike. Motors from the 70's, 80's had some variance but now, very very little. Therefore 1 cal works for all. But in reality we have over 100 calibrations as it depends on which sensor you have, what model, etc. but the base portion of cal is the same.

We also have far more learning capacity built in, part of the unique software and calibration process so we can adapt to more changes then any other standard cal. One of the variances is cam alignment, there having trouble holding the cams in commanded positions. We adapt and correct them. Add all the things up and you can see we can make more power out of the box on pump gas then any other complete kit. Maximizing cam position, timing per cylinder, fuel per cylinder, compression, airflow, etc
