  1. I don't know how Subaru does their pulses, but all the injector is doing is turning on for x milliseconds, shutting off for x milliseconds. The tuning threads may have the injector duty cycle maps.

     

    I don't know if anyone has done this, but the basic logic would be to use the PWM functions to create say a 25%, 50%, 75%, 100% duty cycle. You would use the low voltage of the Arduino (5V on most common boards) to close a relay connected in between a 12V source and the injector +12V pin.

     

    As far as the code goes, you would just need to look up the PWM functions in the http://www.arduino.cc site.

     

    The duty cycles could be something like this:

     

    For simplicity sake, you wouldn't need to really use the PWM, just generate a digital high signal on one of the digital out pins to close the circuit and turn the relay on.

     

    25%: on one second, off 3 seconds

    50%: on two seconds, off two seconds

    75%: on three seconds, off one second

    100%: continuous on

     

    If you want to get fancy, you can use 4 momentary switches/buttons as inputs to trigger each of the four above duty cycles. If none are pressed, no flow.

     

    I think I'll do this project this summer when I pull my injectors out to do a bench test and cleaning. I figure at 140k miles it should probably be done with some of the good stuff.

     

    And I happen to have an IRTB from a Honda CBR in my basement. Maybe I can grab an injector off of it and have some fun with the relay board I have.

  2. sitting on my porch having my before noon sip. and up comes the fedex man handing me a single envelop with the incorrect address on it, turned and said see ya later. calmly I say, this should be almost 26lbs. long pause and I have my intercooler right afterwards.

     

    lesson learned that using fedex in OK sucks. had three deliveries come in questionable order this past week alone.

     

    despite box being scuffed and tossed a bit the part is fantastic. thank you Matt and your team! this thing makes the original part look anemic. will be installed in a few days

    If you have Twitter, it is the fastest way to get this issue resolved. @fedexhelp worked for me.
