ClimberDHexMods Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 I imagine you already said it, but what FMIC did you get? (and specs on core size and pipe diameter if not readily available Please) How much added delay in throttle response? Half second? Quarter second? One second? Thank you.

LittleBlueGT Posted March 4, 2010 Author Share Posted March 4, 2010 I imagine you already said it, but what FMIC did you get? (and specs on core size and pipe diameter if not readily available Please) How much added delay in throttle response? Half second? Quarter second? One second? Thank you. I got the itsme racerX FMIC. Take a look and you will find all the info you ever need on it. It didn't add nearly close to 1/2 a second, that would feel like an eternity! I would estimate the throttle response with TMIC was .1 of a second, and now it is .2. Full tune of 68HTA, KSTech 73 MAF, Racer X FMIC and ID1000s................by the DataLog Mafia!!!

yamie700 Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 Do you know how many MAF g/s you picked up just from going FMIC, before you added timing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruby Red Rocket Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 Little Blue,Would better fuel affect the throttle response with the FMIC or is it just all that extra air that has to be pushed through? Also, what would you think of ceramic coating the main tubes of the FMIC under the hood or the exhaust housing of the 68HTA (for that matter)? Might a good coating speed up all that hot air, increase throttle response? RRR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleBlueGT Posted March 5, 2010 Author Share Posted March 5, 2010 Do you know how many MAF g/s you picked up just from going FMIC, before you added timing? I never specifically compared exact logs (same temp, rpm mrp etc...) but I don't think I gained any. Why would I unless the TMIC was a restriction compared to the FMIC (which is a smaller FMIC)?

RRR That is how it goes with a FMIC, the things you recommend are not a bad idea, but will not really affect throttle response.

Ruby Red Rocket Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 LBGT -- If moving more air in a FMIC diminishes throttle response, what would that mean for even larger FMICs like the AVO? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleBlueGT Posted March 5, 2010 Author Share Posted March 5, 2010 LBGT -- If moving more air in a FMIC diminishes throttle response, what would that mean for even larger FMICs like the AVO? Even worse throttle response and boost recovery. I am not saying it is bad, it isn't. It is just worse then then a TMIC.

Deaks2 Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 What BOV are you running? I plan on running my GFB 50/50 in full recirculate mode, do I need the softer (or harder...) spring? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jfg22557 Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 ^+1 However I'm planning on running my GFB in 50/50. Will the spring that comes already in the unit suffice? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruby Red Rocket Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 I hear ya, it ain't bad, just could be a bit better (snappier response to throttle input). And since yours is the path I could well be following, my hope is to hear you singing your upgrade's praises! So, when you sense something a bit amiss (that I'm sure I'd sense as well), I keep asking questions... Such as this one: What about using a BOV set at full recycle?

LittleBlueGT Posted March 6, 2010 Author Share Posted March 6, 2010 I have GFB set at full recirc. FWIW I had to use two rubber gaskets to get it to pass a pressure test.

Legend Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 last one: http://i248.photobucket.com/albums/gg194/littlebluegt/RRscreenshots4.jpg Requested Torque: look at last line, that is a soft rev-limiter. LBGT thanks again for sharing your tables on the first couple pages of the thread. Great info! I finally(!) got around to implementing some of your knock control table suggestions and am also adding the soft rev-limiter. With regards to the requested torque (accelerator pedal) final row, is that row value (7250rpms in your table) equal to your redline (rev limit fuel cut "enable on")? Or is it slightly less than your redline? My '05 LGT My '07 Supercharged Shelby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LittleBlueGT Posted March 23, 2010 Author Share Posted March 23, 2010 Since installing the FMIC, have you noticed a rich dip after going WOT / near peak boost? Yes, but keep in mind that I use the OEM O2 in the DP, so about 11.15:1 is as rich as I see. I scaled my MAF by putting in some Torco and running it at 11.5:1. So how rich does it go? IDK, but it doesn't seem to affect anything. Full tune of 68HTA, KSTech 73 MAF, Racer X FMIC and ID1000s................by the DataLog Mafia!!!

I have only used it the once, but I will take it with me on my next road course day, if any knock shows up in LV some is going in.
