[Supras] Standalones

[Rockey Fox]

version 5.03. I really need to get the tuner-pro software hooked up so I can start data logging to figure out what's causing it. It may be fuel availability related as I haven't yet upgraded to Walbro fuel pump or 550 injectors. That may be a consideration for my $600 government gift check.

  I have to second Rocky's Translator Pro recommendation. This unit offers a great deal of capabilities for a very reasonable price. The support offered on Full Throttle Tech is outstanding and the knowledgeable people will answer any questions you have. 
 Rocky; what T-Pro update are you running? I installed version 4.80 prior to doing any tuning. I have never had an issue with fuel cut, regardless of RPM and currently running 17.5 PSI. I remember reading something about issues with the 4.40 version that comes with the T-Pro.

 Mike

I'm not a paid supporter, in fact I'm only just now wading in on the MAFT-Pro in speed density mode and learning about engine control while coming up to speed. Currently after 2 weeks (OK I'm a little little slow) I'm working on out-of-the-box conservative tune on basically stock turbo setup I've started tweaking the boost control settings and trying to figure out why the heck am I hitting fuel cut at any less than 4000 rpm ~ 12 psi boost but above that no problems and maintaining ~ 11.9 AFR?? 
> I'm pretty sure it has something to do with an as yet understood setting but at 10 psi boost I had no issues and noticeably improved performance and engine stability immediately after basic install and setup. I don't know what the current cost of a stand alone system is but I paid ~ $700 for the speed density complete kit back in November (OK, I'm a little slow with upgrades). Personally I'm impressed so far after only 2 weeks of my rather slow implementation and further tuning of what appears to be a relatively inexpensive, highly tunable engine control (boost, AFR, & timing if I choose) option.
