It is his logic. Unfortunately for him, just showing up doesn't guarantee a 1st place trophy like in grade school. If he buys a new telescope tracking device and it comes with a letter that says there's sand in the mechanism and it shouldn't be actuated until the debris is cleaned out... It is really Amazon's fault when he ruins it without cleaning out the sand?He thinks that a stock ECM has someway of knowing how much horsepower an engine makes and then leans it out when too much power is made. That's flat out not true. (and it disgusts me that he convinced a court of law that a business should lose $30K over it)WOT fueling is the easiest thing the ECM does. It opens the injectors for "X" amount of milliseconds ever other crank revolution. That's it. That's all the magic.Lets say you've maxxxed out 30# injectors and you're flowing enough fuel to make 400HP at WOT. (nice even numbers) If you do nothing else but put 60# injectors in thier place you will now flow exactly twice the fuel and have enough to support 800HP. *caveat* yes, idle and cruse will be pig rich, yes the fuel pump might not keep up, yes, engines aren't 100% efficient, etc.....Keep reading and asking questions Phil. That's the best way to learn. Not to mention when you do a mod or upgrade on your car it makes it more yours. And that's hotrodding.
Wait - is this Norbs?
The Pro's i "Speak" to, an "Named" deal with High Horsepower Custom application's an own there own Cars....
Hell, even in Steve Woods write up,There's a time an place for Aftermarket Unit,denying that now too? Maybe a re-read? LOL Enjoy!
"Me under WOT, the factory boost gauge line slid off. The XFI saved the motor but it did cause radiator fluid damage."
"My guess it's out the exhaust or i have sleeve cylinder malfunction."
More prefured Reading, I've said Stock Units have there place, as do Aftermarket, all depends where you like your car to be at the end the day, 'peroid' not that there junk,not they don't work at all,I've seen some work,I took one 160mph stock with pitbull ATR chip, but i see none on cars in the range Speed Range i'm shooting for...simple Aftermarket ECM has more benifits in the long run ,
GN experts that have hit "the wall",80's ECM aren't made for 600+ hp modern builds,you can try to get it to work,but best to get the right parts in first place, An aftermarket ECM
If your using the stock ECM, Loose it for an Aftermarket Unit,(yea there costly but so's motor rebuilds) your right over 100mph whoa's will Vanish, It's not the tranny,I hit this wall couple years ago,Enjoy!
