So with the added support for 07-08 autos is there anyway to run a low boost (7psi) setup?
I was talking to Kinetic Autoworks and they told me to ask for help from James?? maybe he could work something out for the element, I know from the boosted element FB group there would be alot of interest.
08 A/T element
Re: 08 A/T element
It would be MAF based and you'd like run into several error codes at first. These ECUs aren't setup for forced induction.
Re: 08 A/T element
I'm willing to give it a try if I will be getting support on the forum. was this done before? anyone with experience in what sort of trouble/limitations I'd run into?
Re: 08 A/T element
If it was done before the options you'd need would already exist.
Re: 08 A/T element
what I meant is if its been done before with Ktuner on any other honda/acura platform with similar ecu limitations to the element...
what would the tuning strategy be like and what would be the limitations
I've been using piggyback FIC6 for the past 3 years but it has some issues like
1- slight throttle tip in stumble
2- can't optimize timing for 93 octane in the off-boost part of the map
3- no control over vtc, vtec, open/closed loop switchover
4-not very precise control for AFRs
I assume none of these would be an issue with ktuner

Re: 08 A/T element
You'd certainly gain control over some of that, but run into issues with codes related to manifold pressure etc.
