Congrats Phil! Make some big numbers on the dyno and scare a few SRT-4's at the track!

I may not be as quick to dive in. Get those dynos up as soon as possible and if they should significant power gains Ill be all over getting a stage II.

the power gains out of the box are not what im looking for. If there are a few ponies to be gained that will be great, but i bought it for the turbo system i have cooking.

$329 just for an upgrade chip for my $219 1v4 box.
Ouch.

I hope the dyno results are REALY good.

Your missing the point. This software and maf on its own dosnt create much more power on a factor svx)that i would think, could be wrong we will see) It allows for forced induction to boost past maxed out stock mass airflow sensor. Also, the stock sensor seems to operate very irradictly at high flow levels(which is pretty much anything wot on an SVX)

Oh I didn't miss the point,

I am just trying to work through why it would be so expensive, especialy for just the upgrade ROM vs. the entire 1v4. . .

consider yourself lucky. The wolf ecu is much more for nissians that want this conversion. It allows the stock computer to do things only a full standalone would allow.

Amen. I'm very familiar with Jim Wolf Technology and their prices from having owned a '90 300ZX TT.

You'll be a pioneer Phil. Good luck with your turbo project. You finally have the software to make it happen...

Phil,
Maybe I missed a post by LAN...have we seen any evidence that the z32 MAF won't be just as erratic at high flow levels? As far as I know, Mychailo's recent plots are the only ones that actually show what the MAF voltage is doing at higher rpms.

if you reach those high flow, high voltage levels of 400+ hp on the z32 maf let me know. most sr20 and ka turbos use this afm without a problem.

Phil,
Understood....yet "without a problem" doesn't mean that this maf's trace isn't just as erratic (and the ecu is just covering for it...)
