Who has wot box on a TC?
Who has wot box on a TC?
Just as title says. If you have, I have a couple ?'s The first one is did you cut ignition and fuel, or just ignition? We had it hooked up to just cut ignition like N2MB states, had the loudest bang I have ever heard followed by an atom bomb coming out of the tailpipe that went all the way to the ceiling. There were 4 of us in the shop and seriously could here for 5 minutes. I mean my uncles .50 cal. isnt this loud.
So that I have adjustability on the two step at the track.
We had TC completly off.
This. On the stock two step, it drops to 30 vacuum, and the wot box builds a solid 5 pounds of boost.

I have to, but how do we know for sure it is working properly. Also when tuned how do we know it is still working how it is suppose to?
NLS is a feature that can be used when ever the ca ris running regardless of traction settings... Launch Control is only on when you turn on Comp mode or ESC OFF. I am also curious to see how the computer reacts to having the wot box and launch conrol though

No need to show it on here, but here's a link for Comp Mode just in case you're interested

If you are dropping to 30mmhg vac you have an issue. Mine usually settles around 10mmhg vac how I do it through HPT.
But, to answer the original question, I think it is supposed to cut ignition only.

Right-click, save as.
^- Just for further reinforcement, above is a video I put together shoowing the stock boost repsonse characteristics, no-lift shift in each mode, and demo of launch control with different clutch engagements. (~29 MB .mp4 video, use QuickTime or VLC and please download to save bandwidth vice streaming).
I personally see no need for adding one to the SS Turbo. Watch what the boost response characteristics of the stock turbo during a Launch Control launch and it immediately builds boost once there is a load placed on the engine. The people who could actually benefit from fractionally more boost in the already heavily torque-multiplied first gear should probably already have downgraded the front brakes in order to run slicks.
The adjustability might be nice to tailor launch control for the track and tires being used, but I'd rather do that by altering the factory calibration if HP Tuners can add or has already added this support. If you decided to run the WOT Box or similar device I'd also prefer to disable the stock no-lift shifting in the calibration as well. In the end without running slicks the best launches I've found on sticky street tires on a good track have still been by launching at much lower rpms (although launch control is pretty fun on rare occasions
).

Just like your turbo timer thats not needed. watch it before you post.
Thats probably what we will do.
