Default Got my Zeitronix installed.

I loved it so far, highly recommand it to anybody who's in the market for a wb.

Here is the whole kit, sandles are not included. Notice my EGT probe.

Here is what I'm talking about, note the wb02 sensor on the lelf is much bigger, though they use they same bung.

Here it is in action, this was after I got my idle tuned, RPM and Throtle Position are not hooked up yet. Only AFR and EGT are hooked up. EGT is in celcius.

nice....but wouldnt it be easier to have just the a/f gauge for the wb02. that way u only have to use 1 laptop to tune in realtime. but if it has a small meter that u can look at while tuning. then more power to it. cheaper i guess. but either way. good ----. how much was that?

$279, the laptop "Gauge" is always datalogging, so you make your pull, hit the space bar (to stop logging) on the computer and you can watch your entire run. You then can tune your map by just looking at your datalog run.

The laptop was more for datalogging purposes. I couldn't imagine tuning the car without the ability to datalog. You can't simply look at the meter while tuning, though you could but it will take a lot more time and effort. With this, I can take the car out for a spin, then go home and look at the graph and tune accordingly. Not only it datalog my AFR, it also datalog my EGT, Throttle position, and RPM. 350$ shipped including my EGT probe.

Jeff, I been meaning to ask you, is there a way to sense boost without buying the boost sensor? I hooked my "user define" wire to my MAP wire on my ECU in hope of getting something, but I need something to convert the the MAP voltage to boost, is there a way?

thats very true. hahaha. rather than spending 150 bucks for a freakin romulator. that could go towards something else. but then again. u can tune on the fly rather than going back and forth. it doesnt hurt the motor when u push it when its not tuned.

Huh?

As far as logging boost, havent really fucked with it, I'm probably just going to buy their fancy razzu boost sensor, they say its more accurate than any boost gauge.

If you can figure out what X.X voltage is to 0.0psi is you can just go by that if ya want.

err i mean doesnt it hurt it. hahaha my bad. typo. at first i was looking at it like wtf. but i mean like wouldnt u want to tune it from 1-3k then 3-6k and so on. rather than beating the hell out of it without a basemap. or would u just go so far. log it. then edit the chip. burn it, plug it back in, then do it all over again? im just saying wouldnt it be easier tuning in realtime then save the rom then burn it onto a chip. ---- i dont know. hahaha. i guess its a neat tool thats essential for tuning.

they sell a screen for it, but if you get the kit with the screen it's 399, the display is pretty 1337, but I don't know if it's worth the extra $120. they say the boost sensor is more accurate than "most peak and hold boost gauges" for $139 I hope I can figure out something else before I buy it.

damn thats a lot more just for the gauge. hahaha ill stick with using a laptop for the gauge. thats kinda expensive though for a boost gauge. has anyone else used it to know for sure. or are u gonna be the guinea pig and be the first one to let everyone know.
