yeah, everybody knows how smart it is to full throttle shift in a boosted car with a fuel cut rev limit. Just becuase better management intimidates you doesnt mean its not better.

I guess your not shifting as fast as I am, hehehe...

You win, uber is better, cheaper, and more adjustment than I'll ever use...

Maybe After I get everything on the car "perfect" and I'm ready to get it dyno tuned, I'll switch over and have a pro. tuner deal with the 150 adjustments...

My car isn't really a 500whp alcy running GS-R, 220-250whp and I'm done...

Maybe I can put uber on my TT stealth, hehehe, it has real power to control...

Sorry for giving you guys a hard time, if I was just turboing my car, uber would be in the cards, instead of a FMU or afc...

You guys really think the uber basemap is better than a tuned AFC map ? ( I mean really, not me trying to be an *** ).

Since I already have the afc, I could use the uber base map to pull timing ( per psi ), and get the general fuel map for the 450s and then fine tune with the AFC on the dyno...

i ran an fmu for about 700 mi on my b16 at about6-7 psi .and everytime i drove it i ripped on it. i hit the rev limiter several times while racing. the car would still be running now but the oil pump broke. i will say this. fmus suck but they will get u buy. simple and cheap(paid like 50 bucks for my vortex fmu). just invest i an inline fuel pump.
** like i said fmus suck,i cracked my motor open the other day and was it ever clean inside, but i was running lean,according to the plugs and valves. imo fmus go rich and lower boost(1-4) and lean out from there. never got to hook the wideband up to it tho.

mine was rich with an fmu til 6psi. at 6psi my afr was like 9.5:1 they max out the stock injectors at like 12 or 13psi but thats super super lean already, 7-9 psi is like starting the lean process and it goes up from there.
