SMC 500

Re:SMC 500

it works ok, but there are drawbacks. It has no high/lo throttle, so part throttle driving will be a little weird. Also, tuning it takes some time. I have one, and i do use an intank pump as well, but i doubt you would need it for low boost.

Re:SMC 500

How much boost do you run? turbo? motor? other mods? do you drive your car eveyday? so smc can handle 10psi ok? how does your car run?

I concur with Ghetto on this statement, I am running the SMC 500 on our shop car and the transition from coasting to accelerating causes the car to jerk/stumble just slightly. If you step on it you don't notice as much.

We are working on getting a dealer agreement with Perfect Power to begin offering the SMT-6, which I hope will be a much better solution...

Re:SMC 500

get a smc dual because it has a seperate fuel map for under 3k rpm which should handle part throttle cruising that just my guess because i didnt use mine yet

Re:SMC 500

i ran 13psi daily on a d16y7...and its not that the jerkiness is just down low, so the smc dual wont help unless it has hi/low throttle, which i dont think it does.
