o.k. i did some data logging and adjusted my map a little. so i figure let me really wring out the throttle and see what i got. i had the turbo since december and never really, really nailed it like i did today. the f1 light came on when i did. i wasn't logging at the time so i let the adrenaline subside a little and went for it again- all out. fi light again. looked at my data when i got home and nothing that out of the ordinary i think. 11.7 a/f,  max tp 86%, max duty cycle 73%, max boost 7.37 psi, max speed (gps) 143mph, max rpm 9540, 2 pair underwear, 4th gear run. i only made adjustments in 3 to 6 k range so i don't think my map was the cause?

im not a fan of it but you cant do much about it
at 85% duty cycle you are basically maxed out with injectors

So if you have secondaries, will you trip the light?

no not if the check valve routing is properly setup so the map sensor doesn't see boost
if setup correct the fi light won't come on (mine never did)

we gots lots of locals here with secondaries that trip the FI light......i would assume they are set up correct as they are TRUE street bikes that run 8.30's-8.70's.  MCX express kits. its really not a big deal just a little annoying....just a idiot light, doesn't mean your shit is gonna blow up.

the setup i had never set off the light when i had my last turbo bike

the code he is throwing isnt the same as the code he is throwing


the code they throw is from their shifter (i would set it off with the shifter but never from the turbo kit)
that is the difference between theirs and his Wink

he prolly wont burn it up but he is pushing the limits of the injectors

Well, I'll have an air shifter from Matt from CycleTek here shortly. Having the light turn on doesn't bother me I was just curious.

Does the light trip whether using a fuel cutoff or ignition cutoff? I'd imagine both as the ECU would see both instances as an issue.

matts doesn't set off the light
its the mps box that does it
and its the ignition kill that sets the light off (except matt's)

if codes are pulled you can tell
i know with a stage one it would be due to the injectors being over used Wink
there is an older tee setup with check valves im not a fan of that seem to still get ya at higher boost levels
they arent having the same problem as a stage 1 Wink

but brians problem is the injectors being over 70% duty cycle Wink

i wont ave that problem any more
i am going to be running a standalone (no fi light lol)

Guys tripping the FI with secondarys probably need a second checkvalve,they will be running higher boost and the single checkvalve can't relieve enough pressure from the IAP.

Probs from the high dutycycle or rpm with the pc3usb is the std ecu expects to see a back spike from the injector firing,pc replicates this but once the duty cycle gets high enough for some reason the pc can't keep the proper signal happening. probably the initiation of the next inj event is overlapping
