Neither of you know what's going to happen when you launch these cars. Especially Hunter. So btstone I say you have the advantage if you can catch hunter before he can dial the car in.

My car will be pretty close to be dialed in when it is finished. I also have tracton control with my ecu.

You still going to give up 2 lengths??

Absolutley! I have no problems with that.

Bstone runs the AEM ECU (as do I), so he has ECU-based TC also. I have spent a good bit of time tuning the TC on AEM and can definitely say that rpm/speed/time based TC is not as good as wheel sensor based TC. If you are serious about using TC, just get the RaceLogic unit. It is much better, although it is pricey. Dynolab is a RaceLogic dealer, so Arthur could probably answer any questions about it.

I am using the BS3 ECU. The BS3 is what the top racers use for our engines as well as the ford guys. Depending on track conditions, we also pull timing out to reduce the wheel spin as well. Unfortunatly, my boost controller will not be able to help on the wheel spin situation.

If you spin you are going to get beat!!

And we are so sure he won't? I got my basis covered. I am not worried about him. 2 cars is not that much! I will be passing him by the 8th mile. You are forgetting. My 8th mile mph will be what his 1/4 mile mph will be!

stop being so sure hunter. if you get embarassed dont make excuses when i post vidoes on MCE and everywhere u post

I believe thats confidence in his driving and car... thats all! You show the same things when you talk about your s2k. just my

No excuses.I won't be embarassed either! Feel free to do what ever you choose. It's just a race. By all rights you should win! You are getting 2 lenghts and the move, so the race is already in your favor! If you actually wanted to race like real men race, then you would race heads up! But since you whine all the time, I figured I would give you a head start! LMAO!!

There are boost controllers out there that you can set a different boost level for each gear to reduce wheel spin. IIRC Lightspeed with his supra used that and it worked very well for him.

Yeah I know. I am still using my old trusty manual pro bosst controller. It works real well for me, so far.

BS3 uses driveshaft speed, and can either drop cylinders, or can pull timing like the AEM. The fact is that TC that is not wheel sensor based is simply doing it off mathematical calculations based upon that values that you give it for traction conditions. Changing tires, weather, unprepped track, etc., all affect those calculations. You pretty much have to adjust it slightly each time the conditions change for optimal performance. As you can guess, I'm not a huge fan of that method. Measuring slippage makes more sense to me.

BS3 can be setup to control multiple staged boost solenoids, right? The AEM has boost solenoid control built in, and I thought that I remembered seeing that listed in the BS3, but that was a while back.

To be honest, I am not going to be going with all the other traction control device's. I will be adjusting timing depending on the trac conditions. As far as the boost control capabilities, it can control the boost, but I have a manual controller for that. Keep in mind, I am just using the BS3 for the engine capabilities basicly. About half of what this system is capable of. LOL!
