Default How many are running 2 bar SD?

I'm about to make the jump to SD 2bar with HPTuner, (I just need the MAP IAT senors) I wanted to hear how many other people are running in SD mode and how they like it.

I am, using EFILive and their custom O/S. It's nice cause it puts in a boost VE table, so I don't have to run PE anymore. kbracing96 is too, he showed me how to do it with EFILive.

SD/EFILive. Working great. Recently re-activated PE though so I can delay max enrichment beyond 105kPa.

Like Thunder said, I am too. I did try turning the pe back on only having it enable at 115kPa, so I could get a little bit of boost and still be in semi closed loop 14.68:1 (trying to get a little better highway mileage) but it would stick at commanding 12:1 A/F after making a WOT run and I didn't have time to mess with, Thunder needed the cable, so I want back to my good old trust SD tune till I get my new V2 cable from EFILive

I believe Holty just upgraded. I have been on the edge for a few months now. I really want to badly, it's just been one money spending thing after another around here and the hundred some bucks for it just hasn't came up yet.

What's the IAT about? I thought it was MAP upgrade only.

STS guys still have the IAT sensor in the MAF. Its moved to the intake on the Radix kit.

doh! Yeppers. I keep forgetting about that. I guess it's me thinking FI just means you have a radix, nothing else. LOL

No problem with it sticking. Right now I am using the whole combo(B3647/PE/Semi CL). Tried it out on a highway trip last weekend. I think AFR tends to jump around more in CL than SD except when cruising at a steady speed. SD seems to be respond faster and more smoothly.

I think I know what was causing it, and how to fix it, but I don't have a cable right now, so I'm in a holding pattern
