I would just like to know why you are avoiding this question. It seems simple to me, you must of read it if you were about to post 40 min ago. I'm one who would also like to know the answer to this question as it will make my decision on whether to purchase your kit or not. I need more then just " trust me everyone will switch once they have it " .. that makes it sound more like snake oil -_-.. |

Short of putting both meth kits on the same car, sharing the same bottle, any direction comparison test is impossible. But rest assured that the real world differences between PWM vs. PPS meth kits is pretty obvious from even insensitive drivers. Saying "just execute the shift faster" to avoid boost drop and resultant injection delay associated with PPS systems is ridiculous. Shiv |

Drop your starting to point to whatever boost you can hold btwn a shift. In my log outside of the 1-2shift i never fell below 10psi Last edited by Clap135; 05-08-2011 at 07:23 PM.. |

You are seeing TMAP/Chargepipe pressure that doesn't fall below 10psi between gears. Your actual boost pressure drops quite a bit more than that. You can conclude that by looking at your throttle blade angle (CAN dbw throttle) during that moment. The only time pre and post TB pressure is equal is when CAN dbw throttle is fully open (or close to it).

Log your flow meter signal. You'll see that it will usually drop between gears. Even with fast shifts. You'd have to set your max meth psi setting to 6-7psi and shift quickly ALL THE TIME to make it flow between shifts.

If you actually read my last post, I said the only way to get it to flow between gears is to set your max setting to 6-7psi and to shift quickly (under .3 seconds) ALL THE TIME.
So in essence, you are suggesting that instead of using a constant pressure/pwm meth kit that has no delay time, the better approach to run a PPS system set to dump full meth at low boost and to rip off fast shifts? Really?? And btw, we use a running average/smoothing function to logged meth flow. The raw signal on the CM/Labonte/Snow flow meters are a lot noisier than that. So don't pat yourself on the back to hard by seeing a flatlined meth flow log between a shift ![]() |

But personally I have stated many times, im a full flow by 6psi... Fiddle sticks, I saw you posted and hoped to see logs. |

Your argument about the kits being able to make similar power is not the point clap. The point of the PWM kit is it's seamless stock like power delivery during all conditions. I know since all you clearly do is drive wot every where so that is fine for you. Ok sure the kits perform "similar" in a wot drag race condition. What about on the race track or just spirited canyon drives. I'm only wot on straights for slight bursts. 90% of the time I will be partial throttle because of turn ins and smooth exits. The PWM will deliver a instant perfectly atomized spray during all of these variable load conditions and it's the speed at which it reacts, that is the impressive feature of the PWM. Your overly obsessed with logs and quarter mile times. Again sometimes it's about the entire drive, even more so on the race track. Which doesn't matter to you. This is why you cannot wrap your mind around this concept. You simply think life is all about wot. So just sit back and let those who are interested in this, seamless delivery during all conditions kit, enjoy it. Get out from under your bridge and see the light.

Now if you have the piggyback running the meth pump like is possible with the JB4 or any piggyback system then you can introduce special shift logic. Like considering whether the throttle blade is open, considering whether we're doing a WOT shift and want to keep some meth flowing during the shift, etc. Mike |

I know its Sunday, but let's do some math. At 5000rpm, there are 83 engine cycles per second. So if boost only takes say 0.1 second to rise from 5psi to 15psi, you are left with 0.4 seconds of full boost and no meth flow. In that 0.4s, there are 33 engine events where you have full load and no meth flow. So that is okay? |

The people commenting in this thread are funny actually, cause if they knew the purpose of pwm, they would refrain from making the comments they made to justify a kit which on this car will not perform ANY different from a regular kit.
