aps Member 1,505 Member For: 23y 7m 3d Posted 27/01/05 09:20 AM Posted 27/01/05 09:20 AM (edited) I'm a bit outa my league here, but the question I ask is:If a car already has a piggyback and tuned to perfection, then how can adding the edit improve on this? Thanks and Cheers B.B. <{POST_SNAPBACK}>Good question. The answer is the edit well tuned will produce approx the identiacl power as a well tuned interceptor style computer, or stand alone computer on he current xr6t engine.If you're going to build a wild mega dollar engine where the RPM limit needs to be raised above the stock rpm limit or if you want to remove a speed limiter this is where the edit technology has a real and genuine benefit. Ultimately it's the correct ignition timing, air fuel ratio, and boost pressure across all RPM and LOAD/THROTTLE sites that produces optimum power on a 4 stroke engine.

I mean if it is only for the Auto gearbox, would not some physical upgrading of the Auto be better, hope you get what I am on about?!?!The reason I ask is currently stock injectors can be maximised with the Edit, would not say Ph1/Ph2 with larger injectors benefit and thus have increased power with the additional features provided by modifying the BA computer?Cheers, Jason.

Street Tuner Member 727 Member For: 23y 9m 16d Posted 28/01/05 08:43 AM Posted 28/01/05 08:43 AM Yes, the dash will read correctly with bigger injectors and a Capa/SCT edit tuneYes the manual cars have torque limitation, and Yes it can be turned off

Street Tuner Member 727 Member For: 23y 9m 16d Posted 28/01/05 12:28 PM Posted 28/01/05 12:28 PM For too long the driveline integrity and the strength of the engine has been used as an excuse by those unable to change the factory settings. The best form of driveline protection is a sensible driver, much better than a shutting throttle

I reckon the drivetrain people are goind to rub their hands together with joy over the coming years, the rear CV joints and auto transmissions in particular are going require replacing and or rebuilding on a frequent basis. As delivered from the factory these items are bordler line in terms of torque capacity, remove any factory protection and no doubt stronger drivetrain components will be required by the guys who really use their cars, I guess you could say if you play you'd better be prepared to pay.
