Let’s make sure to let the potential DIYers know to check that base ignition timing with a timing light before jumping in it. I’ve seen a couple of goons melt pistons because they were commanding way more timing than they thought they were. Set your solenoid frequency to 19.5Hz with a 10ms control interval. There should be a dedicated Boost control pin, but I’ve been away from the game for a minute. Polarity doesn’t matter on the MAC valve so just set it to normal, but once you guys get it sorted, remember to ramp that boost in gradually on the stock motor to keep the torque under control (drift car I know 🥲, but it’ll help the engine last). Chris, don’t go manual boost controller. Worst case, just rip it on gate pressure til Mike can get you on the dyno, and INVITE ME. lol You guys are badass though for real.
RSI style manifolds always sound soooo good

Thanks for the tips!
Looking forward to you making a series out of this one.
Loving all your turbo content, more about tuning stock ecu forced induction cars please!
I don't tune the stock ecus for forced induction anymore, drivability is terrible
Chris sounding like a real BMW now haha
🙇🏼♂️🙇🏼♂️
Mac valves need pwm ground to work best. Double check that output has that function.
Good to know
Cool video ive got the same ecu and love it so far. Im interested on how you set up and tuned the vanos using the software
We'll get into that when we hit the dyno soon
we all know what that window was on the hood lol
Would that gm iat work for a link pnp im piecing my similar build not sure what sensors i need
Yeah it will work
