Guess i need to put my nose in the friggin haltech manual some more... huh?!?!!!!

Ever since i finally got it dialed in and running good at the correct AFRs, and endless hours of dataloggin, tweakin and pissin with the fuel temp and ignition maps......... I pulled the laptop off of it and decided to let my greasy fingers off it for a while!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Maybe its time to Play some more 'cause that function would come in really handy at the strip i would think!!!

Its incredibly handy at the strip.. It allows me to build a pound or two of boost at the line, and it gives me consistent launches.

Interesting, I have the same exact system, but no FLAMES!!! I only get backfire though. I no longer have a airpump + my ACV is blocked off...also...I don't think my actuators are working either since my airpump has been removed(I have a S5). Do the ports need to be working to get some fire?

I'm going to electronically open the ports up later...

Also, I recently just bolted on the full system(3 days ago) does it have to like..."Break in" first?

Also...I finally shot out some blue flames lol! Friend described them as sky blue. Is this normal? I heard this type of color means = complete combustion!
