ps1000 how does it know what gear your in?

As the title states, I was looking at my closed loop boost soliod setup and it shows boost by gear but when I look at the inputs section I dont see anything you can specify to designate what gear your actually in.

If you tap into the VSS source then you program it in the gear setup menu. It is super easy. Takes like 2 min.

I dont know what wire it is as I used the patch harness.

It is guess and check as far as what number to input for the pulse per mi. Mine is 1650/mi but I also have a 4.30 R&P. It should be somewhat close. Just bring a GPS with you and go for a drive and change the number till they match up.

You need the signal off the dash, not from the trans. Pin 1M green/red I believe.

The signal from the trans is an analog signal. The ECU needs digital. You can use it, but you'll need an A/D converter between the two.

The MSD-8509 box is probably the easiest to source. Not sure what you'd have available in Poland.

You should use a Hall sensor. It will provide the required square-wave signal. The Mazda crank sensor is VR, not Hall. Basically, you're looking for something with 3-wire connection, not two. If you can't find anything locally, let me know. We can send you something.
