Question about baro?

I am trying to set up the baro to read internaly, but I use the spare for the aux fuel cut for the two step to launch. How are you guys running the baro?

Use the Internal sensor, set it to internal, and use the Aux. In wire, not the spare a/d for activating the Aux. RPM Limit.

There is no aux RPM in the AUX in.

Ah yes, you're right..... sorry bout that... thought there was. Then my suggestion would be use the Anti-Lag instead of Aux. RPM Limit and that can be activated through the Aux. In, leaving you the Spare for something else.

You had any luck useing the antilag. I have heard nothing but bad things about it. I launch at 8200 rpm at about 10 psi of boost with the aux rpm. Is there a nother way to use the baro.

Ive seen it used and it works fine, its all about setting it up correctly, like all the other features on any EMS, i've heard and talked to tons of people saying this or that particular feature or option doesnt work, when in fact the problem was it wasnt setup correctly to begin with.

That also goes for a few people sending in their Haltechs to get repaird when in tact they had something setup or wired wrong and thats why it didnt work.

With AntiLag you'll probably get a lot more boost with a lot less revs. Give it a try.

correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't the haltech antilag require an airpump, essentially pumping air before the turbo (could use the port air injection), combined with retarded ign to burn up fuel in the turbo manifold. Thats what I get from the manual. It seems like its designed to keep the boost up at low throttle, vice getting the boost high at full throttle while limiting the RPM, for rally conditions. I'm not talking about the 2 step rev limiter.

No, antilag just retards the sh%* out of the ignition raising combustion pressure, making for a lot of turbo spooling airflow, thus giving you more power for launches, i am unaware of how exactly a rally backfiring system works so id have to read up on it to tell you, but you dont need anything other than setting it up and activating it. You can technically use the clutch switch to activate it, this allows for full throttle shifts too, sort of like the rally funcionality.

I think what your talking about in haltech terms is just a 2 step ign cut rev limiter, or perhaps where talking about features which are different between the E8/E11 and E6 series ecu's.

People commonly refer to this feature as launch control, 2 step, anti lag, full throttle shift, etc., its basically different ways to get more power during launch, keeping the turbo spooled during corners, keeping the throttle full blast during shifting, depending on what device, hardware, combination of options you use, you call it some different way.

The problem with this thread is he's not able to use the internal baro sensor because he's using the spare a/d and that takes up the channel, that is why im suggesting he use anti lag which can be activated through the aux.in wire and give him launching under boost. If he doesnt want to do that, then buy an external launch control apparatus and then use the baro correction.

Now, i have a question, where are you located that you need baro correction? because if you are located somewhere with what ever altitude if you have tuned your car for that location and dont go anywhere else, you wont need that much baro correction, but, if you do more around different altitudes then it might be practical.
