AuxMAP_ON for water injection
Just wondering if I could use this function along with a relay, switch, or just plugged directly into the power wire of my water pump to make my water pump come on at a certain boost level? I think this would be a much safer bet than using my current boost activated switch. If I can do this what method of hooking this up would be the most fail safe?
Yes you can.
Hook it up through a relay and hook up a 12v led to the output wire to the pump so you know if the wiring has failed for any reason the led will not light up.
nothing is 100% failsafe. But the above will get you close.

nevermind, after some searching it looks like I just use the white aux wire for the auxmap_on function because the white and red has already been used for he fan. Now just to figure out exactly how to wire up the relay. I know I'm slow...

Well I've got it wired up like this. Basically just modified the efan diagram and set it to 10hg's in the auxmap_on and ran the car to test it. No go. What am I doing wrong?

You have wired the relay correctly.
If memory serves me correctly, their is one temp out put, one RPM output and one LOAD out put.
You may need to use the white/black wire to trigger the water injection.

I could not, for the life of me, get this feature to work. The first 30amp relay I had just stayed on no matter what so I'm guessing it was a bad relay. Put another one in and it never came on period. The only thing I could try is maybe hook the white microtech wire up to the new relay to see if maybe that would fix it.
is it possible to run 3 devices from the Aux output?
each triggered by either load, rpm or water temp.
in the manual i read the following:
NOTE: the Auxiliary output can only control one device; it is not possible to run both the cold air bypass and
boost control at the same time.
can someone clarify?
thanks,
Gunn.

Hey Honda H8er, I use my micro. aux for fan control and I use my turbosmart e boost for my injection there maybe more controllers with an aux output lots of turbosmart h8ers but Mine has been perfect FYI

I was actually gonna try a 1/8" to 1/4" push-loc line adapter, and just feed the nylon line straight into my push-loc vac system, instead of using that silly silicone adapter.

right but can they be used simutaniously or can you only use one of them at a time? For instance I've got an efan, does this mean I can't use any other outputs or is this just wrong info?
