[eclips3_xs]

HEY GUYS I WAS WONDERING WHAT IS THE BEST ELECTRONIC DEVICE THAT CAN TUNE AIR/FUEL AND BOOST. THEIRS SO MUCH ELECTRONIC CONTROLS OUT THERE THAT I GET CONFUSED WITH. SO CAN U HELP ME PICK ONE THAT IS THE BEST TO TUNE MY DSM 2G

 

[PIMking]

DSMlink. Please dont use caps the whole time.

 

[guitarhero14]

DSMlink without a doubt. Very user friendly and customer support and forums are great. Very reasonably priced as well. Search the forums and you will find lots of information on this topic.

 

[PIMking]

I cant wait to get my DSMlink next week Im so stoked!!!

 

[eclips3_xs]

Easy for you to say. I'm not familiar with these things i need to tune my car because I'm running ether too rich or lean ether one and i need to tune it with something simple by the way my car is all stock. I only have full exhaust k&n filter and front mount that's it.

 

[JPJ2007]

DSMLink by far. You wont need anything more unless your insane.
DSMlink has taken a few people into the 8s in the 1/4 !!! Im buying dsm link once I get some extra
cash for my stock 95 GSX. Im stoked and cant wait!
If you need any more info on it check out their website. DSMLink Homepage

Edit: DSMLink is very userfriendly, It only takes some reading and learning and your good to go.
The price Might be a lil up there but is worth every penny. Do it once and do it right!
Its ok if your stock, Im stock and im gettin it. Alot of power can be had from some tuning on a stock dsm.
Our cars run really rich from the factory, 9.5 WOT and its best to tune for 11.5 WOT
So your going to save Gas,(Which will pay for itself over time) gain power and the knowhow and the satisfaction of learning to tune!

Jup if u say so what do you have to have to hook it up or tune it a laptop or something like that. Beginner like me might tune it wrong and mess up my dsm which i strongly don't wanna do

 

[vaboys2ndgen]

Pocket logger and safc is you in a tough spot will get you decent enough tune. wideband makes things even better

dsmlink is def. the way to go with an eprom ecu thats socketed.

 

[eclips3_xs]

What is the EPROM ecu what it replaces your stock ecu or just tunes it. Cant you run the dsmlink with the stock ecu.

 

[J-speed99]

you need a 95 eprom ecu to use dsmlink.

 

[No_Skillz]

You need to give us a realistic idea of what your goals are.

If you don't need more than 550cc injectors (estimated 350hp capable), AFC will get the job done.
If you want more than 550cc injectors, look into DSMLink.

A boost gauge and a wideband are a necessity no matter what level you are tuning at.

An EPROM ECU is a special type of ECU that came only in the '95 turbo model year. It, along with a chip, OBDII/Serial cable, and the DSMLink software (and obviously a laptop/pocket PC to run it on) is necessary. For more info look toward DSMLink Homepage.

update your mods list on here that will help out if not follow this step by step.

[eclips3_xs]

I don't want too much power 350 - 400 HP is enough. that's what they all say. Do you really need wideband for it to work

 

[vaboys2ndgen]

makes life easier to have a wideband

 

[JayRolla]

Even if 350whp is your goal, DSMlink should be the way too go. Im running an safc just fine but if I had dsmlink I could get a lot more of the car.

 

[99 gst spyder]

depending on how much power your're going for.. dsmlink is always the best choice for any whp....planning on just tuning your fuel mod and smaller turbo upgrade with basic mod, i'd say safc would be a good choice alond with fuel upgrade....logger and wideband is a must if self tune....

 

[wancsta]

Really? No one even mentioned EMS, Megasquirt etc. ........don't get me wrong dsmlink is awesome and probably the best choice for you and 95% of us on here. But there are other's just an FYI. I suggest buying a boost gauge replacing your belts first

 

[eclips3_xs]

So you guys think that i should get wideband and a dsmlink as well. also what's good to tune boost.

 

[LTUDSM]

he said that he got a full exhaust and front mount ic,so my question would be?! why he needs a dsmlink or some other piggyback,to tune his stock fuel?????? hm..... u can't run rich or lean,if you got a full exhaust and FMIC.....

 

[eclips3_xs]

Yeh but when i punch it and swich the gears my rpm falls to 0 and my car dies out. so their has to be something wrong?

 

[LTUDSM]

does it pulls good? got any CEL? (check engine light on),what is your VAC reading???

did you looked at your spark plugs???? If they got a white tip= youre running lean.If you got Black tip= you are running rich
