Hey guys so in the beginning of my build I thought about going with the dsmlink and run my stock mafs to its max. I just recently got a great deal on a new aem ems and been trying to sale my dsmlink and EPROM ecu.

My questions are,
With the aem ems can I run it with out the mafs?
Can i also just throw a cone on the turbo intake side?
I also have the arc-2, is that something that can work well with the aem or the aem will do the same as the arc-2? Or its ether, one or the other?
 
Not too sure about your questions, but when it comes time to sell that DSMLink let me know :thumb:
 
Yes you can run AEM in speed density(no MAF), you will need a MAP sensor, and an AIT sensor for it to work properly.

Yes you can just throw a cone on the turbo, if that's what you want to do. I opt to route it out to fresh, colder air.

Keep your ARC-2, it will work great with AEM. AEM is not capable of doing the same thing as the arc-2.
 
As far as the dsmlink goes its up for sale already LOL

for the turbo i got my self a spare front light and drilled a hole with some screan on it and im routing a intake witha cone to the light.

i only cut out the high beam, and i still have a normal none touched light that i can use.

thankx every one and gsxstasy
 
Another question guy's as far the map sensor goes there's a
3.5 bar map or 50 Pisa sensor!
And
5 bar map or 75 Pisa sensor!

If I can understand it correct 5 bar is good up to 75 psi of boost and the 3.5 bar map is good up to 50 psi.
They are both the same price, but I also don’t plane one running the gt35r more then 35psi.

What would you guy's recommend?
 
It should be psia = pressure per square inch absolute. That means it is measured from a vacuum. So the 3.5 bar will actually read to 50-14.7 = about 35 psi boost and the 5 bar will read to about 60 psi.
 
Only get a big enough MAP sensor for what you're going to run. Going too large will make a bunch of areas on your map that you won't ever hit, there by reducing the amount of tuning resolution you have at each PSI(load cell) that you are using..
 
Ya definitely only get the 3.5 bar if you aren't going over 35 psi. With either one you have the same amount of adjustment cells for fuel tuning. With the 5 bar however you will have a higher range covered by each cell. Ex: 3.5 one cell might be 14-17 psi while on the 5 bar the same cell would cover 14-19.
 
This will be my DD, and I don’t plan on boosting it more then maybe 25psi on a everyday drive, as for max boost goe's I will be hoping to dyno the car with this set up with no more then 35psi, not that I wouldn’t want more boost to see what this set up would max out but I don’t know what this set up/ turbo can Handel.

What would you guy’s recommend as for boost at the dyno with the gt3582r on race gas?
And also what would be a good boost for this turbo on an everyday car on 93?
