Cyclone RPM Switch

[AgntorangeDSM]

So i went with this guys How To thread and it DOESN'T work according to HIS instructions and Diagram. http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/showthread.php?t=224551&highlight=Cyclone
i have the same summit switch and its hooked up to the same spot my shift light is so know i have rpm signal and the green light turns on but i only get .160 to .200 volts.....? WTF???? i'm confused so if any body has an idea on how this is suppose to work PLEASE help thanks.

do you have it hooked up into the fprs? if you and you need to provide power to the solenoid for it to work

Did you adjust the dip switches inside the unit?

I hate to bring up the oldness, but we are running into the same problem. The summit swith box that is mentioned in that thread is calabrated for an 8 cylinder motor. Did you ever get it worked out?

 

[AgntorangeDSM]

yes sir I sure did!! runs like a dream now!!

 

[thom2white]

So are you still using the Summit Box that is described in that original thread? I never could get the green signal light to light up. Summit has agreed to swap it out for a different model, the model that is set up for a 4 cylinder. I'm going to give that guy a shot.

I'm curious too as to if you got that summit switch to work. im finishing my jdm motor install this weekend and running the cyclone intake. I need to order that if it does in fact work properly.

Why are you using an electronic switch to actuate the Cyclone? Chances are if you're doing a 6-bolt swap, you've got DSMLink, which lets you actuate the cyclone runners through the nitrous controls. Wicked easy to do, and no additional wiring needed.

6 bolt swap?? i already have the jdm 4g63 but no intake so i bought the cyclone to finish it off. Any ways yes i am still using the summit switch but i found that for my solenoid to kick over i had to switch the connectors around on it. (in other words i ran it off the neg pulse instead of the pos.) i'll have to go look at it again tomorrow since it's been awhile. but i got mine switched out from summit as well but the same model but i was having trouble w/ the solenoid kicking over.

That makes me feel a little better. For all that are interested I believe this is the correct model that should of been listed in the original tech article:
Summit SUM-830450 - Summit RPM-Activated Switches with Digital Readout - summitracing.com
Anyway it's nice to see others trying this out. There is a lot of trash talk about these manifolds, but honestly if you not looking for a damn super car these things make for awsome street manifolds. Some people just don't know when they have something good

I have one. I bought an entire JDM GVR4 engine to get the head, intake, and supporting hardware. I'm going for as close to an OEM-looking install as I can, and am using DSMLink to actuate it. I think it'll work great for a daily driver.

Yea i LOVE this intake especially w/ the rpm switch so i can open it when i choose, i don't know of the gains i got off it but i do know that it definitely helped for a daily driver street car ;-)
