Dsmlink V3

Speed Density is a full stand alone right? Does this map sensor go to a gauge or does it go into the dsmlink?
 
Speed density is not stand alone or piggy back. Speed density is just another way of tuning. Since you'd be using DSMlink, it would not be a full stand alone since you're still using the stock ECU.

AEM EMS, Haltec, etc. are full stand alone systems. I was say DSMlink is more closer to a stand along than to a piggy back.

The MAP sensor will get logged in DSMlink.

Speed Density is just another way of measuring the mass airflow, the factory setup uses a MAF to measure it directly where S/D measures it indirectly from the manifold pressure, RPM and engine volumetric efficiency.
 
Ah ok. So I need to go out get new injectors, boost controller, boost gauge, wide band, dsmlink, and 5bar map sensor to get dsmlink up and going and tuned correctly? Thank you for all the help.
 
You don't need anything more than a laptop, EPROM ECU and DSMLink to get going.

You do need a boost gauge when you get a boost controller or want to turn up the boost in any way.

The Wideband and MAP sensor are to help you instrument your car to aid with tuning.

Once you turn up the boost and when you get the new turbo you'll need the new, bigger injectors to get the most out of it.

None of this really belongs in the DSM V3 thread, it's basic stuff.
 
Well I just ordered up a new ECMlink v3 package with the gm maf cable and 1g eprom conversion. Thomas is a great guy and had great customer service!! Cant wait to start tuning.

People that dont know I have been tuning a 16g on e85 at 30+psi on 1200cc injectors with just a maf-t and an safc. Its been working out but timing is a little high and idle is not the best. Not to mention a jumpy afr while cruising. Should be so much nicer after V3 is installed.

Yup, you'll be happy with the purchase. Have you messed with dsmlink before?
 
That would be awesome. I have never tuned off load. Ive tuned dsmlink v2, safc, and emanage blue. Emanage is set up in cells but uses rpm x throttle % instead of load.

I cant wait till it comes in. Im guessing night and day on driveabilitly compared to safc/maft and 1200cc injectors.

Does anybody with DSMlink know of any updates when Speed Density is going to be available for V3? I really hope it doesn't take like another yr.

We're working as fast as we can, I promise. It's most certainly not going to be another year, but it's not going to be next week either. It's running fine in both our test cars, so the bulk of the ECU implementation is already done. It's just going to take time to properly integrate with our current functionality. MAF compensation, GM MAF support, MAF Clamp, base MAF swapping, ECU input definitions, etc... We can't just slap our version of SD in and release. It has to integrate cleanly and intuitively with a huge number of other features and functions in ECMLink. Keep in mind this has to work on 1G and 2G ECUs equally well too... The regression testing effort alone is a decent bit of work, much less the bigger task of testing the new stuff.

Figure at least a month before we're ready to talk about releasing anything. And, of course, then we have to work on *how* to release our first firmware upgrade... There will have to be some procedure and support structure in place for that on top of everything we're already doing....

So we're not taking this release lightly. And it's going to include a few other cool new features too. So please be patient just a little longer.

That is great guys. With the idle clamp feature most of the maf issue is gone anyways. But will be nice to run without a maf. I just got the link in and having some issues but hopefully work them out today.

Thank you for your fast response, i was just kind of curious\antsy to when it should be coming out. I will be purchasing V3 perhaps in the following few weeks.
 
Idle clamp feature is amazing Tom. Car tried to do the normal stalling coming to stop or putting clutch in real fast after a throttle. I opened laptop and enabled idle clamp feature. Now it has not stalled once and I have tried to make it stall multiple times. Working out great.

Oh wow, I didn't know about that feature. That happens to me sometimes, so annyoing.
 
As soon as speed density becomes available, Im on board. Just waiting until i absolutely need it. Which will be this summer. Im about to that point though. I need to buy a few more things, then buy the FMIC and piping and weld in the bungs. Any place thats best guys?

I would have the map sensor on the intake manifold. And I would put the ait sensor only a couple inches before the throttle body. You want the reading to be as close to the cylinders as possible.

Im guessing i would have to weld in the MAP sensor into the Magnus manifold correct? Or it a standard size bung that they have in the back??
