setting in main controller. Once this is done, monitoring engine knock, race car…. If knock
retard is encountered, ascertain if the knock is occurring as the boost increases(transitional) or is
occurring at due to high boost levels.
Adding gain to the knob(clockwise) increases pump pressure output. If the knock is occurring
due to transitional, increasing initial pump speed or decreasing turn-on point will aid these
conditions. Again every vehicle is different, the initial and turn-on will more than likely never be
recalibrated once system is setup. They will not correct a tuning problem and/or engine fault.
Timing suggestions, Low timing and high boost. Setting up the fueling, timing, coupled with
the alcohol output requires time and patience. Do small steps at a time and enjoy the product and
its technology.
The pump features an allen screw to adjust pressure activation. Every vehicle is different, as will
be the setting of this screw. Suggestion is to have it sense pressure early on. If there ever is an
issue with the system(empty tank, tank leak, clogged feed line, etc) this will advise of a problem.
Although it can be set to activate under higher pressures. This is a personal preference. And the
brown wire can be used for triggering boost controllers as well. No pressure=no Hi Boost
