How do you accomplish that? I have asked TurboXS and of course they said you couldn't do it. But I asked around on WRXHackers.com and they said it wasn't possible as well. I'd love to know how to do that.

you had issues tuning the PE's with a UTEC? i have heard of alot of problems, unless you reflash the PCM so you arent changing the MAF voltage that much. i had alot of problems tuning the UTEC with modded inj. it would run great for a day, and then the ECU would relearn and fuck shit up. i did it one day to try it, i was running pinks. i didnt like them. not to mention the pattern didnt look good to me. too concentrated. i was doing flow testing on them at work one day when i was bored, made a test bench and all. they worked, but i was afraid of puddling alot. the PE's are great for pattern and flow, aside from the resistor having to be done. or have they got a different one out now?

you use the voltage output of the wideband as an input on the accessory plug. takes some creativity to wire...but once you have an input, you can log the data with the UTEC software.

Ah yes the LM-1 is a very good unit. If I could go back and do it again that's the one I would probably go with. On the output side it lets you set the parameters as well as allowing you to calibrate it. You can also use a cheap pos sensor or a nice expensive one depending on how accurate you want it to be.

Actually, I found some software that compiles the LM-1 log and UTEC log into one log and then graphs it....

Now, if I can get Chris to get off his butt and buy a LM-1....

You can buy a harness ($30 i think) for the LM-1 that allows you to do data imputs like RPM, throtal ex. into it and data log on the unit it's self. Then you just unplug it take to you computer and download the data logs.

You all should just het a TUNER.

Ya, i ordered rails, in the process of gettin injectors. I got the wideband, so we can mess around and hopefully get some good stuff done.

the rails make life SOOOOO much easier to swap injectors. i can do mine in about 10 min/side, and that includes two beers (one per injector)

fc, i never ran the PE's with my setup, i tried the modded injectors. WRBWRX just bought my turbo and hes gonna try them out. as far as the rails go, i couldnt agree more. once i installed my perrin fuel rails, swapping injectors doesnt take much more than 20 min like you said. definitely makes like alot easier and frees up a little more space to work down in there.
