    Hey guys.. greetings.. well Im going back to a Carb/blow threw set-up....I used to have a blow threw turbo cutlass, i had it on pass time turbo edition..Cory's old car..anyhows I had a C&S on it and I was learning to tune on it... It was amazing how good the car ran...it idled great ect.... my current combo is a 93 coupe lx..331sbf -glide-with agt55/ 91mm garret ,AMS1000 boost control ,race track only ride... its fuel injected[ its all for sale on YB]....Im sick of Dyno trips... everytime we go some stupid little problem comes up & BAM... another wasted 200 mile trip that costs way to much... anyhows.. back to the switch ..already talked with Roger going 850 C&S with his log-regulator.... I really liked my Accel wideband set-up last time... had a LM1 that logged IAT's, boost ect... but we never could get decent AF readings with the LM1..... What do you guys use for data logging ? I need to log : boost, A/F ratio, IAT's, fuel pressure ......what box/or system can I use ??? Does a 7531 log all this ?

    Welcome back to the dark side... LOL! (The better side actually in my book). Talk to Roger for a data logger, he used to sell a pretty good one and I bet he can get you one that will do everything that you need.

    why in hell would you come back to something that doesnt work-the only thing a carb is good for is you can tune it yourself, 1/4 the price of FI, trouble free, lol
    i have had good luck with the LM-1, logging everything, using the aux box with it-actually on a pass last year, it showed where a glich was on the launch, and i could see where the stall was-sometimes i used a stand alone box for my IAT's, used to use it on the exhaust, but with a blower, i kind of felt the readings were useless, at least to me
    be interested to see whats out there also, but wonder if leaded fuel (race) throws the AFR's off

    Hopefully the return to blow-thru goes well for you Danny.
    I just worry about the guy you sold the XFI to, hopefully he can get it to work.
