Stillen SC A2W Plenum Temps
 
1 Attachment(s)
We all know too well that one of the short falls of the Stillen SC kit is the location of the MAF's, and with some of the temps that swiss370z has are scary.

Anyway TT was never really an option as there are issues with the LHD fittings, plus I have an A/T and is stupidly expensive to have a Bulletproof transmission shipped. So Stillen it is.

Ive spoke to my tunner, who is aware of the short falls and we decided that a temp gauge in the plenum after the cooler would be a good safety feature.

The SC is now part installed and you can see from the attached image the temp gauge is located at the rear (cosmetically better and shouldn't effect readings) and should give better temp readings and can read by EcuTek and I can keep an eye on it. Will be a good thing on track days I think.

I'll post more info and actual readings when the build is finished and the tuning the car.

Very interested to see your findings!

Ecutek can pull timing based on an additional temp sensor? Very cool.

I am very excited about the data :tup::tup::tup::tup:

In for results!

Nice. Where does it get spliced into?

TopgunZ 02-07-2016 02:19 PM

So is this a way to monitor temps or can the ecu actually adjust timing from the sensor?

The idea is to provide this information to the ecu and use accordingly. Won't know exactly what will happen till he starts to tune it at the end of next week.

I think if you take your IAT temp signal wire out of both mafs sensors and hook them up to that sensor it could work.

I think that's what was the general idea

IN for this! :)

How much boost are you running? There will be a big difference from 8psi vs. 11psi or so.

I'm still in the build process but I'm guessing it will be around 9 as all I have is the pulley upgrade due to known issued.
