Boost controllers nor boost pills have anything to do with MIVEC.

On another unrelated note, all trolling posters within this thread have been added to our IGNORE list, a feature on evom used to "ignore" and make disappear from the user's forum view.

If we have determined you do not have a genuine interest in our product, the only posts you have in the last 6 months are vendor bashing posts, or you have been infracted for not following the forum rules and have received points assigned to your username for your actions and disregard of the rules of the forum, then you will likely be ignored because your screen name doesn't exist any longer according to our Evom account.

Thank you. We will continue to update our sticky thread as we progress in our Dyno Tuning and Results come in.

 

Yes Sir, I know that, as I said in the above post...

With that being clarified, how are you manipulating MIVEC? Or are you saying that you are not manipulating it at all?

Thank you in advanced for being patient with my questions as an interested consumer in the market for a tuning solution.

 

sooooooooooooooooo for the x amount of time, how do you guys control mivec?

 

Depending on the settings used in the ZChip programming as tuned by the end user, the offsets used in the software will determine what load cell programming for MIVEC will be affected on the existing ECU mapping.

The ZChip has the broadest range of any piggyback unit with 510 adjustments to each 100 rpm input as well as 250 raw MAP rescaling points on top of that with another 510 adjustment points on each of the 250 raw MAP points according to MAP sensor inputs. Outside of those adjustment, it also has the ability to only process RPM adjustments over a predetermined and configurable boost level.

To contrast, any other reflash software available only controls 500 rpm points, making the ZChip over 5 times the resolution of any other tuning tool in the marketplace.




As stated repeated times already, we have not seen much difference in power with changes in MIVEC mapping. Using larger cams may or MAY NOT affect power with alternate MIVEC mapping.

 

Thank you for the concise answer, that information is very helpful.

 

I had the zchip with the forge mbc set at 24 psi. The chip by itself I felt no performance gains but advertised 50 whp which I thought I could feel. The only slight gains I did feel was when I put on the boost controller and cranked it to 24 psi. So I unplugged the zchip and notice the performance was coming from the mbc not the chip. I'm not against this product just against a product that doesn't perform like advertised. I'm not making any money on bashing zchip just don't want to see anyone else get taken too.

 

It helps if you understand the CAN bus is a true communication path, and not just a collection of incoming signals.

so "piggyback" is not a very good term.

 

The ZChip is a semi-custom tuned module designed for a specific boost level, octane, altitude and climate. Installing the Zchip tuned for 24psi will do very little at stock boost levels as it is designed to interpret specific signal ranges. Properly understanding how to use the product goes a long way. We are available M-F 11-7 or later for any specific questions regarding the proper use of the ZChip.

The ZChip is not a magical module that will gain 50whp at 10psi, 20psi and 30psi. It is a product engineered for use as instructed.
