Turbo boost control with kpro

[rapid]

Is there any turbo boost control system on kpro like aem EMS? Or we can control the westegate with an other system?(not on ecu)

K-manager has no boosting control. It can limit a boost spike, but not control boost. To control the boost you will need a boost controller.

If the K pro can limit boost spike, then how is this done? have noticed that on turbo cars, say for instance, a subaru, there is a pressure switch linked to the Ecu, that detects overboost and either stops the car boosting, or cuts fuel. With a K series ecu, modified or not, there is no pressure switch, so how is this done?



Were currently putting a t28 internal wastegate kit on a Civic type R,
and expect to have this problem

I have a Greddy turbo kit on a RSX. The Map Sensor that read engine load see the spike and cuts fuel or spark (it cuts one of the two not sure whice one).

Does this mean no splicing then? and the kpro uses the current wiring already in place to detect boost spike?

Yes sire, the only wiring I did was to install a 3bar map sensor to read over 11psi.

Now am really confused!

So you installed a 3 bar map sensor in place of the standard map sensor? where exactly on the engine would that go? and do u recommend any particular brand?

Sorry, never done boost b4, first project!

The Stock Map read up 11 psi (more like 10.4) So for the ECU to work right and for you to use its safe graud then it needs to know what it is working with. If you map only reads 1o.4psi then it can not stop a boost spike of 13psi. So I installed a GM 3-bar map that can read up to 28psi.
