The ECM never sees boost at idle. They way we are jumping the wires we are simply wanting our module to see full boost at idle. In doing this you basically instantly jump to the more aggressive fueling levels. We still spit out what we want the ECM to read so don't worry about that.

Now what I do worry about some is that for everyday driving it might be really touchy and not smooth. I also think that in the right situation you could get a check engine light but, so far that has not happened.I just would hate to take that chance.

This does nothing more than fuel like mad until actual boost is made. Once the boost gets up there the fueling will be the same it always has. SO basically it is just a smoke mod!

I have no idea if this works on the EDGE. I am not sure how they make their fueling decisions? Also remember that fooling their module may not make any difference if they read the bus for data?

I would ask them how they do their fueling and go from there but, I seriously doubt you get much of an answer.

smoke

Mine works great... What happens if you leave it toggled constantly? will it burn excessive fuel or will it mess something up?

Just got done installing the switch on mine and taking a test drive. Immediate indication was notable increased throttle response. I can see how the touchiness could become annoying, especially in the western Washington weather. Of course the smoke on demand was pretty cool. Glad it's a switch to turn off when I don't want to use it.

So Chris, I guess I won't be taking the switch off your hands after all. Thanks for explaining how simple the job was though.

Edited to add: This was super easy to do and for only a couple of $$, you can't beat it.

Mr. Quad

Mr. Quad,
For us that are less mechanically inclined, could you get a pic up of this? Oh ya, and I still need to send in my beta tester commander. Im a little slow!

Hey, did yall ever get the pillar mounts in?


...Also where is the map sensor? I cant remember. We are supposed to wire the switch there, and run it back to the cab?

Just find the dark blue wire and the red wire on the Quad wiring harness. I used t-taps and tapped the wires right by where the connector plugs into the box. Doesn't matter where the MAP sensor is, all the work is done inside the cab.

So I can go buy T-taps at auto zone or something and a switch? then tap it right next to the actual box. T-tap dark blue, t-tap the red, and hook the switch up to both and mount the switch?

I am just not that good at this stuff! Thanks!
