Use the arrow keys to move the cursor between Y and N. Pressing SEL when the cursor is on Y will clear the max
values. Pressing SEL when the cursor is on N takes you to the next screen: Stats: N2O/TPS.



3.3 Stats: N2O/TPS

This menu displays nitrous and TPS information.

N2O PSI MxTP Clr

.

32 240 208 Y

N

.

N2O 32

Maximum fuel adjustment during last nitrous activation (blacked out

during nitrous

activation). This can be cleared manually and is always clear upon next nitrous activation.

This can be cleared manually and is always cleared upon next nitrous activation.

PSI 240

For systems without a N2O pressure regulator (NON in lower right-hand corner of Startup
Screen
), this displays current nitrous tank pressure. For systems using a N2O pressure regulator
(ADJ or FIX in lower right-hand corner of Startup Screen), this shows the maximum nitrous
pressure during the shot, where the pressure is measured after the solenoid valve.


MxTP 208

Maximum throttle position reading since this menu was last cleared or since engine was last
started.

Selecting Y will clear these values. Use any arrow key to select Y or N. Pressing “SEL” takes you to the Main Menu.




VI. EFI Tuning Suggestions

Each Fuel adjustment setting goes from –99 to 127. Positive numbers add fuel and negative numbers subtract fuel. The
Control Box will not prevent a lean burn down! You must take the proper tuning steps the same as if you were tuning a
carburetor.

The maximum is set to 127. This does not mean you have an effective range all the way to 127 – you will likely max out
the injector before this setting is reached. Your usable adjustment range (max value) is dependent on how long the ECU
already has the injector on. This will vary depending on rpm, throttle setting, temps, and can be different from sled to sled
even of the same model. There is no direct relation

Exhaust Gas Temperature gauges can be an effective tuning tool, but they are not a substitute for reading spark plugs and
piston wash and feeling how the engine runs. Use EGTs only as a backup to verify what you see. They can be misleading
under certain conditions and safe readings can vary greatly from engine to engine depending on such things as probe
placement, fuel, timing, pipe design, porting, etc.

Tuning tips:


Important: Find the settings where your motor runs rich before you decide to go lean!

1. Tune with the engine and pipe at operating temperature. The sled’s ECU will make adjustments as the engine

warms up – you might think the engine needs leaner settings then later realize you are too lean once the engine
warms up.


2. Use the Load/Save Map feature to quickly change and compare fuel settings when testing. This can also be

useful for riding under different conditions. For example, changing elevations or temperatures may require
different adjustments if the stock ECU does not compensate properly for your modifications. For drag racing,
you might want to run richer settings for longer distances than you would for short distances.
