Tuning EMS, Fuel and Ignition Options

[McMark]

I'm installing the beta KitCarlson FI and I'm turning my attention to tuning. I have access to a wide band O2 sensor setup for tuning in the FI part of the setup, but I'm not exactly sure how to optimize the ignition. My initial assumption is to install an EGT gauge. I would think this coupled with knowing the AFR would clue me into the ignition. There are so many factors I can modify that I'm having trouble keeping it all straight. Help me figure out what I need to do to get it well tuned. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif)

Mueller,
The stock advance curve is wasted as soon as the first change is made to the combo. My curve goes up, up, up and then I pull timing away in the upper RPM due to piston speed increases. Dizzy's won't allow that and it really improves power above 5,000 RPM.

Most ofmy engines will be receiving this system as soon as its released. I have 7 of them awating it as we speak. I plan on uploading a page to my site that will have EVERY setting that we use on the dyno along with engine size and a list of the RAT partys used to comprise it. Literally peopkle could keep trying our settings till they find one that is close and then work from it.

The systems that I sell will come pre loaded with a "close" arrangement of setings so the customer can install it easierand tune it as well.

I am well known for scrutenizing things.... Not even i have any issues with this system and thats something that I can't say about many other parts/systems that I try for just a few times.

I know dave and have seen him at my shop working on his piece of electronic magic. The guy is literally a "Brain surgeon' and is remarkable with that soldering iron and laptop. His attention to simplicity, and function is the ONLY reason that I chose to do all this test work and implement the system on my engines.
remember- I'm a die hard carb guy- This system finally showed me what is capable. I literally hate stock FI BUT my 912E is firing stock injectors, and looks like a stock system. This system made me hate the stock system even more!

I have talked to dave about a comprehensive install/tuning VIDEO to include with the system, just like my cooling systems. I have done several videos and can make it happen easily. Hell, since i included the videos with my DTMS I have only had ONE customer call me with any questions. Keep in mind that we have sold 90 of these systems this year- thats pretty damn good for a conversion piece!
