Welcome to theworld of posting from ur cell phone. Its miracle enough getting a message written on its own. Lol.

Asking for grammar edits is to much lol

I understand and I think it is pretty obvious that I don't expect perfection or anything close to it. Hell, if I did I wouldn't have time for anything but playing English teacher, which is so not my day job.
Seriously, it's a forum, no one is getting graded here, but would it kill anyone to try and keep it within reason?
I understand grammar going out the window for the sake of expediency, but most smart phones have spell checker these days. How hard is it to come close?
Sorry!

Well gents.... we have time on a Dyno-Jet booked for tomorrow. Lets see what this can do on a more standardized dyno!

[Urmyson]

Does anyone who is testing the ESC have any mods like headers or unichip? I've been wondering if headers would make a big boost power wise. I'm also thinking about buying a unichip and want to know if it would line up good with the ESC.

Thanks

Nobody has used unichip yet. Only brz edit and ecutek.

I'm very interested in seeing what this will do with a header. We have the low end covered with the ESC but something that targets the top end may be super beneficial. Hell something that helps the low end will probably help as well.

I'm am heavily contemplating a header at the moment, Fenton and I are both dyno tuned so that better than uni Chip already, I have also have a header back exhuast

How about this header?

All,

I've been hacking on a fancier voltage display for Rob's full-throttle supercharger. It's working now on a protoboard and needs to be consolidated into a pair of project boxes, but I'm pretty pleased with how it's turning out.

I will be posting the schematics, bill of materials, and microcontroller source code on Github as soon as the git history won't make me look foolish as I remember what 2kB of RAM really means.

Features (so far):

• Shows 64 seconds of historical voltage readings as a scrolling graph
• Records temperature from two probes, one for the controller and one for the compressor
• Logs timestamp, voltage, temp1 and temp2 to a CSV file on an SD card
• Real time clock for logging to the SD card
• Drives a relay to enable system when accessory is turned on
• Daylight readable OLED display
• Display connected via standard Cat5 cable to enable remote mounting

Here's a brief video showing the display in action with a sine-function voltage source rather than the real batteries.

[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6hH_JmlWqPI"]Phantom Full Throttle Supercharger Advanced Display, Prototype - YouTube[/ame]

The system is based right now on an Arduino Uno (Atmega328) with Adafruit's Logging Shield and a Monochrome 0.96" 128x64 OLED graphic display. The temperature probes are simple TMP36 sensors, but I have to change those to 1-wire digital probes as the TMP36s do not behave well on the required length of cable with all the EMI from the ignition system. The relay is a standard 5-30V DPDT relay I had hanging around; it's driven by a 2N3904 transistor bringing the 12V accessory to its coil.

Right now I've carved out about as much functionality as I can fit into the Atmega328; color and larger displays are possible, but are going to be difficult as there's about 300 bytes of RAM available to the stack at present, which is getting close to limits, and I'm out of EEPROM with these nice fonts.

I don't get a lot of time to work on the system, and I'm sure at least one of you will want to build one of these yourself; please be patient. I really will get all the information together; right now the Fritzing diagrams are out-of-date with what is really on the protoboard, so they need updating.

Thanks to Rob for getting me the design details and answering all my pointed questions while still handling everything else!

@Pug you sir ROCK!

[Toma]

Wow.... man. The skill and talent of some guys blows me away.

Nice work!

yea what the hell is FFS? All i know is LOL and STFU

[NYCsubaruBRZ]

so how many cars (brz, frs, 86) are fitted with the electric supercharger?

how close are you to making the kit available?

hopefully its here in the next couple of months

For fucks sake, are you serious... Lol old people :happy0180:

[NYCsubaruBRZ]

no need to curse about it....
so what does it mean anyway? what is FFS? is that a new type of FRS?

im an old fuck what can i say? i dont know much about this internet box here in front of me. but i do like that pic of you and your bitch pullin that wheelie. thats a nice chopper there man how many miles to the gallon on that hog!? i got about 4 years to live if im lucky. then im dead... every day i shit my pants, i have heart palputations (i dont have time to learn the correct spelling) and i gotta wear diapers like my 14 year old grandson who wets his bed. i live at the nursing home and they only let me out to drive my new car. i can only see out my left eye and my license was revoked 10 years ago but its the only bit of freedom that i have left. i made a deal with the head guy over there and he lets me out at night when the coast is clear if i let him fuck my daughter once a month. its a pretty good thing we got goin on over there. my daughter doesnt mind it either because her marriage is falling apart so she enjoys it. he just lets me out the back door and i give him my whore. it really works out for all of us. its very nice that some people are considerate of the elderly these days when gass is 4 dollars a gallon. and we have color tv and cds players. my day we would throw rocks at each others ears until we could hear music. i remember back in my day when you could go to the gas station and for a nickle the guy would wax your car, fill up the car with gas, fluff your driver seat, and let you slap his wife in the face if you needed to get out your anger. those were the days. a man could be a man. a woman was your doormat. steak had more meat in it. and you could get everything you needed with a nickle. but dont get me wrong. i worked all week for that nickle and thats why i was top dog. they called me Top Cat. and this was before these silly cartoon tv shows like that one about that cat who was on top of the world. so i was the top cat... the big dog.... and i used to throw nickles and make it rain on all the bitches in the poodle skirts. they wanted the ****. cause they knew i had another roll of niclkes on me. anyway what im trying to say here is.....


















that was a joke BTW... oh i know that one 2. lol Bitches Twist Words right?
Ok so i didnt know. shoot me. and BTW im 24
