Flex Fuel Gauge and Boost Control based on Ethanol Content

Hi Everyone,

Say hello to my little friend. He is still in the prototype stages but you kept asking for a gauge to work with our current line of Flex Fuel Kits and here it is. This unit will work with all Delicious Tuning Flex Fuel Kits roaming the marketplace.

[ame="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1DfbygQbBbs"]Flex Fuel Gauge and Something Else... - YouTube[/ame]


The other cool option we are debating on is boost control through the gauge. The feature would be a way of setting up boost control based on ethanol content and the user has full control of those settings. Let us know what you think and if you have any suggestions we are always listening.

Planned release is first quarter 2018.

Happy Holidays!
William Knose

- Since the gauge will be controlling boost based on ethanol content, will this mean that the electronic boost controller signal and power connection will go directly to the gauge instead of plugging into the EVAP connection?

- If the boost controller is still going to be plugged into the EVAP connection then how will the gauge be manipulating the boost? T-ed into the vacuum lines, EBC to gauge then connected to EVAP connector or will the gauge be working off of a racerom map similar to the features on the ecutek bluetooth device?

- Will this be integrated with dynamic system safety system?

**If the boost controller plugs into the gauge only**

- Will the gauge be able to have boost by gear settings and/or boost by rpm settings added?

- If the gauge will not be doing the above and a racerom table is still needed for something like boost by gear or rpm would a 2nd E-Boost Controller still be needed at the EVAP connection?

Sorry for the delay. It is a standalone system and does not need anything else (EcuTeK, RaceROM, etc...) to work correctly. Everything will be controllable from the gauge directly.

Still in the works and getting close. Chip shortages have really slowed development and we had to make a few major revisions to get it to this point.



Currently the gauge will be designed for the following applications.
1. Flex Fuel Input & Output
2. Boost Pressure, Control, and Cut
3. Fuel Pressure
4. Oil Pressure
5. Coolant Pressure
6. Fuel Temperature
7. Oil Temperature
8. Coolant Temperature

The gauge itself incorporates a touch pad interface with no buttons. There will be a selection menu for what gauge you would like to use and how you would like to setup safety features.

Well if you can download our app into Apply Car Play or an Android device that has a Bluetooth connection you should be able to use our app. I have seen plenty of customers get it working on Android, but I have not seen it happen with Apple Car Play yet.
