Great deal on XFI
- Thread starter Mike Licht
- Start date
Nothing at all to do with product failure,Everything to do with the end result.
I didnt realize i should have ran over and stopped you,I will admit,I would have definetly made the same mistake you did.
I would have still tried to make a pass if it didnt spool correctly.
Just like when i made a run with my balancer wobbling,I made a bad call
and decided to run it out.
Most expensive pass I have ever made. I think I managed a 13 second pass.
I hated to see that happen to a friend fur sure.But i definetly learned from both our mishaps
Id say that statement is still up in the air.
Records have been set using both ecus
Motors have been blow using both ecus
Motors have been blown with both ecu's due to tuning and other issues, how many have blown due to a defective XFI ecu like Teds?
Teds is the only one i have heard of that was the reason for failure.So i guess they XFI shoud be condemded by the world.
But that doesnt mean here hasnt been any caused by other XFI,Big Stuff,Gen 7,Gen 6,etc..........
Maybe somethings about those ecus were never made public,Hmmmmm
I'd say at this point the DQ loss at Norwalk XFI related and the BLOWUP at BPG XFI related, the Big Stuff 3 or a classic FAST or other ECU's would be on my list of "upgrades". I sure hope others read this before making a decision and think about the investment they have and if they wish to wager a bet on their hard earned $$ on my story. I know of one box that went to $Hit recently when it was REFLASHED for the Internal logger option, so my suggestion would be if your car is running good I would not mess with it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I would like to know if there is a potential problem brewing with my ecu if I were running a XFI.
Switched the external logger arm switch to the off position and cycled the key again.
Before that we turned the main power off and back on. My vendor contacted FAST and they were too and told him that it was impossible. We were never able to recreate the situation untill another no start situation happened 300' out from the start line at BPG. :wink:Not condemmed, but the truth will be heard and the company should be accountable for the trouble and loss their customers are put through.

It's funny how you seem as if your memory has failed you.
A: You were at BPG Salem and witnessed EVERYTHING 1st hand, but yet ask questions as if you don't know.
B: You are aware of the specifics that day we went to FAST, again you ask questions as if you don't know.
I really don't get what you are trying to do here.

Some program error that altered the A/F, timing, etc, when there was no change made by the tuner??

XFI= no start and lost race.
I thought that was a feature? Oh yeah, that was just my perspective...

No, I did not have the transbrake creep set up.
I had that set in Salem and it crept 9-inches and red lighted and gave the race away.

My memory has not failed at all. And I did witness EVERYTHING,Even the obvious
B I really didnt hear anything other than you went to F.A.S.T and took Mike with you.Never heard details
Not really trying to get at anything.
Its cool you went Big stuff 3.Im not down playing it.
But you guys talk like you have a ton of expierience with Big Stuff.
Did you get a chance to run it yet?
