Im not too familiar with the VAFC. I dont know if it would benefit the boosted TLs much because comptech already lowers the vtech from 4700 to 4000rpms. Id like to see a standalone or piggyback that will work with comptechs supercharger, but eliminating the ACM that they use. Something that will lean the fuel out a little and give a few more RPMs.

When we were at e shift i was talking to mike about the e manage ultimate. He was trying to get it to work with the yellow IS. He said he should be able to get it to work with our TLs. You should call him and follow up on it because that would def benefit u Boosted guyz

Yea I might call Nitrotiger and see if we can work something out. I know he is working on something with our wire diagram. I just moved a little closer up north about 20min from nitrotiger. I will call him and see if we can make this happen.

Nobody i know of has got it to work. I havent tried it but if anyone is willing to allow me to wire it up on their car in nj hit me up and we'll see if we can make it work. I have the full wiring diagram for 04 and 05's and have figured out the drive by wire controller and its low voltage to high voltage range (closed throttle to wot) to work for the tps signal since our cars do not have an actual tps sensor. I know all of the aftermarket piggyback systems require a tps voltage reference. I dont know if people havent figured it out that the ecu doesnt recieve the signal directly from the throttle body but from the drive by wire controller and like i said i have figured it out to work with pauls nos drive by wire system. I have been an ase technician for 12 years and specialize in electrical and diagnostics. If anyone would like we can try to get this to work if you would like to try. Reason i am not attempting this to my car is that this is my daily driver and by installing my s/c i have generated enough business to pay for itself and then some. My work is on my race car which is a 91 camaro that i have progressed from a stock 16 sec car to its current state of 9.3x's @ 143 mph. http://home.comcast.net/~ryan97812/CAMARO9.wmv As you can see it is more fun for me to work on that then with my 13 sec TL. Anyone interested give me a shout. If anyone needs to ask about my work you can ask againstallodds1 nitrotiger acuradriver2006 brklynpanman and a few others around the board.

There is no trigger wire I use the nos brand drive by wire controller that uses throttle position (voltage) which is user adjustable and rpm (from injector input) which is also user adjustable. So i set the tps for about 90% and rpm between 4000 and 6600 so that it is not on when the rev limiter is hit. If you still would like a ride give me a shout.

I dont run n20 in my car that was pauls (againstallodds1) and he was running a 50 shot with the s/c. I only have the s/c and cat back. Now my race car that was a 150 shot soon to be 300!!! HAHA maybe take some for a ride in that but i would have to charge admission for it!!

^^^^ Ah, I think the results of the poll were pretty conclusive. NOBODY has tried this yet. Where are you "expecting" to get a wiring diagram for something nobody's tried yet?
