Gainzy Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 Hi everyone i have been reading up about uprated ht leads and the actuators and thinking what difference can they make to an uprated ecu? I have read that a good ecu such as blitz etc ups the boost to around 1 bar anyways and the ignition also gets mapped correctly aswell, so whats the point with leads and actuator i can't see much difference been gained. Some one please correct me if i am totally wrong. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nastyrash 2003 Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 yep u are totally wrong mate lol, its mainly the noise supression or insulation that matters on plug leads for high rpm ignition frequenceys, plus a low resistance wire allows the current to get to the plug better giving better raise time, and matters more if u running a high kv coil. minamizing the negative affect of errors on spark duration and ultimatly the impact on dwell angle. in other words a much sharper throttle respons. as for the actuator, all the standard 1s do not hold presure very well thy hit peak booste and thn slowly start to drop presure. hope this helps fella chris.

Idrees Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 The ECUs do not adjust the boost level, you will need to turn the boost up with an actuator or boost controller, and the ECU will then fuel it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
