KPRO Boost Control & Lean protect

ok. So I hoped on the standalone boat and got myself a hondata KPRO...finally. No more emangle for me! So now that I have kpro, I want to get every bit out of it I can.

1st. I see there is an optional boost control solenoid. Has anyone used this? I would think controlling boost by the kpro would be the best option. Not to mention by gear and soon to be by rpm!!! Not out yet though...so I read.

2nd. Rufus has a 05 hx wideband 02 sensor for sale to monitor afr's and use kpro's lean protect feature. I have an 02 civic w/ narrow band sensors. Hondata shows how to rewire your 02 sensors for closed loop operation. Well closed loop operation would require some level of afr monitoring would it not? Do you think it would be well worth upgrading to his 02 sensor? Plus I have an AEM Wideband gauge with outputs for most stand alone. Does KPRO have an input for aftermarket widebands? If so cannot use this to monitor lean protect?

Hoping alot of experienced KPRO users can chime in Thanks....

Re: KPRO Boost Control & Lean protect

I know Andyman is running the Hondata EBCS, but he says you're a douche and he won't help you lol.

Also PLX devices makes a wideband gauge that has an input for Kpro... the M-300 Tuner Edition. I also believe Andyman is running a wideband from PLX devices.

Re: KPRO Boost Control & Lean protect

^^^ LOL!

Avery you can get the boost solenoid on eBay for $50 - same one as the AEM one, just not AEM branded.

Dunno about the wideband bit. I'll just wire my PLX one in when I get it.

Yeah, I've been running since the week after it happened, genius. I actually know how to work on cars, uhh, what's a wideband?

And yes, even short shifting on a stock bottom end (or misshifting for that matter), I'll still walk away from your whopping 190 whp.

Mods? There are still mods? I'm sure there will be when I get reported for making people feel dumb, lulz.
