Default INNOVATE A/F FOR UTEC/ Questions

Im trying to learn about the UTEC as I have little knowledge about it....I understand that its a system that takes complete control of A/F and timing under boost but have these questions.....

1. If my A/F is great from a Turbonetics reflash should the UTEC be used in conjunction with my current flash....

2. can the Innovate LC-1 be used to feed this O2 signal.....

3. how and where does this MAP sensor work/ be placed....

Thank you for any responses....

Well if you AFR is fine with the reflash now you can use the UTEC is a variety of ways.

1) You can use the UTEC to lock in your timing curve and give you knock detection. So you don't have to use the UTEC's fuelling modes. I don't recommend this with Z's MAF sensor being above 90% capacity in a FI application.

2) You can use the UTEC to lock in your timing and to give you a consistent AFR using vs. your boost pressure. In the Z's case is more reliable since you have some sort of load reference beyond a maxxed MAF sensor. This is best suited for FI, I wouldn't run it any other way.

The UTEC will not accept another wideband 02 sensor. It can only be used with our Tuner Products.

The MAP sensor should be connected to your intake manifold on a +/- manifold source. Essentially it should be connected just like a boost gauge.
