Default BLITZ SBC i-Color boost controller

Is anyone here using this and have a reveiw on it? Pix of it installed? i was on their site but wanted to get real world input/pix installed. the ability to display data together is sweet. im not sure if id use the A/F display, as the harness is more expensive than getting a Innovate A/F guage. but it would help with keeping a sleeper look and not have guages everywhere.

and yes i searched...

I really, really wanted to go this route.
However, the A/F is displayed in BAR...which was a big turnoff for me.
This unit is capable of displaying a variety of items, however, (I am pretty sure) that the A/F sensor takes up the pressure port, which only leaves you the one temperature port available...in other words, you can't display everything on the unit.

YES you CAN display A/F i`ll tell you how, when you check the Blitz website it will tell you:

Note: There are 2 plugs for optional sensors. One is strictly for Temperature and the other is for EITHER Pressure OR A/F. The unit is NOT able to display both Pressure and A/F.

However maybe you forget to read this point:

A/F can be displayed at the AUX port (AF / Pressure Port) or at the external voltage port Data 1 ~3.

External voltage input
It is possible to display, record, and replay by inputting an external voltage of 0-16V up to three channels. It is possible to change the voltage scale from -999 ~9999. It is also possible to arbitrary setup the value. Therefore, it can be used to record the throttle voltage, airflow voltage, water temp and replay for reference as a setting tool. The external voltage input harness is sole separately.

Product name: External voltage input harness
Product number: 15053
Manufacturers suggested price: USD 45.00
Function: It can display external voltage source of 0 ~16V by taking it to the boost controller.

That means you can connect two more additional sensors on top of the Temperature / Pressure / AFR (if connected on the external input) BUT

you should keep your eye on this point:

Optional A/F display function

If the optional A/F amplifier unit is connected, the A/F ratio can be measured and monitored, which can compare with boost or other sources. Thus, the boost setting can be broadened.

I guess it means that if you want the A/F Ratio Graph it won`t be available if you connect it to the External Input Harness.

BUT like what Pilot_Z said this unit will Display the Boost in Bar ONLY it will not show PSI.

That's interesting because the older ID-3 unit that I have will show boost in both bar and PSI.

I`ve checked the PDF file of SBC Color i know its in japanese, they didn`t release a english manual yet, but they should at least mention it there, no signs of PSI, i`ve also asked a couple shops and they confirmed that its in bar only.
