• Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

Information on the '08 Husky "race kit"

That is one of the best on the market. Now I use the sensors that come with the racepack.

First off, I only have EFI tuning experience with my car so if my question seems dumb, please bear with me. I am trying to relate it to the husky so I better understand the diffrences with the options I have at hand to increase the performance of my 610.

The unit I use, is a BIG STUFF 3. The system is designed by Meaney, the same guy who invented the original Accel and Fast systems. It is a closed loop system, that uses a heated wide band O2 Sensor, a MAP sensor, Coolant temp, TPS, Timming inputs from the crank trigger and a few other inputs. It is an adaptive system which means it learns based on you inputs as a driver and make small corrections in the fuel and timming tables to adjust accordingly. For my purposes, this is not used, as the car is tuned for max 1/4 performance running about 22 PSI.

So here goes the dumb question.

What simulararities does my bikes EFI have with my car? Can I make changes to the timming and fuel maps? If so what will I need to do that? Can I install a wide band O2? I would really like to keep the O2 sensor but if the EFI system is a simple system, like the speed density systems offered by GM in the late 80's I can understand why the O2 is not a manditory thing.

Thanks and sorry for not doing a search :banghead::banghead::banghead:
 
New slip on muffler
unscrew the O2 sensor
screw in plug that is shown in the pic
Somewhere (I've not done it) use the electrical plug shown in pic to connect to EFI box
That is it - no dealer necessary, goes straight to 'race/open loop' map.

Hi Coffee! Is this correct, no dealer necessary for installation? I have been delaying buying PU kit because then I have to bring it back to the dealer!

Well yes, do what you typed and you will have the power up kit installed. You may or may not need the iBeat software to adjust things cause it seems to vary with the bike, differing opinions on that, seems some do and some don't.

In the grand scheme of things the power up kit is not that expensive so you could try it, and if you did not like it for any reason just take it off. For example if you put it on you thought an iBeat adjustment was necessary then you could take the power up kit off till you can get it to a dealer.

If you really hated it (which I really doubt) just sell it in the classifieds, it ships well.

I haven't had any troubles with my EFI since installing the Arrow pipe and removing the sensor. I did the install myself, but, my dealer(Ferracci) did smooth out the EFI map for me before I ever got the bike. As coffee says, the kit will sell just fine if you don't like it, but I really can't see anyone not liking it!
 
I'm waiting for my power up kit to come in for my 08' SM510. The dealer will be fine tuning it with iBeat, as I understand, that is setting TPS and altering FB1. Has there come to be an excepted, across the board FB1 value which keeps the bike from running too rich or does this vary from bike to bike. I don't think my dealer has lots of expirence with this system. Thanks.
