Whos running a check valve with the Hahn setup
Friday, May 26, 2006 7:29 AM
I was curious who is running a check valve on their FMU setup with the hahn ecotec setup. I know I was told you didnt need to run it but at the same time im just curious. I have consistent 11.9-12.5 a/f ratios with 7-8 lbs of boost.

I am not running the check valve. Their tech guy said not to run it. So are those good a/f ratios for you? That is about the same boost I see. My wideband should be here Tuesday and I was just hoping for some good numbers to aim for.

No checkvalve here, and everything runs good @ 16psi

I ran the check valve on my FMU on my custom setup. If you read up you'll see why it really should be on there.

I didn't run a check valve on the map sensor though. That check valve is for pussies.

No check valve here....and I think I've got more mileage and racing passes on my car than anyone else with the kit, at least among those on this site. Never had a need for it and never even considered using it.

Just because you think you're better than everybody doesn't give you the right to stomp on my parade like that you Hahn-licking B****.

WOW....Now that is just plain stupid. Saying that by posting a reply in an attempt to help that I am trying to be better than everyone else. Guess I'll just stop helping...that make you happy?

I have never heard of running a check valve on a FMU. I have heard of it for the map sensor. I knew of a 2002 Ecotec that had to run a check valve of the ECU would freak, but most do not. Why would you run one on the FMU?

I would imagine (swingin ni the air) if you realive some of the boost preesure from the fmu then it will see less boost. this will in turn give less pressure to the injecotrs. It's like a cheap way of tuning.

Get a adjustable FMU.
