Exclamation FJO AI injection v.1.01 REMOVES boost control !



I always check for the latest and greatest software and firmware on anything, and I just noticed that the current version of FJO water/meth injection software (v.1.01 currently on their site) does NOT support AFR/lean boost cut, nor MAP sensor boost cut (effectively a boost-controller).

The current PDF manual on FJO's site (v.rev. B), also makes not mention of the AFR and MAP boost control anymore.

Additionally, FJO doesn't show the Perrin-style boost controller as one the "parts" for the water/meth injection system.

However, if you go to Alamo Motorsports, they still show the Perrin-style boost controller as an option. Hopefully, if you purchase from Alamo, the AI controller still supports boost control:

I'll be placing a call to FJO ASAP, to find out the scoop.

Hopefully, it was just oversite. Worst, the functions don't work as advertised, so they deleted it rather than giving us a false security.

In short, if you're using this features, I wouldn't update the firmware or the PC software until this cleared up.

I cannot attach the current (rev. B) PDF user manual with no mention of boost control.

However, this screen shot of the new software, show no mention of boost control (old screen-shots WITH boost control will be up soon).

Attached is a excerpt from the Alamo Motorsport website showing "boost control optional".

More to come . . .

This screen-shot of version 1.02 (which is NOT on the FJO website, only v.1.01) clearly shows boost control for both AFR and MAP.

Hopefully, v.1.02 is NOT buggy . . .

Here's a picture of the FJO boost controller vs. the Perrin boost controller.

Per FJO tech support, the FJO website for the water/meth product is out-of-date, including the description of the product, and all the software and manual downloads.

In short, don't install what's currently on the FJO website. Current software is 1.02 (with boost control), and revision C of the manual. Again, this is NOT on their website.

Whew!
