If you need help with accel dfi.......
If anybody on here needs any help with issues with their DFI or has questions I found a source. email or instant message me for more information if you need help and I can tell you how I did it. My car is like an entirely different beast after getting some assistance with the tune.

I got fed up with the stock 85 ECM and was facing well over $600 for the Bosche burn off module and new MAF and decided the money would be better spent on an upgrade.

I presume you mean MAP! Does one need a new pressure sensor in the inlet manifold? What about tuning? Does one have to buy that also?

Mine is not MAF. Mine is MAP based. I am currently running bank to bank fire with a small cap hei, but next spring will switch over to sequential fire. I need to install a different distributor, or add a cam and crank sensor. The Gen 7 handles all of this. Very versatile system.

You tune this yourself or you can pay a shop with a dyno to tune it for you. The software is not difficult and getting the tuning "close" just takes some time. A wide band O2 sensor is very useful. I did not use the Accel wide band because it was too expensive and went with an Innovate LC-1 instead.

I got the Gen 7 upgrade to 6.5 and now I can use any operating system to tune it and it's USB instead of data port only !
Made all the difference in the world getting the upgrade and they load your tune back in it and make sure it works on a similar vehicle.
It's costly but it allows storing different tunes under different conditions like passing emissions or blown or up to three stages Nitrous !
It even controls my converter ! Nice !
