Hey guys, im joining the 00vi group soon =] only thing it is missing is a rpm switch. Is there one you can recomend? which one do you use? i do not want to use a afc controller....I know there are alot of vi threads, and tanaka's or w/e website...but i want feedback from people... thank you ahead of time fellow orgers

 

I have a summit switch. its for sale for the right price lol.

 

I use the summit too. Wiring is 123, have had 0 problems with it so far, going over 1 year.

 

and is the "Summit" ajustable? or how do you ajust it? i read up on it but i still dont understand how to make it work correctly if its for v8 vehicles.

 

you just have to make offsets. I have my set so that my mevi opens at 5400rpm but its set to 3000 rpm and i adjusted the gain.

 

so how would u know? u have to keep messing with it?


lets say i wanted mine to open up at 5000 rpms? what would i set it to?

and you guys are basically saying i should go with the summit one?

 

a green light comes on whenever the switch is activated. adjust the dip switch settings and fine tune with the screw until it turns green at the desired RPM, when you're pressing the gas in neutral.

 

OHH!! that makes sense! 1 last question...were can i find the switch and which one do i get?

i found like a whole thing of them..

(THIER VERY PRICEY!!!)

 

i have a V-afc2 and its great set it to open at 4600-5000k and you can also street tune your car and all buddy V-afc2 is the better route in my opinion

 

Get the SUM-830449. To be honest, you should probably just buy it form kzoshoo. I'm sure he'll be able to beat the ~$50 shipped that you'll be spending if you buy it straight from summit.

 

i was wondering can you use the one w/ the digital read out?

 

i have a summit 40 shipped

 

I hate that about the Summit switch.

 

Harlan FTW

I have had it on mine for years now trouble-free, and have installed many MEVI's, all with Harlans, and everyone else is still happy too.

 

summit. harlan always gave me issues.

 

I never had an issue with my Harlan, but thats just me.

I have my acitvating through my Greddy Emanage Ultimate now. No problems

-matt

 

alot of people say harlan causes trouble.....and although summit is for v8's its not a big deal ajusting it and it will work forever without problems...i think i have my mind set on the summit, just have to get it cheapest possible! =]

 

MSD FTMF! its digital and looks better

 

u ever tracked ur car?

 

tracked it once and been auto-crossing for about 2 years now.

 

I use the VAFC-II and kill two birds with one stone by being able to use it as an RPM switch and as a way to tune the car. I got mine for a really good price on ebay.

 

what did ya run

 

nah track meaning an actual race course, not the strip. haven't dragged it yet although i will probably next wendsday

 

Yes i use that one, I currently have it set at 5,000 RPM with the pulse set to 3 and the white wire is ran directly to the ECU signal on my ECU it's a really nice RPM switch, nice and tiny yet very efficient.

Here is a link to the RPM Switch I use
