$11 or $12P code??

[benk]

I'm building a stroked 5ltr turboed engine for my VR and was wondering which way would be the best way to go with a tune for it? I basicly have 2 options that I can go with...
1. Stick with $11 code and run the electronic auto or
2. Run the $12P code and go back to the hydrolic auto
either way I will be beefing up the auto to handle the extra power

Just wondering what the advantages and disadvantaged with each way?

$11 wont run your turbo (you'll need the right version of kalmaker, and an old dos laptop). $12P is much more capable and if your are fine with the hydrolic auto, then its the simplest and best option.

yeah well I think that solves it not an option really lol
That was the way I was leaning anyway as I run all my other turboed engines with the $12P code. Havent had much to do with the electronic autos so am much comfortable with the hydrolic auto

sorry to be picky but I think you mean hydraulic not hydrolic?

[briney]

is it as simple as changing the valve body and adding a kick down cable ? or are they massively different ?

yeah wasn't much of a speller at school either

not sure how different they are might have to check it out when I next rebuild one but I don't think it will be as easy as just changing the valve bodies over

The grammar police will be scrutinising your posts very carefully from now on

Pretty much the only thing that is interchangeable with the two boxes is the planetry sets,drums,servo,steels,frictions and some of the seals.
