Re: DSMLink, VPC Questions

DSMLink assumes a Karmen MAS. You could use MAFT or VPC to convert from their metering forms to Karmen for use with the DSMLink. The VPC has some tables built in for fueling, you are supposed to run a 550 chip with 550 injectors, but you could use a different chip with different injectors and do some tuning of the gain on it and/or with another unit like a GCC/S-AFC/DSMLink. Normally with DSMLink, you want to be based off of 450cc injectors and then do all the compensations internally with the DSMLink. The way DSMLink handles larger injectors is far superior to how you do it with something like an S-AFC, MAFT or VPC. The VPC is a serious hack of a device though, so you could run into some weird things like the airflow metering maxing out, because the VPC thinks it needs to avoid fuel cut, even though a DSMLink does a better job at that, or just maxing out the VPC map sensor.

GCC is like the old school 5-knob AFC. A lot of people use an S-AFC in conjunction with a VPC, instead of the GCC.
