Default Big Stuff 3 ECU+ boost= awsome

Ran my 6.0 turbo with the new gen 3 Big Stuff controller on the dyno to check out the new controller.
It plugs into ALL gen 3 sensors with no adapters! (FINALLY)
Direct to crank pick up.
Direct to COILS!- Chose your firing order with laptop!
Injector timing adjustable based on rpm!
Same box will also run auto trans function.
Auto scale of tps and boost on fuel map.
Also made 1050 ft lbs with ls1 coils...not truck coils! (truck coils also worked)
This box will make many people very happy.....
Kurt

i was looking into these before pickingup the dfi. which also plugs directly in but has an ls1 ignition box and a wideband box outside of the ecm.

after i couldnt find them for sale anywhere i kinda had to give up.. guess i was looking in the wrong place.

Not a FAST part.
FAST was designed by John Meaney in the 90's
John, Leo and Joe Meaney equal the 3 brothers who started DFI(accel) in the 80's
Big Stuff 3= The Meaney brothers...There back, prepare to feed your racing Demon's
Kurt
PS "NO EXTERNAL BOXES" (had to repeat this)
data recorder= inside
trans controller= inside
coil drivers= inside
boost controller= inside
air fuel brick= inside
Running your gen 3 with one box.....PRICELESS!!

Well how about some more info on this
When will it be available to the general public and at what Price point are we looking at
There has to be a competitve unit in the market at a lower price
I'm sure if someone built an ecu controller at the $1500 range they would sell many many units

Worked nice eh Kurt?

Sounds nice. Will Meany be making the boxes himself or will he be able to handle volume?

GM SKI, most aftermarket ecu's are north of $2000 with everything. Most are around $2500. My FAST setup ends up around $2600 I think.

He will be able to handle volume. He will test each box before it goes.
Not sure what all the options will cost, but all the bells and whistles will be under 2400 without trans controller. Trans controller will add 300.

Couple of questions;

Does this have wideband inputs for AFR control?

What good would a boost controller do for a blower car?

Is the trans option something that needs to be bought up front or can it be added on later. Not that I'm thinking of switching side, but I've thrown around the idea of getting a TH400 on the side to run for a few months, but the T56 ould definitely be the main tranny. Just wondering if this system would allow you to swap in and out.

Does a system like this work with the different impedance injectors?

Sequential or bank to bank?

WB input?

Would it work on a c5 with fly by wire?

1. comes with wideband built in for live air fuel corr.
2.boost controller would only work when you have more power than the track or your tires can take.
3.The trans controll box has a different design with wire harnesses pluging into both ends. If you buy the trans control box you can run without it. You only need this controller for a electronic trans, 4l60e or 4l80e. You don't need a controller for a turbo 350, 400 or powerglide.
4. The high and low impedance injectors are both compatible.
