I have a terminator x and i could not find that type of functionality anywhere when set up with dual port closed loop. the only modifier i found in the advanced stuff is boost target, which didnt help. I set up a table that added 100psi to my target boost when above 50%tps and below 6psi and it didnt do anything helpful. I am not sure how you can use dual port solenoids without using the built in boost control functionality. I know how to do open loop with a single solenoid using a pwm table and all that jazz.
The 3 second comment was in reference to 60-130 mph. That’s on a 255/60 tire. Safe to say there’s a good amount of power management needed for that.

Why not run a real tire and pull less power? Granted I'm biased as I fit a 30x13.50 stock and made room for even more tire over the winter.
Lool oh we have some soft souls in here
He said he switched and said he had "way better control". With literally nothing backing
I'm sorry I'm the mean guy asking for some evidence to explain/back his statement.... But alas just butthurt instead
A grainy pic? You blind?
Top window is actual boost.... And target boost
Bottom pane is base dome pressure and actual dome pressure after the secondary CL controller. A bit over your head... Yes

TermX does make things a bit more difficult I had Holley HP and went to Term X, oddly limited in some ways but gets the job done for a bit cheaper. When you say dual port are you referring to two solenoids? I only run one solenoid. I think air and C02 and all that **** is more trouble than its worth in a lot of cases, very few scenarios actually need to run 45psi on a 3lb spring. But yes you can configure different tables based on triggers, launch off 2 step or not, MPH, etc that trigger PWM output/timing/etc rather than a specific boost level.
i prefer the single 4 port solenoid just from the way its laid out. its similar to how i had my evo configured and it worked great. im not entirely convinced i want to stick with the closed loop stuff. i had a lot of success with open loop bcs dc tables in my evo and may dip my toes into that pool once i get a few other things on the car worked out.
The terminator x thing has been eating at me since i first started the car with it. its clearly limited in a bunch of arbitrary places, and i just havent found the $2200 or whatever for a dominator but in that time ive been slowly figuring out workarounds to my biggest gripes with it. part of switching to the 4 port single solenoid was me completely reconfiguring how my 8 i/o are set up so im a little happier with it for now.
i just wish i had more time with the car, but dont we all.

I'm not hammering on anyone, I just like people to explain why or give evidence of a claim instead of just merely stating
A single solenoid can work phenomenal when sorted, The dual having a reference back to dome makes it easier to accomplish though
I have compressed air on my car and it runs a couple things
Not to get sidetracked but on the 60 to 130 It doesn't matter what speed you start no
I do dig or roll and starts. It doesn't matter where you start as long as you are on the target power /G curve at 60 mph

Where them draggy hits at?
A good friend is running into the 4s with a simple 5.3 and a s300... Stock t56.... and 26" nittos. On plain asphalt. If it had more grunt It would have a problem getting to the low 4s ithout pissing it off.
It's on point 60 to 100 and the tire stuck just like mine through the ship, it just needs the power out the back
don't lie
It's funny how those vipers are touching lower 3s on 18's clicking gears

Clicking is the optimal term as they aren't actually shifting a manual. Majority of the fast Vipers are sequential and not relying on a knucklehead to clap the pedal perfectly. Not to mention having stacks into motec and sensors to get them on down the road. Sure they are cool, but I can't fathom spending close to $200k for an uncomfortable street car, at that point just get a promod, laugh at people running 3.anything and be done with it.
