Have they completed the update/upgrade for use with the factory coils or is the only option the Holley coils? I'm asking in regard to a 25+ psi boost combo.

I dont have an answer to your question, but I bet these guys do:

They're getting it done at 28-30 psi

Anyone?

Just wondering how this setup compares to the BS3 in a solid cammed boosted application.

What exactly do you want to know? Comparing it to BS3 is like comparing an LS PCM to an old chip ECM. There really is no comparison. BS3 software is archaic and cumbersome. The level of expandability is terrible.

The Holley Dominator is just an overall much nicer setup. As far as making power, I would assume you could make just as much power with the Holley as you can the BS3. With time, more people will be running it on the high HP cars.

BS3 had a big head start, and the advantage of who it's creator is. That carried a lot of wight initially. The more people that use the Holley, it will steadily gain more respect. In the grand scheme of things, it is in it's infancy.

LOL, did you even check the link I provided? A solid cammed, TT street car that runs 7s on E85...not what you were looking for?

Did you see the 2 or 3 other threads that those guys have detailing their use of the Holley EFI set up?

He's referring to the issues with factory coils backfeeding the ECM which was documented and Holley was supposed to be correcting. I've been waiting it out as well, but I'm not in a hurry at this point (ie: lots of other stuff to do first).

I currently run the BS3 ls7 system, My buddy just got the Holley dominator kit for his older 383 w/procharger. Like stated above the Holley is a much better system. It has all the same function as the BS3 and more. I am thinking about switching over to it, if I can figure out how to make my racepak dash work with it.

Will be testing new hardware on the LS coil apps very shortly, hardware is done. Just finishing firmware for those changes. After that finishing the boost control changes based on the beta testing.

Hey Sound, so I am about to purchase my Holley Dom set up and the tuner I brought this issue up and he said the stock coils work fine with the Dominator set up. Is this true, do I need to go with Holley Coils or can I run stock? Can't seem to get a straight answer.
Thanks in advance.

Stock coils work fine Naturally Aspirated....
its once you start to see higher cylinder pressures(from FI applications and Large Shot Nitrous Applications) that it has issues.

Well than he doesn't know his **** because this a high boost Turbo application and he said they would be fine. I see there are working on a fix to this problem. No ETA on when it will be done? Are the MSD coils compatible with the Holley system? Found a line on some new ones for less than a set of Holleys.

The MSD ones are junk.

FireCore50 is working on some new coils that they hope will fix the boost issue with the holley. They are going to be a direct replacment for the stock coils. No release date on them yet.

How are the boost controls on the Holley dominator compared to say an AMS-1000 or other high end aftermarket controller?

I'm not going with the MSD's gonna go with Holley Coils, but for the record my friend has MSD coils on his TT Ls powered 69 Camaro making 1200 HP to the rear wheels with not a single problem from the coils. Not exactly what I would describe as "junk"

Talked to Holley this week. No fix yet. They offered me Holley Coils at $100 each and you only need 4. Not too much more then stock. Just went with that. Why wait any longer for $125 bucks difference

that national

where are you going to mount the coils?
