Sorry, I missed the notification. What is your question?

ah, went back and read the thread. Yes, we have a beta out that is nearly ready for release. There was some delay in getting the 2-step tuned up on cars that use the fuel injector or ignition coil for RPM input. The current version of the software has a bit of overshoot on the 2-step due to the default values.

I am going to make a new version where the defaults are set correctly. hold on..

Still ignition cut. We are doing ignition cut only on all of our new cars now. We have heard from a number of people who have tried limiters that use fuel cut vs. ignition cut and the ignition cut works better.

We still do fuel and ignition cut on the SRT for legacy reasons. We started like that, and it seems to work a bit better like that on the SRT. There are positives and negatives to both setups on the SRT and we try to explain them to people who ask.

However, what is now is that the new software supports getting an RPM signal from a fuel injector or a coil-on-plug ignition signal, which has allowed us to install the WOT Box on just about everything we have tried. You can also configure the number of cylinders and the clutch and tps polarity, so it is really a universal mod now.

Why do you want to cut fuel? And do you want it just on the no-lift shift or on the 2-step as well?

what about the issue of the box freaking out every 2 months and having to reload the current exe file into it to regain use of it again?

That is really strange. I have never heard of that problem before now. The memory on the WOT Box is rated for 10 years minimum retention, so I don't know where that would come from.

Well, for starters, try the latest software version:
http://www.n2mb.com/wotboxbetasoftware

If it happens with that software, then I will track down the bug. There isn't much reason to track down the bug in the old software. The new software is a complete rewrite, so there is a good chance that it might be fixed anyway.

If you have any feedback about the new software, let me know.

If someone can give me a quick confirmation that it works on your car, then I will make a new thread in our section detailing the new software release.

Lastly, I appologize for not getting on this forum lately. I missed the messages, probably when I was out of the country. If you ever have any questions that aren't being answered here, the best thing to do is email us at support@n2mb.com. We have several people reading that address, so even when one of us is away, it will get read and hopefully responded to!

Thanks,
jon

every higher than average cobalt owner here with the box has had this issue. the two step will hit for a split second, then free rev. the wot shift will hit late. as in after the shift and back on the throttle. my clutch switches are brand new.

i reloaded the software with the most recent update on your site. it worked just fine again. a number of us have had this problem

I'll check out that new software when I get home tonight. Something is up with my clutch switch lead though, I guess that's where my random spark cut was coming from.

Ok, let me know how the new software goes. If you run into it again, email us at support@n2mb.com and we'll try a few things. It may be a bug in our older software. Do you know what version you were running before this? Was it 2.5? Or was it what was originally shipped on the box?

for what its worth, may problem is gone with the updated software... but i also find myself reaching in the cubby hole and turning your box off everytime i drive the car... i wish it was off all the time and a push of the button would turn it on if needed, (like at the track)

for daily driving this thing just gets in the way...

but i also have to admit now that im turbo, it is nice to do a no-lift and have boost drop from 22 to 19psi on a shift were before the car would completely fall on its face in between shifts...

so def a +1 for turbo guys...

i want fuel cut because i've got a rather large turbo out back and she'll respond much better to no fuel w/ hot spark and air Vs tons of unburt fuel and no spark.

on both would be nice, at least the two-step.

I've had mine installed since last summer and I have never once had this happen. Maybe there was a batch of bunk boxes?

^^^ x2 the only problems I have had was when I hover the clutch and it wont disengage the 2 step. Just operator error though.

You guys who have problems all got the box right when it came out didn't you?
