Default Hi-Res code = ohmymotherfuckinggodamazing

I cant believe I didnt convert sooner.....The thing idles 460's perfectly at like 15.0 afr and the o2 gauge stays almost dead nuts on all the time instead of jumping around like usual.

Thanks, 10g and nothing so far. The thing seriously sounds as clean as stock.

Hi-res is the best thing that ever happened to MSNSE. Instead of idling 550s at 11.8:1 I can now Idle at 13-13.5:1.

You don't need it if you're not having issues. It is recommended to eliminate tach spikes with the hi-res code though. It is also good for anyone having any sort of weird tach reading just because

Maybe you should stop triple posting Scott and just man up and isntall it. Then after you test it install it on my megasquirt.

+1 that is about where my idle mixture is at with 550cc RX-7 injectors and hi-res.

If your injector pulsewidth gauge shows "1.7" instead of "1.745", you aren't running HiRes.

also: If you haven't installed HiRes, you're not running HiRes.

Use the same .msq, same megatune, same MLV.

The main benefit (as explained to me by Jerry) is that the HR code can add and subtract fuel in smaller increments than the regular code.

yes. the advtanage is the PW.

like koto said above. you hi-res removes a few things form teh sandard extra code to be able to control injectors to the .000ms. this gives you tons of extra control.

for example, i have yet to install it. i idle at 1.7. sometimes it fights between 1.7 and 1.8, this causes a slightly lumpy idle. When I give it the ability to idle at 1.758, it should be much smoooooother.

this is also great for larger injectors when the difference between 1.7 and 1.8 is a whole lot of fuel.

alright, so i just went out and did the upgrade. I also installed my 10000uF cap for my cops. I had to lean my map throughout, but all in all it idles smoother and it seems to drive smoother. for example, with my 6-puck disc im still a tad rough from a get go, seems that issue is gone, its so much smoother into speed that im much better at much launches.

What are the downsides to Hi-Res on a 2.2 board? It mentioned in the docs I read no flyback control, but I assume since flyback is an external board for the 2.2 that wouldn't apply to me anyway.. I don't plan on using low-z injectors anytime soon but am very interested in attempting hi-res. Any other functions or I/Os removed with this code?
