Re: Auto-Blip Install and Instruction Information

My AB has sudden become irregular in when it kicks in. 50% of the time it works just fine, and the other 50% there was no blip. This just started occurring yesterday and was like that all day. Up till now it has worked flawlessly. Anyone else experiencing this? At first I thought it was timing between when I braked and clutched, but that proved not to be the case as the problem occurs when both are applied simultaneously. Doing the quick math and the number of downshifts I did, I am guessing the problem occurred 100 times. No wonder my legs cramp up at times

Yes, I noticed that too...it wasn't working at all then it started kicking in sporadically at Laguna Seca. Now that I'm back at the shop it seems to be working perfectly. Figures.

The leds light up correctly when I press the pedals, even the blip blinks when I engage the clutch while pressing the brake pedal but it does not actually blip it.

Yes, this is exactly what I have been experiencing...the lights indicate everything is working, but no blip. Now today in the shop it seems to be blipping just fine but at the track it wasn't working 90% of the time and the other 10% was a surprise. I read in an earlier post that someone wasn't pushing the clutch in far enough....could this be the problem here? The lights indicate blip tho....so I am cornfuzed.

I had the same problem, it ended up being a bad connector splice to the throttle sensor, I must have redone it a half a dozen times, each time testing the connection which tested fine, plugging it back in just to have it not work. I took the splice connector apart and could see nothing wrong so I finally gave up and soldered the connection. End of problem. I had a sore back for a week after trying to finagle my way around under the dash for half a day!

Time to resurrect this. I am getting ready to do my first track day since installing the Autoblip.

I am using zero delay and about 1/4 on the blip knobs. This is where I have set it for street driving.

Is this a good starting point for the track or should I raise the blip rpm???

 

[Big Black]

I have one and it works flawlessly, but I am a highly skilled installer

I would start at about 1/3 and 1/3 for both, then you may want to raise duration as you develop your Auto Blip "skills"...

 

[VoodooBoss]

I’d start them both at 12:00 and adjust from there. No way you can replicate track conditions on the street.

 

[2012Boss302]

Thanks. I'm looking forward to trying it out....

Other than disconnecting the battery and allowing to sit for a few minutes, is there anything else required to disable the airbags before removing the seat?

 

[TymeSlayer]

The battery was all I disconnected unless you count the connectors to the seat.

Copy that, I remember seeing somewhere (shop manual??) a fuse in the pax kick panel was pulled too. Didn't know if that was necessary, just trying to avoid surprises. Thanks, cheers.

 

[TymeSlayer]

Yeah, I didn't bother with any fuses and no problem. Good idea to remove the seat though, I couldn't imagine trying to install under the dash with it in.

Thank you. What is your review, do you still use your Auto-Blip, and any issues?

 

[TMSBOSS]

I still run autoblip in my Boss. Works great. Be cautious about using it around town. Over reving at a stop sign can be a pain. Mount it where you can get to it easily so you can turn it off.

 

[TymeSlayer]

Like TMS said, it works great and I turn it off when I'm on the street.
Here's where I located mine...

Thanks guys, I appreciate the feedback. Hopefully I'll get it installed this weekend. Cheers

Hello Everyone. Here are some pictures of my install. Looking forward to testing it out at the track...

 

[vetracer]

I've installed Auto Blip on my 2011 Track day Mustang. Easy install and works great. Mustang pedals are not designed for easy heel and toe downshifts. Anything that makes it easier to down shift like guys with DSG transmissions or factory rev match downshifts is an improvement.

Finally got my AB, it was ordered about 5 weeks ago. I will have it installed next week. Found out the inventor/owner of Traction Technologies passed away suddenly about the same time I ordered. Seems he was very much a hands on owner and everything sort of stopped for several weeks.

Sorry to hear that.....
