So I just picked up this sled, unfortunately the people who owned it did not know any thing about it and I feel the last few owers may have been the same way. So I am trying to get it back in order. Hoping someone may have some knoledge about Impulse nytro kit they would share. also the sled has the pure logic fuel controller on the sled but unhooked and a North west turbo works fuel controller plugged in. Hoping someone has some imput on these controllers.

Sounds like you bought yourself a real project sled!
Lots of good memories from my Super Charged Nytro.

After a few emails and phone calls, turns out the impulse standalone control system has been removed, and is running the turbo works fuel controller on it, so now to dig and see if it still has large injectors etc from the impulse kit. Does any one have first hand info on the purelogic/turbo works, dobeck style controller on a boosted nytro ?

To be honest, they suck. The standalone was the way to go. Since Paul doesn't make them anymore, you would be better off with a xic controller next. You would need to call Neil McLaren about those. My guess is he stopped those too. In that case, I would call the ecu company in Canada that made them. That company makes standalones for airplanes and cars. Their logo is different but the box is the same. I have talked with the owner there about the xic controller. He helpedme understand the controllers limitations. The xic can only control fuel for boost add to a stock displacement and factory head, no porting. If it has a ported head, then your only option is a sstandalone. Lastly, if your engine has a factory setup (plus a forged rotating assembly or a headshim), then you can try to use the others. Derek at attitude industries in Utah sells the dobeck box. He is very knowledgeable about them. If that is the route you go, then you will always be making minor changes to the controller every time you go ride. That is because, those controllers do not accommodate changes in barometric pressure or changes in humidity in the air that happen naturally over the season. That said, if you're reasonable with the boost...10 to 15 psi on a shimmed or low compression engine, then you maybe able to get away with it and enjoy the sled. The problem arises when you start running the sled closer to the edge. If it runs a hair lean and you don't notice, you can detonate the engine and ruin it all together. The more boost you run, the more sensitive the engine is to detonation and catastrophic failure. I hope that helps you. If it was me, I would call Paul Horschel, the xic controller manufacturer, or Derek at attitude to discuss things with them. Good luck.

Here is the company that made the xic controller.

www.sdsefi.com

If you can get the controller, harness, and injectors, then you can find someone on here who can help you setup the tune for it. Worst case, Neil McLaren or boost it can help probably help you get the base map for it.

If forgot to mention, the xic controller runs 60lb/hr bosch giant green injectors as secondary injectors to fuel boost. So you need provisions for them. That is easy to do if you don't have them already. Then your factory computer runs the stock injectors, timing, and everything else.

Did they give you a map to go off? I can give you my map if needed. Also did you get the altitude adjustment in the Xic controller? I am also looking to buy one for my next project

I actually ended up with a used complete system from Chad at cr. Haven't powered the box up as of yet to check how it's set up
