So do these increase the fuel efficiency?

Been running the both Bluespark Pro , now upgraded to pro + boost for the past week . I honestly can say I can not tell the difference and mpg is the same.
i have been running them both on the same setting. So save your dough and just go with the pro.

Interesting. Would think that increasing both boost and rail pressure would make a noticeable difference.

Do the specs of the +boost box indicate a bump in performance compared to the pro box? Maybe safer?

From what I understand, the +boost box add +2-3 lbs of boost depending on which map you're on. I know Greg was running map E8 on the + box...

If you're adding more fuel and not more air, your EGT's are getting higher, faster. On a short burst, you might not feel much of a difference, but on a longer pull, it should take longer for EGT's to get to the defueling point (which seems to be 1450°F)..

You've got that backwards.

More fuel = richer = lower EGT

Would be interesting to see some EGT data logs between the models, just to validate this theory.

Someone (forget who?) posted that they were able to log EGT with a generic bluetooth OBD2 scanner?

That would be me.. The EGT's are definitely kept 'in check' by some DME programming. I guess it's just a matter of how fast you get to that limit! (Which leads me to think that removing all the DPF / EGR / etc. stuff will give you a definite performance boost due to it taking longer to hit a EGT limit)
