Control devices of the engine

At the present stage of scientific development, tuning engines reached the level of digital electronics. Fast and the Furious electronics motor racing begins with a different supervisors and ends with the introduction of chip-elekroniki. What are the control devices of the engine there, and what needs replacement and upgrading of the electronics that monitors and controls the motor? To increase the capacity of the engine must of all, control the composition of the fuel mixture. For such a purpose prescribed by the Controller of fuel injection, or as it is popularly called "ocean» Fuel Controller. Such controllers are manufactured by companies such as: Greddy, Apexi, HKS, Jet, Hypertec, Split Second. Pleasure to have his car so the controller will cost you from 200 to 1000 dollars. Depending on the model, this device is partially or completely wedged in the work of the fuel supply system, in some cases there is a replacement unit injection. Installed a new controller adjusts the flow of fuel mixture for different types: L, FI, LH-Jetronic, etc. In some cases, a modernization of the whole fuel supply system, thus replacing the pump nozzle to the more functional, in that case put a more powerful fuel pressure regulator, what further need to shell out between 1000 and 2000 dollars. Comptroller of fuel is helping to change the injection time in order to monitor the proper supply of fuel mixture. Sometimes you have to replace the ignition system, the more suitable for a tuning engine. In such cases, set the digital controller plugs, they are usually manufactured by: Crane, Haltech, Electromotive, HKS, MSD, MoTeC, Wolf EMS, etc. The price range they vary from 200 to 700 dollars. Controllers that control the ignition, let you change the duration of the spark ignition timing, power level, in some cases even the number of sparks for one plug. With the installation of the controller you will be replaced by a serial-type ignition switch DLI, ESA, EEC, ESC, or completely mechanical timer. To one of the varieties of chip-tuning may include re-flash control units. Regular ECU (electronic control unit) was replaced by one in which a chip. It may change the motherboard, which are combined with new software. In some cases, intervention in the controller for further reprogramming, it depends on the manufacturer's model. A controller that controls the motor, significantly increases its capacity, for example, to Nissan 350Z Twin Turbo engine power increased from 280 to 350 hp Algorithm, for which the funds are received the data, allows almost the full potential of the engine. The new program ECU (Electronic Control Unit), enables the delivery of fuel, the optimum ignition and air pressure. The system thus laid the new parameters that provide reliable operation of the engine and let a tougher regime. This regime is ensured by more boost pressure and high speed, thereby improving the dynamic performance is achieved by the engine. Changing the block, you gain time, since it takes about half an hour to install the chip tuning you spend a couple of hours, but in order to reprogram the old need to order a few days. Controllers and ECU for racing cars. The most advanced option is to install racing "brains". Such systems can be recommended for a modern engine tuning "under Sports, or if you like to customize a standard motor to achieve their best results. Such cross-ECM produced in the company Apexi, AEM, Edelbrock, Federal Mogul, Electromotive, Haltech, Link ECU, HKS, MoTeCUnichip,, Skunk2, Wolf EMS ... Not expensive complexes will cost you about $ 1200, prices for luxury complexes may reach 20 000 $. Expensive systems are often installed on a Formula 1 car. After installing racing controllers, the motor will work exactly as you wish. Such controllers are installed only in the case when all the standard features of serial ECU has already been exhausted. The programmable ECU allows you to modify the algorithm of the engine on the go. You can change the work of the injection and ignition, and also to vary the air pressure fazovraschenie camshaft and an additional control system NOS. ECU takes care of all the functions that must exercise control over the engine: warm engine idling speed, an extra fuel pump, the inclusion of the cooling fan, etc. In general, the racing ECU can control all functions and systems of the engine. In such a system includes the computer itself, the various sensors of the system, software and connection cable. Devices that monitor engine performance and condition. Electronic afterburning engine can not be accomplished without the instruments and indicators that will monitor the condition of the engine after tuning. Nuances that must be managed in a huge amount. This requires tools that measure the temperatures of engine oil, fuel pressure, the pressure in the oil system, exhaust temperature, boost pressure, were also measured vacuum, the intake air temperature, knock sensor, the instrument control system nitros, ammeter, voltmeter, an indicator mixture composition and, of course, watches. Owners happy to supplement his iron horse devices that monitor the slightest change in his work. Taken to control the motor, only by the tachometer. However, for a full understanding of his work can be installed in the dashboard of a couple of sensors, measuring 50 mm. These devices make it possible to feel your life is a tuning motor.
