Re: Frankenso injector drivers

Would hate to overheat those drivers causing your injectors to intermittently stop working and taking your engine into lean heaven. Lots of Rice tax on a maita engine. I think it would be a better idea to cut a hole in the case or 3dprint a new cover. and slap a fan pointing at the board. Putting a ...

Re: 3D printing ECU case - cost?

Not much to see - getting the shape right, waiting for new revision of brain board and tall reset button from China. We kind of should have matched the discovery reset button locaion on the brain board but guess it's a bit too late. You could just drill a hole and print an extension piece for the c...

Re: Firmware developent status

Could it be beneficial to just connect threw an FTDI or similar interface chip?
The PL chinesium brand can be had for pennies and it is a solid serial to usb adapter/chip.

Re: Firmware developent status

Is there a way to disable or pause the logging function. I was looking around and saw in the output folder a few logs taking up GIGS!. Maybe they can be optimized?(compressed) Also I like the console. But, it needs a serious diet. soo many gauges and images that do not square up when the window is r...

Re: I don't want any trouble, BUT speeduino

I hope he didnt join cause he took it as if we were trying to rag on him or his board.

I like it, and to be honest no other ems is as accessible.
I would most likely be running a speeduino before rus just cause its so much easier to get it going. Arduino mega can be had for less than 5 euro.

Re: Miata NA 1990, 1.6L stock #21

Is it possible to just have the mcu try to compute a new crc or reload the configuration if it failed? or maybe a hardware reset from software.
Perhaps external memory is needed to store these base configs.

Re: anyone managed a straightforward wideband diy??

It depends on the goals. Your engine gets damaged with things like knock. lean operation, or detonation. AFR is really either for emissions, or for a dirty way of tuning power with out a DYNO. I understand that real race cars do not have WO2's, as it's an air flow restriction. They instead rely on ...

Wideband O2 Solutions?

I think we can all agree, at the end of the day AFR information is mandatory. I understand that AEM's wideband solution is the golden standard, But does it have to be that way?

Maybe its not all that bad if they throw in another one, so they get full control of all injectors.

I will buy a speeduino once they have a miata pnp board I am curious to compare. As for pricing I'd say there is no $100 way since wbo alone is $150.
