Re: Rover V8
If the DWG is to scale, which it has to be because it is converted to tool path for CNC cutter, then it should be fine for VR sensor provided good alignment.

Re: Frankenso - ECU shield compatible with OEM case
Couple of thoughts… The 40hz noise seems way too low for harmonics, but likely all that logic analyzer can catch (very likely root cause it at a much higher frequency). Guessing you do not have oscilloscope? If you have one, then start probing and you should be able to isolate. Start at power supply...

Re: 1995 Honda Accord - auto, vtec
How you approach crank decoding is to a large extent is hardware dependent. How many timers/counters, at what resolution (16, 20, 24, 32 bit), the higher the resolution the better the granularity. Also on modes of operation, single/double capture, with/without de-bounce filter… * rusEfi is implemen...

Re: 1995 Honda Accord - auto, vtec
V8 is going to be smoother than the 4-cylinder example that was posted. The 4-cylinder has a compression cycle every 180* (degrees), while V8 every 90*, so less torque ripple. While cranking and before engine starts, I tend to look at compression cycle like a pneumatic spring. If you want sequential...

Re: Maybe new rusefi target?
Unless I'm mistaken, they still have not published an application note or example for angle based control. It looks like a nice board, especially for price point. The 20 bit timer resolution is nice and can be cascaded.

Re: Frankenso - ECU shield compatible with OEM case
Correct when I said closes faster was referring to decay time. But base fuel pressure and injector design also factor in heavily. When you start dealing with large injectors, at idle they are nowhere near their linear region, so getting them to close quicker helps. Injector characterization in this ...

Re: GPIO implementation
This is somewhat common in aftermarket. I’ve only seen (w>x) AND (y<z) AND …. AND… You simply create a temporary bit that each expression can set or reset, when done if true turn on output.
I’ve been doing this for some time, allows end user some flexibility.

Keep in mind that how you deal with power enrichment, will to some extent be dictated by your tuning software. Software needs/should know what commanded AFR is in order to derive error.
