Synopsis

Engine Management: Advanced Tuning explains how the EFI system determines engine operation and how the calibrator can change the controlling parameters to optimize actual engine performance. This book takes engine-tuning techniques to the next level. It is a must have for tuners and calibrators and a valuable resource for anyone who wants to make horsepower with a fuel-injected, electronically controlled engine. As tools for tuning modern engines have become more powerful and sophisticated in recent years, the need for in-depth knowledge of engine management systems and tuning techniques has grown. Tuning engines can be a mysterious art, as all engines need a precise balance of fuel, air, and timing in order to reach their true performance potential. Author Greg Banish is a calibration engineer with extensive aftermarket performance calibration experience. With over a thousand unique calibrations performed over five years, he has worked with enthusiasts and OEMs alike to improve the performance and driving behavior of a wide range of vehicles. The book contains detailed equations, graphs, and illustrations. Also included are valuable and practical examples, including real-world examples based upon the author's experience that will help more advanced readers apply this new information to situations that are commonly seen during calibration. With 128 pages, 200 colour photos.
