Even More ECU Support
Clearly, one of our greatest strengths is our systems' ability to connect directly to your car or motorcycle's ECU — and therefore record and monitor the ECU data in real time. We currently support more ECU's than anyone in our industry, many more! These ECU connection are often as simple as connecting two wires, or sometimes just one. Over this 2-wire connection streams 10, 20, 30, even up to 100 channels of data, good high-speed data. As most of our customers are racers, we have avoided OBDII communication because it's simply not fast enough. Where we have used a connection at the OBDII port, is with some of the OEM protocols; Mazda, Nissan, Audi, VW, Porsche, and BMW. Here, we simply use the OBDII port to gain easy access to the cars CAN-bus, where we can simply "listen" to the messages flying around the vehicles electronic system, and record the channels we are interested in. While we could develop a OBDII system to communicate with nearly every vehicles diagnostic system, the quality and data rate would be compromised.
Just added ECU support:
Hydra EMS Nemesis
Performance Electronics ECU-1
Magnetti Marelli Toyota A
Nissan 350Z (OEM)
ECU's to soon be supported:
Electromotive TEC³
Hondata KPro
MicroTech Systems
...and more!
