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.
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.
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.
