Vi-Pec ECU

[Jerryl]

Anyone ever hear of or installed this system?
I realize Fast is the TB after market standard, but been told this is had superior technology, and much easier to tune.
The dynamic CL KR feature looks nice.

Wonder if they have harnesses for the V-sicks and LS apps...$$$?

LS, maybe .. . . V6 probably not.
Caspers can pobably build one if the pinout is supplied (?).

Just talked w/ Chris @ Engine Logic, Houston, TX.
Very nice folks!
It is available w/-w/o an unterminated harness. Can be configured to work w/ v-sicks or LS.
W/o $1600. W/$1850.
Holden in Au uses them. He stated they are light yrs ahead of any of the competition, such as ....Including Motec!
The G4+ will not control a trans.
Tech support 8Am - 6pm, Central time. Or, a call to NZ will get you 6 more hrs of tech help.

Yeah, nice guy, very knowledgeable. I like this feature.

The Link G4 Xtreme ECU is capable of detecting knock by using factory, or after market knock sensors. By applying user configurable ‘time windowing’ techniques and filtering options the Xtreme will determine which cylinder has knock, and the severity of the knock. 3D knock level threshold tables are used to prevent false detection caused by mechanical engine noise.Each individual cylinder can be assigned with a 3D knock ignition trim table. These tables are generally spanned using ‘RPM’ and ‘Load’ as their axis, and zones within these tables are modified dynamically by the ECU upon detection of knock. Timing is retarded on detection of knock in the particular zone, using configurable sensitivity and clamping properties. This all happens within the bounds of microseconds.The G4 Xtreme engine management system can be configured to gradually re-introduce timing advance, at a rate governed by the speed and delay of which the user has specified in the settings when knock is no longer detected.

We have one on our race sled, great system, definitely not light years ahead but excellent quality and interesting features not found on others. We are a dealer

@Mike Licht,
What features are those?

 

[Mike Licht]

the launch and antilag stuff is good, the inputs and outputs are more configuable, the crank and cam sensor stuff is configurable much better to the stock sensors, the staged injector stuff works better too

Any feedback on the dynamic KR features?

 

[Mike Licht]

it works very well it is super fast and accurate but we shut if off after the sled was tuned, working on using the speed sensor for traction control now
