Excellent reply.
Links have deadlock issues, too, BTW. I know a guy who was using one in his twin turbo 6 cylinder high performance plane, and it nearly killed his pilot and damaged quite a lot of carbon fibre in the belly when it came down dead stick.
I can give you DBW for free, but I've not had my hands on a true VVT engine to play around with that, yet. It's an easy problem to solve, though. Trivial, really. And our tuning software is the absolute worst of the bunch, possibly bar none. Working on that...
Amen on the MS3X sentiments
Hackity hack. And the licensing/feature tricks ah la motec, too. Yuck.
I don't see on-board lambda as a plus, rather the opposite. It's popular to add that as a feature, but you're then stuck using a particular implementation of something that's quite easy to get wrong, really important, and may not be the best choice.
Aside from all of that, I didn't quite get clear what you needed:
- Quad VVT, got it.
- DBW you need, but two, or one? Excuse me for not reading the rest of the thread!
- Custom trigger patterns? Why? What? Details? Curious!
I love writing decoders, they're the most fun bits of code to write IMO. Wise to not bank on too much of J&K's time these days, though.
Trick question: Which one of your friends has run mine?
Only teasing but the statement was a bit bold, to say the least.
And then I went to look at the link website and I got this:
The owner of
www.linkecu.com has configured their website improperly. To protect your information from being stolen, Firefox has not connected to this website.
Because they don't use SSL and play strange redirect games. Ahh well, can't win em all.
The thunder box certainly is pretty extensively equipt. Should do nicely. Pretty much everyone here in NZ runs Link stuff on their cars and most are fairly happy. Nothing's without a few warts, though.
