Designing and Tuning High-Performance Fuel Injection Systems
Anotace
So you've
decided that fuel injection is for you, but want to know more. Many
questions surround what appears to many as more of a black art than
science. Engine tuning used to be the hallowed ground of vehicle
engineers and cutting-edge hot rodders. For years, the carburetor
filled the needs of enthusiasts and provided simple adjustments at the
end of a flat-bladed screwdriver. But today, electronic controls for
engines are the norm. Even the casual enthusiast who actually drives
his favorite hot rod on the streets can easily see the benefit of
increased precision when he fires the car up for the first time each
spring. A properly tuned EFI system rarely needs anything more than the
turn of the key to come to life.
Following
up his best-selling title, Engine Management: Advanced Tuning, author
Greg Banish goes in-depth on the combustion basics of fuel injection as
well as benefits and limitations of standalone. Designing and Tuning
High-Performance Fuel Injection Systems will help you learn useful
formulas, VE equation and airflow estimation, and more. It also covers
setups and calibration, creating VE tables, creating timing maps,
auxiliary output controls, and start to finish calibration examples
with screen shots to document the process. Useful appendixes include a
glossary and a special resource guide with standalone manufacturers and
test equipment manufacturers.
Aftermarket standalone systems are a great way to dial in performance
and reliability. Designing and Tuning High-Performance Fuel Injection
Systems is the book you need to become an expert in this popular
modification.
