Lambda and back pressure

Recommended Posts

I’ve got this engine running 4 lambda pre turbo(runners) and one set as lambda 5 in the downpipe. I’m using exhaust back pressure on this set up too, is there a way to stop the ecu from calculating the back pressure for lambda 5 as this is not in the pressure zone. Tia

Hmm, good question - im not sure if anyone has raised this point before and we may have over looked a situation like this.  I will talk to the firmware engineers tomorrow to see if we can come up with an idea.

Hi, just a note, the 5th lambda is on analogue and not on can bus yet, if can bus is easier for you then it’s a balenger afr500c(can version) i can connect to can bus if needed, just that we had another lambda that was already to an v so i’ve just used the same wires at the time of installation

In that case your setup will be working correctly as is and needs no changes.  Except I'm not sure how you assigned an analog input to lambda 5.  

FYI, the exhaust pressure compensation is done inside the CAN lambda devices.  The ECU sends calibrated pressure to the CAN lambda, they take it into account in their O2 calculation and send compensated Lambda back to the ECU.  The AFR500 does not have any of this functionality so will always assume exhaust pressure is at sea level atmoshpere.

I didn't know that was being done inside the CAN Lambda :D
