vincent.semesta Posted August 9, 2016 Report Share Posted August 9, 2016 I am new to this forum.I bought EVO 5 coming with LINK ECU.I read from manual (LINK help file) it must install switch to activate launch control.Can I just make big numbers in fuel and ignition (blue square) instead of switch?I see from log file these cells are not touched while decelerate.

Scott Posted August 9, 2016 Report Share Posted August 9, 2016 Hi Vincent,I would not recommend doing this, as the values you have highlighted in blue are from the main fuel and ignition tables, this means those values are always going to be used, regardless of gear or vehicle speed.Scott.

vincent.semesta Posted August 9, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2016 Hi Scott,Thanks for responding.I have tried many times my car never be in blue area unless it is completely stop and I rev engine.I can be in those cells when I rev engine in neutral gear.Is there something wrong with ECU setting?I just want to make turbo spinning faster because of rich fuel and retard timing to launch the car better.Anyway how to setup launch control?Where digital input connected?What "Mode" should be used (Mode 1, Mode 2, Mode 3)?What values should be key in?

Adamw Posted August 10, 2016 Report Share Posted August 10, 2016 Vincent,Trying to get some effect by adjusting the main fuel & Ign maps as you have proposed will not achieve much. With proper setup "two step" or launch control you should be well into positive pressure and not down in the vacuum region that you have highlighted.Since you are 4WD you will probably want to use Mode 2 - this is commonly known as "two step". It is a fixed RPM limiter usually combined with extra fuel and very retarded ign. For this mode you would normally activate it with a switch on the clutch pedal as it must be turned off as soon as you start moving.Settings for this aren't easy to guess and are usually done by trial and error. Unless someone here has already done an evo with very similar turbo/engine setup to yours then you will probably have to play around yourself. You also need to be careful of aggressive limiting if your engine has hydraulic cam followers. Scott 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vincent.semesta Posted August 10, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2016 Hi Scott,From "Activation Control", there is option DI #4.After we learn here and there, DI #4 is speedometer (car speed).Can it be used as "Activation Control"?Let say, when at 0 KPH (at certain RPM) launch control is activated.Problem is where to set 0 KPH to activate?

Scott Posted August 10, 2016 Report Share Posted August 10, 2016 Hi Vincent, the Launch Control Activation Control needs to be an on/off type signal like a switch. It is not suitable to use wheel speed for activation. However, it is possible to use non-driven wheel speed as an axis option on the launch control table (depending on launch mode).Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vincent.semesta Posted August 11, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2016 Hi Scott,I want to use DI #3 as digital input.What is ECU pin number for DI #3 (enclose ECU pinout).Can I use handbrake as digital input? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted August 11, 2016 Report Share Posted August 11, 2016 Hi Vincent,DI 3 is on pin 91. For your vehicle this is a ground, so if you disconnect the ground, and connect a switch instead you can use this. DI 5 on pin 44 would also be an option.Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
