grisom Posted October 7, 2018 Report Share Posted October 7, 2018 Hello. I am new here. Purchase Force GDI for my Ford Ecoboost engine. 4 cyl DI. It has 60-2 crank trigger wheel and VVT camshaft with 4 teeth. There is no trigger preset for this engine. So will it work with my ECU? I assume I need to chose multi tooth/missing. But what about cam trigger? Cam Level? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted October 7, 2018 Report Share Posted October 7, 2018 There is a very good chance this will match the Holden V6 Ecotec Series II trigger. To be sure we would need a scope trace showing the CAM and crank signals together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grisom Posted December 20, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2018 Hello. Today was a good day as finally I have calibrated my GDI pump on Ford EcoBoost engine with Link Force GDI. So I reached results from this: To this : The major thing that was slowing me down is that GDI pump settings in PC link isn't working in real time. (I didi try 5.6.5 and 5.6.6 firmwares). So first you need to change values then store, switch ignition off-on and then changes will be applied. But still I have some questions regardless of my results: 1. Max. Volume Per Lobe Where this can not be measured, this number can be tuned in real time. Refer to GDI Pump Control Tuning. Cant find in help file where it can be measured. 2. GDI pump control (%) log parameter is always highlighted with red and valued -6% at idle and -10% at high revs. Is it a normal behaviour? Log file attached. Thanks for help!!

Adamw Posted December 21, 2018 Report Share Posted December 21, 2018 Hi Grimson, Unfortunately I got to your log a bit too late today and all the clever people have left the building already with just me left (Christmas holidays start today for most companies in NZ). Im lacking in GDI experience so arent going to be able to answer all of your query. 13 hours ago, grisom said: 1. Max. Volume Per Lobe Where this can not be measured, this number can be tuned in real time. Refer to GDI Pump Control Tuning. Cant find in help file where it can be measured. Usually is it done by measuring the pump piston diameter and stroke, I dont know what strategy is used for "tuning" this setting without physical measurement however if that is what you are asking. 13 hours ago, grisom said: 2. GDI pump control (%) log parameter is always highlighted with red and valued -6% at idle and -10% at high revs. Is it a normal behaviour? I have a few GDI logs on my PC and from what I can see this is normal. It looks like it is a +ve number when rail pressure is below target and -ve when the rail pressure is higher than target. You can stop it from flashing red or orange by going to the parameters screen and adjusting the "Low soft warning value" and "low hard warning value".

grisom Posted January 5, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2019 Adamw, Thanks for reply. I know I need to measure GDI pump Max volume per lobe but the pump itself is a one solid construction, so there is no chance to measure it if only not to brake it. I was hope that it can be measured or set up this parameter experiment way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enrike2520 Posted January 30, 2019 Report Share Posted January 30, 2019 I a 4 lobes ecoboost engine running on Force GDI i can share my tune file so you can compare with wath you have Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bertu Posted February 24, 2019 Report Share Posted February 24, 2019 Hi guys si the timing if the GDI pump is taking place via the cam shaft trigger wheel? Are you obtaining a constant fuel rail pressure? My project is a 2.3 ecoboost 4 lobe engine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fdenes Posted March 20, 2019 Report Share Posted March 20, 2019 Hello grisom and all the others, Can you tell me the bore size of the ecoboost's GDI pump? I'm using this type of pump on a different engine for a development project, but this size isn't available anywhere on the web. On the other hand I cannot measure it cause it's a closed geometry. Or do you have settings for the high pressure pump in the Link ECU? It will really helpful for me. Thanks Denes FARKAS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mapper Posted July 30, 2019 Report Share Posted July 30, 2019 Hi It would be great if you can share you results, regarding high pressure pump, trigger pattern and injector charakterisation. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TechDave Posted August 8, 2019 Report Share Posted August 8, 2019 Trigger Pattern is the Holden Alloytec III Offset -213 I can't remember which cam we synced off, I think intake, exhaust wouldn't sync, something to do with pull up voltages. There are a few flavours of ecoboost cam lobe profile, 3 and 4 lobe, ours was 3 lobe, cam centerline offset was 140. I know from destructive measurements that the pump displacement is 0.254cc/lobe Peak and hold driver 9 and 5. Didn't get too far into deadtime or pump calibration. There's a bug in the pump calibration table, you MUST use all 16 columns. You must power cycle between changes to Pump Cam Centerline. We had it idling away on an engine frame, tracking fuel pressure nicely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
streetbike Posted November 24, 2019 Report Share Posted November 24, 2019 Is there any news for this engine ? I have a mustang 2.3 ecoboost with 4 lobe camshafts and gdi pump. and a starting calibration with the triggers / pump and injectors settings will be a lot usefull for me ! If anybody can help, it will be much appreciated ! thank you all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
