ECU remapping finalized to the performance enhancement and to the optimization of the fuel economy.
Actually there are 2 main reasons for which the Factory ECU are not performing so good as a tuned one:
One of those are the environmental controls, the limitations applied to the standard ECU’s to contain the engine generated pullutions are many. For racing applications they can be removed, allowing better performances and in many cases also improving fuel economy (oppositely of what people thinks a leaner and more advanced mixture generates more Nox than a richer and less advanced one).
The second reason stayes on the variety of fuel supplied around the world, The engineers which are involved on the development of the software should keep in mind that those vehicles has to run using fuel with different octanes and different flame speed, but on a tuned vehicle you can reprogram the ECU with values optimized for a specific fuel type, obviously after that, the use of poor quality fuel it’s absolutely forbidden in full load conditions.
Development of electrical engine harnesses combined with the use of stand alone Race ECU’s
Racing applications may require features not available on some stock ECU’s , like :
- Launch control,
- Flat shift system,
- anti lag system,
- auto rev-match,
- switchable maps,
Depending from the racing requirements and the characteristiques of the vehicle it will be suggested the use of a specific ECU.
The experience gained true the years allowed a deeper knowledge of the majority race ECU’s like:
Link , Vipec, Autronic, Hydra, Pectel, Haltech , AEM, Gems, HKS, Greddy, Turboxs, Microtec, Motec, ecc
ZOD offer’s to his client a different level of tuning, in addition to the parts already existing on the market, we offer custom parts, those are realized from the top parts supplier around the world upon our specific design, afterwards the parts are superficially treated using the most advanced techniques (DLC, PVD, hard anodizing, superfinishing, solid lubrification deposits ecc) In the end all the parts are inspected, balanced, polished and blue printed prior assembling.
Design and construction of race cars, subsequent assistance and telemetry on track with the aim of the overall performance improvement and the personalization of the setup according to the pilot driving style.
Thanks to the experience achieved during several years of telemetry assistance, Zod follows the client not only on the development of the race car, but also during track testes and races, creating a personal setup of the car on all his parts: ecu mapping and adjusting in track condition, gear ratios, differential adjustments, suspensions adjustments, and geometry setup
