Haltech Platinum Sports now with RX-8 Support!!
1 Attachment(s)
Well its here, we're in the beta stages of the new ECU Manager 1.08 software and Renesis trigger support has been finally added to the mix!
The Sport ECUs allow for far more control over the whole engine operation under all conditions. Control of the different solenoids for the auxiliary intake port butterfiles, AND preliminary tests have also been done controlling the Auxiliary Ports on the engine! I already have diagrams available for the installation in parallel with the stock ECU, and the guys at Mazdatrix have been controlling their RX-8 race car with a Sprint RE unit. They were experiencing some issues, but it was all corrected and the car runs great now. The Sport 1000 and 2000 will now be able to give the user a full stand alone ECU to take full control over the engine's parameters. Here's a little preview just to wet the lips. Expect full product release within the next couple of weeks! |

Hey guys, i wanted to share this wiring schematic for the Sport ECU installation to the Renesis engine in the RX-8.
If anybody has any question please dont hesitate to ask. |
Looks good...does the Haltech affect the resistance from the temp sensors? When I wired mine like that I had problems with the stock ECU seeing the wrong temps...caused all kinds of strange fan and other stock ECU glitches
Will be interested in the Haltech settings for the logic part of the APV control |
So, you guys are just "ganging" the P2 and secondary injectors together?
|
One of my least favorite things....can only handle one stage of injectors
Could wire them to a relay and turn the power on separately..but still not great |

Will Haltech offer a plug and play harness? Otherwise Boomslang sells an extension harness for $169 shipped if you don't want to cut the factory harness.
Also, the Sport Haltech cannot command the electronic throttle? Also does this support separate asynchronous (batch fired) tip-in fuel like the factory PCM? |
if u run Haltech Platinum would u still have to run with the maf sensor
|
The "accelerator pump" function works quite well...it allows adjustling both syncronous and assynchronus pulses based on a number of variables...
The DBW thing would be nice..but tends to be in ECU's at about 2X the pricepoint :( or higher I would love a way to stage the injectors without resorting to a relay......failure would be catastrophic with the area the fuel would be added into I'll be happy with a rock solid trigger :) |
Plug-and-Play patch loom is only available for FC3S Rx-7. I am downloading the new software for the Platinum models. I have the old Halwin for the E6X.

Cut here, splice there, insulate this...:dunno: What for?
Adaptronic and MicroTech both offer a true plug and play EMS for the RX8. Though the Adaptronic unit is not perfect either (P1 & P2 are batched together), when used in conjunction with an AP you can control EVERYTHING (fuel, ign,intake solenoids/valves,OMP,fans,etc.etc.) without cutting, splicing, insulating anything. Anyways, just food for thought, this unit should be released as a true plug and play IMO to compete with the AP and/or Adaptronic unit, or even better, be released with 6 injector drivers to give it the edge over the Adaptronic at least. (pictured below: Adaptronic e420c Plug and Play EMS for the RX8) https://www.rx8club.com/picture.php?...ictureid=18204 |
I like the software for the Sport models. It looks like a .net application. It's much prettier than the old Halwin software and has a more modern interface. The asynchronous tip-in option is nice. AEM EMS can't do that (although AEM is not currently viable on an Rx-8).
I'm still not a fan of MAP-based injector staging though. |

As opposed to what? MAP/ Load....same snizzle really ;) |

From what i can gather on the staged injector ganging up, it shouldnt be too much of a problem, as long as the rest of the auxiliary ports get opened along with their corresponding injector counterparts. I have an idea about controlling one of the stages separate from the main table, not having to double up on injectors per output, i will look into it and report back on that.

As work on cars moves along we'll have more updates and options to incorporate.

Thanks guys for all the feedback, its greatly appreciated, i hope we can get some systems out there for the RX8 community soon! Keep it coming! |

Well how do you propose to stage the injectors? Using RPM or Throttle? Load is still the best option, or a combination of all of them.

That would be the best way. |
Why? Duty cycle is directly related to Pulsewidth.....both are related to some type of load measurement that the ECU uses to determine fueling
Is there some reason it would be easier to stage with duty cycle? Other than needing to make sure you stay in a proper range for the injector to function properly?? |
Duty cycle IS pulse-width.
When the P1 got to 85%, I want to see the PCM to start lowering the PW of them and start bringing the P2/SEC on at the same slope. |
That is much less of a problem on anything but the stock ECU :)

^ that's not duty cycle ;)
and there are no latency corrections for the different injectors..... |

Now, about your comment MM, the Haltech does have this option available in the software, to be able to reduce the pulsewidth of the primary injectors and start pulsing the secondaries with a specific value (in mS) to compensate for latency, this mode is called Primary Hold mode. Also, on injector latency, there is an injector dead time table available to correct for this, but alas, its only one table for the whole thing, cant do individual injector dead time tables (yet.. :D). Later on there will be VE tuning available in rotary/staged mode, but for the time being we have injector pulsewidth tuning. |
Does the stock computer still control the OMP or does the Haltech do it yet?
