The debut of the latest Cosworth EC Pro application for the 2008+ Mitsubishi Evolution X just took place at the 2009 SEMA Show. The EC Pro is a true professional motorsports ECU by Cosworth Electronics who developed the Pectel Control Systems seen in series such as the FIA, WRC, British Touring Cars, Japanese Super GT300 & GT500, Formula Nippon, FIA GT, Champ Car, IRL, World Superbikes, and the LeMans 24hr.
Check out this monster list of features for the Cosworth EC Pro:
- On the 2008+ Mitsubishi Evo X, the addition of a Pi Research lap beacon enables the advanced user to build track maps in the Pi Toolbox software (supplied with EC Pro) for advanced analysis of driver and vehicle performance.
- Designed for full OEM harness and system integration Plug and Perform. Base calibration supplied to run a stock engine. There is no need for replacement of OEM wiring harness or sensors. Makes use of OEM dash and controls.
- 56Mhz processor. Higher performance timing accuracy and control Ethernet comms Fast data offload and high quality data viewing on PC
- Internal logging memory. Pre configured logging channel configuration at optimum rates for performance analysis by your dealer. User can define specific logging configurations . 4mb on board internal memory and up to 2,000Hz of logging bandwidth is standard.
- Knock monitoring and Control. Advanced knock processing chip offers industry leading advanced knock signal filtration and signal processing. OEM MIL lamp indication of Detonation levels (with user defined levels based on RPM and Boost).
- Calibration select. (e.g. Fuel save, Test, Race) Use of the OEM switches for selection of 3 alternate calibrations (calibration selectable for boost, fuelling, ignition, rev limit, ALS setting, VCAM target, Fly-By-Wire pedal mapping, and overrun fueling cut-off per calibration setting).
- Pectel ALS (Anti Lag System) OEM switch (e.g. cruise control button) used for ALS mode select.
- Analog Inputs for external sensors. Additional pressure transducers, temperature sensors, and digital inputs can be wired into the EC Pro for logging additional engine parameters and/or additional control strategies. The number of analog inputs depends on the specific model.
- Closed Loop Boost Control. Full closed loop or open loop boost control via PID parameters and solenoid duty cycle map. Closed loop boost levels are also selectable via calibration select (see above).
- Standard Motorsport Design. Machined billet aluminum case and professional motorsport s specification electronics.
- OEM Narrow Band Supported Can be disabled by user.
- External Wideband Supported. Compatible with all wideband units with 0-5v analog output.
- Internal Wideband Supported. WBL kit – Requires Cosworth by Pectel NTK sensor, requires 3 extra populations and 2 pin relocating. blank pins on OEM harness populating.
- Variable CAM. Pre-configured full camshaft support.
- External Comms Support. Optional Motorsport dash and center differential controller.
- Designed for Racing – No OBDII Motorsport use-Ready to dyno tune for your engine specifications.
- Thermocouple Support. TC Kit can be fitted and wired directly to ECU for monitoring or control strategy e.g. exhaust over temp enrichment, auto ALS disable (Uses 2 spare pins on ECPro)
