Overall more powerful editing and logging software, compare functions, smoothing functions etc all built in. Versus something like hp tuners- they maintain all of that back end work and give you a single interface for tuning, logging, etc.

#OPEN SOURCE ECU TUNING SOFTWARE#

Over time as the open source software gets better / more streamlined this can get better.but it just depends what the devs end up doing. For those savvy on this kind of stuff, not a big deal, but it's a steep learning curve and honestly many won't be into that. Open source is very powerful and interesting to me, but you're looking at maintaining multiple definition files, the PiCAN logging solution you manually edit some config files to log what you want, you need to know the memory/RAM address of these things, what they are called 'not easy plain english names'. Thanks to expand.Ī commercial product like HP Tuners does simplify the process a lot. If you know assembly or you're familiar with reverse engineering.īecause with the help of a few really cool people I was able to achieve something really rad and I'm all amped up about it. People that want to use and/or contribute to a community supported tuning option. We based our work on Eurodyne because it's what we had and it's a great tool. Acquire definitions files (which some of us are working on) for your calibration and modify the calibration accordingly.

It's entirely community supported.Īt present, you need to acquire a flash file and apply a patch to it. It's a DIY option available to those that are looking for more control of their ecu and aren't afraid to do the leg work. It works today and it's what I've been using to flash modified calibrations and the modified software.Ī replacement tuning option for APR/Cobb/EcuTek/etc customers. He's written a flashing program (available on his GitHub) for flashing the ecu. With the help of a few other people we've enabled native flexfuel, and even modified the application software so true performance flex is possible (ignition and fueling adjustment based on measured ethanol content from a standard flexfuel sensor).Įarly on, I had hooked up with the genius behind the Eurodyne Tune Adjuster app (Brian, bri3d), and he's been a MASSIVE help through all of this. I also wrote a 'high speed' logger which runs on a raspberry pi and is started when you enable the cruise control.

#OPEN SOURCE ECU TUNING TRIAL#

To make a really long story short, by mid October after a lot of trial and error I had enabled the MPI in my Eurodyne tune. While I sat around I started doing some research into how these ecus actually work. They had a long wait and were really uninterested in discussing things with someone that asks too many questions. I had been holding out for Eurodyne mpi support and by the fall when I had everything installed I was ready to bite the bullet and just go UM. In 2020 I had decided to go hybrid + mpi on my sportwagen. Posting in R because we all have the same ecu and the golf section is dead. I'm curious how much interest there is in something like this.
