Auotune update!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well this is supposed to be the month for the release.
I was told probably this week.
Also they have been working closely with Dynodynamics to get it working properly.

AWESOME! can't wait.

I'm sure it'll require a firmware update and new halwin. any idea where this'll be found and when?

thanks for the update

Ive heard that the autotronic autotune isn't really usefull for tunning on boost where the engine speed and load changes rapidly, but that it can help nail things down with fine adjustments.

I wonder if haltech autotune will be the same.

Well you know how that goes!

Some of the guys from Dynodynamics dyno were in town a couple of weeks ago and they were speaking about the auotune stuff from Haltech. The impression I got was that they were very impressed with the operation of the autotune.
Only time will tell.

Thats a completly different concept. I am pretty sure that the autotune isn't actually making changes while the engine is in operation.

Interestingly enough i actually made a excel spread sheet that will tune a haltech based on a data log. Because the haltech saves the data logs in a coma separated file format it can be directly copied into excel where I made a big-ol spread sheet to give you a new fuel table based upon the AFR’s you specify. It even gives you nifty little graphs of all the data and AFR’s. it actually worked pretty damn well. im sure this will be much better though, and im very excited for it.

Thats a stupid thing to say, specially since Haltech's arent limited to rotaries.

Where u heard this?

I have a SM4 and my engine is tuned with atotune and it's realy good. Nailed my AF at 15 psi dead on in 2 pulls. It was excatly the AF ratio i set from 2500 all the way to 8000 rpm with the autotune.

Works like a charm. U need to have a wideband with a 0-1v narrowband output, and set the parameters right in the autronic.

Hopefully the haltech will be just as easy to use.

BTW the autronic adjusts the fuel while u are driving. I could feel it changing the fuel when holding rpm and pressure.

I actually came accross that in the forum. Wow I hope the haltech autotune works that good.

I'm supprised that the autotronic can't accept a 0-5 volt wideband native

Just because the wideband is outputting a 0-1 volt signal doesn't mean its going to be innacurate.

I was just supprised that an ECU that expensive wouldn't nativley accept a 0-5 volt input.

I was bored at work, so I emailed haltech. Dave did an excellent job tuning my car, but I really want to use this to fine tune out the difference that came about as a result of the change in altitude from @4500' to sea level. This is what they said:

Hello,

The firmware/software will certainly be available for everybody. I don't feel
the software will be ready for public release in the next week however.
As soon as there is a public release you will be e-mailed to let you know.

If there is anything else we can do please let me know,
