    Peter is so incredible. I have W124 and even as I plan to take it to him for M102 conversion to EFI, he is always ready to give out any guidance on the car. Many thanks Peter

    Good day to you my brother and great to see you.
    Have been following your progress for sometime from Zambia.
    When are you likely to start selling the kit?
    Last time you said that you were improving your website.
    Thank you.

    Really nice work. I've been following your videos for a while and it's incredible how far this has come. The display is a nice touch as well! I'm curious how the different driving modes work? Du they regulate how much fuel is injected? Greetings from Germany!

      Hey man, thank you 😁. Each drive mode has different parameters for fuel injection, type of fuel injection (sequential or batch) and ignition advance angles. Sport is aggressive as the moment the throttle changes position, it switches from sequential fueling to batch and the ignition advances based on how loaded the engine is. ECOplus is leaned out and fully sequential, once the throttle changes, it slightly adjusts fuel delivery and the ignition advance is much more to burn the lean mixture on time to make some power.

    Nice ! Coil-on-plug too. Really nice.
    Peter, I’m curious about one thing. Everyone says these engines ( mine too ) tend to shake a bit at idle. Does this go away with EFI or is it the same ?

    • @PeterMbiria1
      @PeterMbiria1  2 місяці тому

      Hey man, thank you for reaching out. Even for modern engines, you'll find them shake a bit, some more. What happens is, when the engine is leaned out when idling, it tends to shake and in my case when tuning, I tend to lean out (15-16 AFR) the mixture which partly causes the shakes during idle. If there's any load, the ECU easily compensates to prevent the engine from stalling by adding fuel enough to run at idle. It doesn't happen to all engines though, some can be leaned out that even at 700rpm idle, the engine is still very stable, at times you can't even feel it running unless very keen.

      We create them, the ECU is our product and we develop those kits.
