COBB Tuning is excited to announce another first in MAZDASPEED3 and MAZDASPEED6 custom tuning; new DI Fueling and Injector Controls. We have just released an AccessTUNER software update with three new beta Injector Controls exposed. These three new tables, in combination, can increase the window for DI fuel delivery, scale fuel injector flow calculations, and accommodate the specific gravity of different fuel types. This opens the door to proper tuning for E85, race gas and big turbo builds that require precise, high-volume fuel control. These developments have allowed the world’s first 700+whp MAZDASPEED3 using the AccessPORT as the engine management solution! Read on to learn more about this exciting development and how COBB Tuning is keeping the AccessPORT and AccessTUNER at the forefront of MAZDASPEED tuning capabilities.

New Table Descriptions

• Injector Latency Multiplier (BETA): Decreasing this value will move the injector opening point to earlier in the engine cycle, increasing fuel delivery (this will cause Injector Duty Cycle [IDC%] to decrease). Increasing this value will move the injector opening period to later in the engine cycle, shortening the period for fuel delivery (this will cause IDC% to increase). Caution should be exercised when decreasing this value as it can be adjusted enough to allow fuel injection to begin as early as the exhaust stroke, through the intake and compression strokes, which may increase wetting of the cylinder walls if the intake charge has not started its entry into the cylinder.
• Injector Scalar (BETA): This control allows a "pump gas" calibrated MAF curve to remain the same when using alternative fuels like E85.  Previously, the only way to compensate for these types of fuels was to skew the MAF sensor to achieve desired fueling.  The Injector Scalar, in conjunction with the Specific Fuel Gravity setting, allows accurate representation of airflow and fueling requirements. Increasing this value will increase fuel delivery by making the ECU think the injector size is smaller. Decreasing this value will decrease fuel delivery by making the ECU think the injector size is larger.  This control will become more prominent once aftermarket fuel injectors become available for this platform.
• Specific Fuel Gravity (BETA): This table allows the entry of the specific gravity of different fuel types and fuel mixes to be entered to allow the ECU to properly calculate fuel delivery requirements. For example, gasoline is around 0.74, E85 and Methanol (99.9%) are around 0.80 and C16 is around 0.70.
