Speed density and safety
Posted: Sat Apr 11, 2009 6:34 am
I'm in the middle of a turbo motorcycle build and a safety concern crossed my mind, I'm reverting the bike in speed density algorithm, witch include removing the ITB's and build an intake plenum with a single TB.
I'm building the plenum from 3/16" Aluminium TIG welded with reinforcing rods to avoid balooning.
My main concern is that in the event that a backfire or simply boost pressure rips the box open, the ECU sill see atmospheric pressure and there will be, on a bike on lower gear I may loose control before I reach the kill switch.
Is there any features in Microsquirt that could detect a situation of a high RPM, high load but closed throttle and shut off the ECU ??
