Torque Correction (ECT)

Post by Haltamer »

Was just looking through as usual and noticed under the "Torque" Tab of the calibration there is a "Torque Correction (ECT)" Table which I don't remember having seen.

I've had a look through the documentation / forum but haven't been able to find any notes on this (Possibly my ignorance!)

(Temperatures are in Celcius!)

I see the defaults are all 0% Trim;

My initial guess is that this is part of the Torque limitation, I.e. OEM style, pulling timing / power at higher temperatures?

If so, I've a few extra questions:

What ECT is this referencing? - Guessing Pre-Radiator (ECT1?)

What torque value is this in relation to - The Torque limit value configured in Hondata?

If that is the case, has anyone played with the values and found a reasonable "Protection" level, akin to OEM protection with perhaps a little more headroom to account for radiator cap upgrades?

(Boiling point should be around 275F / 135C with 50/50 & Upgraded radiator cap by my maths!)

It's just to reduce power when the engine is overheating. It does this by reducing boost.

ECT is ECT. Coolant temperature.
