What's so special about the Adaptronic ECU?

Because the amount of fuel required by engines differs under different conditions (eg throttle position) and between different engines, the ECU must be tuned for the particular engine. This process must be repeated when other modifications to the engine are made. This can often take a lot of time to perform, even for an experienced tuner, because the tuner has to manually adjust the fuel mixture on the ECU, and retest the engine, for hundreds of different conditions. Time on a dynamometer can be quite expensive, leading to a very expensive engine modification.

There is another method, which is where the ECU automatically adjusts the mixture strength to the user's specification. This greatly speeds up the tuning procedure. This technology has been employed by MoTec (Quick Lambda) and Autronic (Autotune), however their use appears limited to tuning on a dynamometer.

The Adaptronic has been designed from the ground up to run continuously in adaptive mode. This means that after performing changes such as a new exhaust system, the user merely needs to continue to drive the car on the street, and the ECU will automatically adapt to the changes made.

This makes life easier for vehicle modifiers and the end user, while encouraging responsible car tuning, leading to less pollution from modified cars generally.
