When you add performance modifications to your vehicle, it's always a good idea to add gauges or other data acquisition methods to track how these mods affect your vehicle. This data allows you to catch any potential issues with your vehicle and see what steps you can take to make things more efficient. When installing an air-fuel gauge, it's a good idea to know how wideband tuning can improve your vehicle performance and why this is crucial to your modifications.

As you learn about vehicular modifications, you may eventually hear about water/methanol injection systems. These systems introduce a mixture of water and methanol fuel into your car to reduce inlet temperatures and exhaust gas temperatures, which can stifle detonation in the engine. For forced induction engines using a turbocharger or supercharger, they can provide some key benefits. There are several pros and a few cons of using a water/methanol injection system; here are a few of the key ones to keep in mind.

Engine modification requires different parts. When you want to increase horsepower, you want a high-flow fuel pump. Learn how this tool enhances your engine.

An important aspect of automobile modification is using your car's information to see where you need to make improvements. If you want to get data on your engine's air to fuel ratio, you should look for an air-fuel gauge. But when it comes to wideband vs. narrowband air fuel gauges, you may wonder what’s different. Today we’ll help you decide which option is best for you.

No matter what field you're working in, it's essential to analyze problems, see what's causing them, and attempt to fix them. Imagine you work in a field where pieces of equipment speed along at 200 miles an hour. The importance of data acquisition in auto racing should be apparent just from looking at it, but let's consider why it's so vital to the process.

What Is Data Acquisition?

EV conversions are gaining popularity, and with no shortage of vintage iron out there, the possibilities are endless! But what if you want to drive your project daily, or compete with it at track events? That's typically where the limitations of electronic controls for EV conversions rear their head. That ends now, thanks to AEM EV.
