Question:
Is it possible to put on Flex Fuel sensor for use with a MBE9A4 ECU?

Answer:
It is not something that we have done at the moment because normally most race vehicles use and run the same fuel from when they mapped to when they go on to the racetrack. It is physically possible to create something in the future but you would then have to map the engine twice for the two different types of fuel and optimise the settings for each. This is obviously time consuming and expensive for you and I would suggest not a worthwhile exercise. Production cars do this because they have to run vehicles right across the world, so they spent tens of thousands of hours mapping each fuel type and a device then checks the fuel type by some means and selects the appropriate maps in the ECU so we consider this something not worthwhile for motorsport.

If this kind of work was undertaken, because it is of limited use, the software and strategies would have to be paid for by the company requesting it, as an estimate it would probably 5 days of the engineers work which is charged at £600 per day and you would also have to provide full technical data about the device that you wish to use. At the moment we are unable to provide a timescale for this kind of work, but would anticipate it to be 12 months before it could be looked at.
