Product Description:
As tools for tuning modern engines have become more powerful and sophisticated in recent years, the need for in-depth knowledge of engine management systems and tuning techniques has grown. Tuning engines can be a mysterious art, all engines need a precise balance of fuel, air, and timing in order to reach their true performance potential. This book explains how the EFI system determines engine operation and how the calibrator can change the controlling parameters to optimize actual engine performance. Engine Management: Advanced Tuning takes engine-tuning techniques to the next level. It is a must-have for tuners and calibrators and a valuable resource for anyone who wants to make horsepower with a fuel-injected, electronically controlled engine. Author Greg Banish is a calibration engineer with extensive aftermarket performance calibration experience. He has a BSME from GMI Engineering and Management Institute (Kettering University). With over a thousand unique calibrations performed over five years, he has worked with enthusiasts and OEMs alike to improve the performance and driving behavior of a wide range of vehicles. The book contains detailed equations, graphs, and illustrations. Also included are valuable and practical examples, including real-world examples based upon the author’s experience that will help more advanced readers apply this new information to situations that are commonly seen during calibration.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Its not a advanced tuning, its basic efi book
It's not that the title said, when You enter at the point of specific theme of fuel inyection the autor jump to a "lets to a professional technician" or "it's only for expert". I expect more for the book, other books are more complete with the theme.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - pretty deep
This manual goes into a lot of electronic tuning theory. After you've read it all, you should have a basic knowledge of computer tuning of electronic management sytems. As the book says "If you can tune a carburetor, you can tune EFI".



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent book for the novice or advanced tuner
This book is very well written and easy to understand and follow. It starts out explaining the basics of automotive engines, controls, sensors, etc then gets into how these systems interact with each other and then how to look at the different engine paramaters to determine how to alter controls and sensors related to pressures, speeds and temps to increase engine performance. Good read for the novice as well as the advanced tuner.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - very pleased
This is a very informative book for someone just starting out in tuning and gives some pointers for the experienced. I recommend this book to anyone interested in tuning there own vehicles and needs some help getting started.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellence reference, good for beginners.
