Product Description

Enjoy Emtron features and functionality in this fully condensed packaged system from ACE Performance.

A true motorsport solution for the 2004-2005 Lotus Elise.  The Emtron plug n play solution offers industry leading configurable motorsport traction control.  The package is flexible to handle both NA and forced induction engine set ups.

The Emtron ECU is all motorsport grade hardware and good to temperatures up to 120C (248 degrees) so the ecu can stay in the factory location and does not need to be relocated. 

Factory Speedometer, odometer, fuel level, coolant temp, check engine light, and RPM gauges work with the package thanks to our proprietary can integration device - expansion for a CAN gauge or motorsport dash is easy with the provided CAN expansion plug.

Support for nearly all factory sensors/components/outputs unlike other systems (see details below).  Electric throttle, VVT, MAP, CAN BUS integration (see below), and more. Utilizing the open and unlocked flexible Emtron platform that offers real support anywhere in the world though its world class dealer network.

Installation

Plug in style installation

• Install ECU, and ACE Wire Harness adapter / can module in factory ECU Location

• Install MAP sensor with vacuum reference 

• Install Fuel Pressure/Temp Sensor

• Install new Bosch LSU 4.9 Oxygen Sensor

• Configure ECU for first start up (using ACE start up guide)

• Tune engine

• Install optional extra sensors (recommended - optional)

• Sensor inputs - ie. Fuel Pressure, Ethanol Content

• CAN expansions (EGT, EIC, Dash/Data Logger)

Customizing Installation  

All crucial factory inputs and outputs are supported and connected via ACE Wire Harness adapter.  

Using the KV8 ECU, allows for plenty of I/O open for expansion.  

CAN BUS Support

Emtron ECU system supports two separate CAN networks.   

CAN Channel 1

This network is dedicated to Emtron expansion devices, dash loggers, and other Motorsport systems.  It is pre-configured and pre-wired to connect directly to the Emtron expansion devices like ELC2 Dual CAN Lambda Controller, Emtron EIC10 Input Expander, and more.  The connection can also further be utilized to connect to motorsport dash systems and other motorsport devices.  

Termination for this bus is facilitated via an external resistor that can be unplugged and used to easily expand to other CAN devices.  

CAN Channel 2

This is connected to the factory vehicle network thru the ACE CAN module.  This drives some of the factory instrumentation for the Lotus Elise platform.  Advanced motorsport functions in the Emtron ECU platform are fully unlocked and available for complete configuration on demand.  

This network also is flexible as you can export comprehensive data to a data logger on this network as well if needed.
