We're trying to set up auto throttle blipping for downshifts on a Honda City race car for the Thai Endurance Series. M150 ECU with the GPR upgrade and an H-pattern shifter. Now I know you want to say "just tell the driver to heel & toe", but we can't do for cultural reasons. Kind of like if it was Bernie Ecclestone driving your car. Unfortunately we've already blown up at least a couple of transmissions. Soooooo...
I can't find any documentation on setup of the gear shift subsystem on a Motec ECU. No videos on the Motec site or Youtube, nothing in the manual. I can find people on the internet asking & answering advanced questions, but no introduction, overview, or tutorials. Does anyone know where I might find such things?
We're thinking of using the clutch pressure sensor as a substitute for the gear lever strain gauge, and the brake light instead of a downshift button. Is there any chance this could work? We don't have time to outfit the shift lever with a sensor, and we don't want the driver to have to press a button to blip the throttle.
Any help would be appreciated.
