Anyone have a good recommendation on which book for ECM/PCM theory?
I am wanting the actual nuts and bolts of ecm function, fueling, spark, adders, multipliers, and sequence of items listed above.
I think it's very difficult to tune something, when I don't fully understand the exacting timing and function of the device.

Greg Banish's Engine Management Advanced Tuning provided me with the best overall knowledge on the sensors, their purpose, how the PCM utilizes them, base tuning strategies, fine tuning and go for power. Includes FI sections as well for all the Boost fans out there. At $16.95 from Amazon, its a great deal. In addition, he takes 3 examples of modding Ford and GM vehicles and explains the top level process of retuning. Includes bolt-on, head/Cam and FI examples. I have worn the book out by re-reading each time I learn a bit more detail and understand more.Originally Posted by jtaliaferro
