Engine management sensors - Z20LEH engine conversion

One of the main engineering challenges faced when installing the 400bhp Astra VXR engine (Z20 LEH) into our Corsa SRI race car has been the integration of the Z20 LEH engine ECU with the main Corsa ECU vehicle management system. The engineers at Thorney Motorsport have come up with an ingenious solution to this challenge which ensures the reliable and smooth running of the whole vehicle. Along the way the opportunity has been taken to incorporate several additional sensors into all areas of the vehicle management system including fuel and engine control and monitoring. These extra sensors will provide vital data output to assist with engine set up and ongoing vehicle performance monitoring.
