Thanks again everybody for the great support!

I look forward to many more years of giving to the H-T community.

 

Damn Ben... I heard you were writing a book, but had no idea that it was out... I gotta pick this up

 

Hello Ben,

i think i've found a mistake in your book. On page 31 you write "A bar of boost, which indicates a manifold pressure of roughly 14.5 psi gauge pressure or 25.2 psi absolute (at sea level)."

The pressure at sea level is 14.7 psi, so a manifold pressure of 14.5 psi would be 29.2 psi absolute.

Next thing is on page 21 it says a injector duty cycle of 85% is the maximum acceptable limit, on page 44 it says you should not push the injectors past 80%.

Can i go on with criticism?

You have used a demo version of the FAST and other software. The reader might think you have just downloaded the software but never worked with it. You should also hide the taskbar, the reader don't cares when you took the screenshot and that you've used Photoshop

Otherwise the book is good but should go more into detail.

Hello Ben,

there is more in the book i don't agree with. Let me quote what you have written on page 41:

<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">
A multi-point system is one that fires all of the injectors simultaneously, once every revolution. A multi-point system only requires a signal from the engine sensors to tell it the engine speed.
</TD></TR></TABLE>

You have three types of multi-point injection

- simultaneously
- sequential
- batch fire

The reader of your book might think a simultaneously multi-point injection is the only multi-point injection.

Hondas have a multi-point injection too, but a sequential.

The book is very unclear here.
