3.9 Exhaust Gas Temperature.
Being able to monitor the exhaust gas temperature is very important,
especially on a turbo charged engine, in order to avoid
engine damage and also to avoid over-cooling the
combustion with too much injected fuel as this lowers
engine power. The ALS feature of NIRA i7x also requires
precise monitoring of the exhaust gas temperature.
Make frequent inspection of the sensor to make sure it is in order. A broken
sensor will immediately destroy the turbo.
Picture 3-5: The NIRA EGTC sensor probe mounts where the headers collect, before the
turbo.
3.10 Anti Lag System (ALS) Switch
An external switch is needed to turn on/off the Anti Lag System. Mount the
switch so it’s easily accessible for the driver. Connect two wires to the switch.
The Button GND wire at one of the pins. The other pin connects to the wire
marked “ALS Switch in, on=gnd” in the NIRA i7x harness.
3.11 Launch Control Button
A button is needed to activate Launch Control. Mount it so it’s
easily accessible for the driver. Connect two wires to the button. Ground one
of the pins with the “Button GND” cable. The other wire connects to the wire
marked “Launch Button in, on=gnd” in the NIRA i7x harness.
