"... the car runs much better
than it EVER did at low throttle with the AFC." - Dan
Hammans
"The car [is] so smooth during cruise
& part throttle... WOT was just as strong as before with NO
tuning! ... This is SO cool!" - Hal
Landry
"... the install was a cinch! ... I love
the plug and play, easier than an AFC" - Martin

IT'S HERE! If
you own and race a turbo-charged second generation Mitsubishi Eclipse or
Eagle Talon, then this is the product you've been waiting for. If you've
ever drooled over your friends with 1Gs capturing all sorts of data,
tuning like mad men at the track, while you piddled around with your OBD
II-based pathetic excuse for a datalogger capturing two frames per second,
then this is your dream come true.
ANNOUNCING DSMLINK!
DSMLink is the datalogger and tuning tool for the
second generation Mitsubishi Eclipses and Eagle Talons. Rest assured, this
is not just another OBD II logger. No, no. This is a full-fledged
datalogger and tuning tool. That's right. I boldfaced
and underlined that conjunction. DSMLink not only
provides high-resolution datalogging facilities, but also provides the
tuning tools necessary to actually do something with all that data you
just captured. DSMLink includes fuel and ignition timing
adjustments in the factory ECU. You retain all the driveability of
the factory-calibrated fuel and timing maps during cruise operation, but
gain full control over things at wide open throttle. You simply specify
RPM-based adjustments and DSMLink automatically creates the 3-dimensional mapping
used internally by the ECU. It's a very easy, yet very powerful way to
tune your car's performance at the track.
A basic overview of the features provided with
DSMLink are outlined below. More detail can be found in the user
manual, available for viewing in the Downloads section or you
can refer to the Details section
online.
Feature |
Description |
DTCs |
Allows the user to disable some of
the more annoying check engine light conditions. |
Fuel cut |
Removes the airflow fuel
cut. |
Speed limiter |
Removes the speed
limiter. |
Knock MIL |
Flashes the check engine light if
timing is pulled back more than 5 degrees due to knock (i.e., you're
starting to knock pretty badly). |
Fan Control |
Allows the user to turn on both
radiator fans to their highest speeds. |
Fuel pump |
Allows the user to force the fuel
pump on without running the car. Useful for draining the tank
without heating up the engine. |
Cam inverter |
Manipulate the cam sensor signal
so that injector firing order is swapped. Useful when DSMLink
is installed in a car with a '97+ or 1G-style cam sensor. Yes, you
still have to swap the plug wires...there's not much we can do about
that one. |
A/T timing |
Retains ignition timing in between
shifts on automatics. |
Injectors |
Provides compensation for
aftermarket injectors; idle like stock even with 720
injectors. |
Fuel/Timing |
Provides RPM-based fuel and timing
adjustments. The ECU automatically calculates the more complicated
airflow based adjustments from your settings. |
Save/recall |
Save off as many fuel and timing
profiles as you like, then load them up when you need them. Street,
strip on pump, strip on race gas, whatever you like. |
Auto save |
Your adjustments to the fuel and
timing curve are stored inside the ECU for as long as the ECU
retains power. |
RPM limits |
Allows adjustment to rev limit,
launch RPM, and idle point. |
Datalogging |
Capture everything you could
imagine, including knock! Sample rates of almost 300 bytes per
second, which translates to roughly 20 frames of 11 values per
second. |
Log notes |
Enter notes with each log file to
record things like quarter mile time and fuel and timing setup
(optionally grabbed from the ECU for you). |
Autoframe |
Frames a data capture
automatically for a drag strip pass. This trims the data before and
after the pass so that you're left with a clean, concise view of
what happened going down the track. |
Octane reset |
Resets the long term octane value
on every restart of the car. |
BCS flicker |
Removes the boost control solenoid
(BCS) flicker between 2300 and 3900 RPMs. |
Autonotes |
Automatically copies your fuel and
timing settings into the notes dialog so you'll be able to see what
you were running during any log file you capture. |
Export |
Exports displayed data to a file
appropriate for loading into Excel for further
analysis. | |
