Stinger Performance PiMP Standalone Engine Management (2.3, 2.3T, 5.0, 4.6)

The Stinger Performance Plug-in Microsquirt Powered (PiMP) engine control unit is the most high-tech and capable plug and play option available for Ford EEC-IV equipped vehicles. Plug and play means you remove the stock ecu, plug in the P.I.M.P., run a vacuum/boost line from the PIMP to the engine, follow a few basic setup steps, plug in a wideband o2 meter, and it's ready to start up and begin tuning. It also allows you to remove the factory air meter (VAM on 2.3T cars, MAF on V8 cars) and run a filter directly off of your turbo or cold air tube.

Not only does it allow you to remove the factory air meter (which is a huge restriction on 2.3T powered vehicles) but it also features VE Live which is an auto tuning capability build into the tuning software. This powerful feature will tune the engine on it's own while you do nothing but drive around under varying conditions. This allows the end user to tune the idle and cruising portion of the fuel map to "better than stock" often in less than 30 minutes. Additionally, the PiMP comes with a base tune featuring dyno proven and safe timing maps that can be ran as provided or fine tuned to your particular setup as you see fit. The PiMP also allows for any injector size and type readily available for your application. When upgrading injectors, your new tune for larger injectors is only a few keystrokes away. The rev limit can be changed in seconds and the 2-step launch control feature (for building boost on the line when drag racing) can be configured to any trigger rpm and launch rpm you see fit. An advanced feature known as flat-shift is popular in many forms of racing, the intent of which is to hold boost between shifts to eliminate lag after shifting. It can also be configured to any rpm and timing retard value to tailor it to your car and driving style. Additionally, the PiMP can trigger two stages of Nitrous or Meth/Water Injection as well as switch to different fuel, timing, and target AFR tables when these systems are activated. Table switching can also be triggered via a toggle switch or the factory premium fuel switch so you can have "Race" and "Cruise" tunes or any other combination of tunes you may desire "on the fly". All of these features are configured to use the factory wiring harness and sensors for activation, though aftermarket switches can be used for Launch Control/Flat Shift activation if desired.

The PiMP is designed to run the ignition system stock to your vehicle by default. Many different Ford ignition systems are supported including TFI, DIS, EDIS, CDI (MSD style ignition boxes), and via the Internal Expansion Port, Individual Coil Packs with a Crank Trigger. For non-stock ignition systems, additional wiring modifications or additions may be required.

The P.I.M.P. is a joint venture between Stinger Performance and Wes K.
Wes has been a member of the Turboford community since 2004, and actively involved in the Megasquirt project since 2004. Wes has also been a MS Extra Alpha and Beta tester for several years, and has had real input into the development of MS2 Extra and MS3 firmware. In addition to the DIY/Megasquirt type projects, Wes has worked as an engineer in the motorsports industry for several years, including experience with many high-end motorsports ECU's. This ecu began as a personal project of his and as time went on he decided it would be most beneficial to have more boards made and offer them to the masses. At that point he contacted Stinger Performance and we began working out the details and coming up with a final product for production. With two engineers involved with the design and support of the PiMP, the attention to detail and quality is second to none.

The PiMP can be connected to laptop via USB or Serial port. We do advise you use the Serial cable if your laptop supports it. If you only have USB capability, you can purchase the required USB to Serial adapter HERE.

The PiMP was designed to work in any EEC-IV (OBD-1) Ford vehicle (~83-95), though it hasn't been testing in all possible applications. The tested and verified working applications are listed below.

All of the software and documentation needed to get you up and running comes on a 1GB USB Flash Drive. That way you don't need wireless internet to access these items. A 15 page startup guide covers every detail to get you up and running including PiMP installation, software setup, hardware configuration, and USB adapter driver installation (when required).

Application:

Delphi, Lucas, & Siemens Deka Fuel Injectors
Delphi injectors are ball/seat design with 6 hole diffuser disc which gives quick response time and very efficient operation at high duty cycles which make them great for high horsepower street/strip applications. Rated @ 43.5PSI Fuel Pressure.

Siemens Deka 4 Motron injectors are a new high impedance design that doesn't exhibit the overheating issues at high fuel pressures. They are also very linear like their low impedance counterparts which make them perfect for high output 4 cylinder engines.

The ECU dictates if you must run low or high impedance injectors. Stock 2.3 Turbos require Low Impedance. Our PIMP ECU can run either High or Low Impedance. We are a big fan of the Siemens units with our PIMP ECU.
55lb and 120lb are Lucas brand, 65lb-96lb are Delphi brand, 60lb-80lb High Impedance are Siemens Deka brand.

Performance advantages over pintle injectors ( Ford/Bosch/Accel/etc.) as listed by Delphi:
 

-The flat mating surface ensures that no excess fuel is present to evaporate and therefore, no deposits or clogging can occur.
-
Compatible with alternative fuels (i.e. Methanol) 
-
Longer service life
-
High-speed disc action allows wider dynamic flow range for improved idling
-
Quieter operation
-
Revolutionary disc design resists build up deposits which can affect fuel flow.
-
No Fuel leakage for quicker starts

Blow Off Valves & Bypass Valves
Dual Piston Blow Off Valve
Suitable for most turbo cars with an Air Flow Meter

Made from billet aluminum, this atmospheric blow off valve dumps the boosted air to atmosphere creating the "Whoosh" sound when the throttle is lifted.
Unlike single piston or diaphragm diverter valves, this valve uses counter balanced springs and dual pistons to prevent the valve from leaking air into the intake system at idle or part throttle. This prevents the valve from causing the driveability issues associated with single piston and diaphragm type valves when used on vehicles equipped with an air meter (VAM or MAF). Designed to be clamped to a 1" hose connection which is available on all of our intercooler kits.
Includes: Blow off valve, Replacement preload spring, 1" Silicone Hose for attachment available at bottom of this page.
Dual Piston BOV
:
Price: $ 75.00 Shipped


Single Piston Blow Off Valve Type RFL
Made from billet aluminum, this atmospheric blow off valve dumps the boost air to atmosphere through the horn shaped outlet creating a VERY loud "Whoosh" sound when the throttle is lifted.
Because this valve is a single piston design, it can created some driveability issues if spring preload is not set properly which allows the valve to open at idle or part throttle, creating a vacuum leak. For this reason, this valve works best with speed density ecu systems that don't use an air meter (VAM or MAF). This includes standalone ecu's like Megasquirt, Haltech, F.A.S.T, etc. Designed to be attached to the 1.25" flange included with the blow off valve. We can weld this flange to any of our on all of our intercooler kits when ordered together.
Includes: Blow off valve, steel and aluminum mounting flanges, preload adjustment spacers, installation tool.
Single Piston RFL:
Price: $ 70.00 Shipped


Single Piston Bypass Valve
Made from billet aluminum, this recirculating bypass valve dumps the boosted air back into the intake system pro-turbo keeping external noise to a minimum.
Because this valve recirculates the air back into the system, it prevents the valve from causing the driveability issues associated with single piston blow off valves when used on vehicles equipped with an air meter (VAM or MAF).Designed to be clamped to a 1" hose connection which is available on all of our intercooler kits.
Includes: Blow off valve, Replacement preload spring.
1" Silicone Hose for attachment available at bottom of this page.
