New Product of the Day

 

Pro-Flo 4 EFI from Edelbrock

Edelbrock’s new Pro-Flo 4 electronic fuel injection system’s key advancements are in the all-new compact and water-resistant ECU which features a faster processor with an upgraded Bluetooth chip for more reliable connectivity with the system’s E-Tuner app. For advanced tuners, the Pro-Flo 4 offers more options that give total control over cold starts and acceleration, all while retaining the simplicity that Pro-Flo systems are known for. Pro-Flo 4 EFI does not require laptop tuning. The key to this user-friendly system is Edelbrock’s exclusive E-Tuner 4 application with base calibrations that have been developed on their in-house dyno. The self-learning capability will continually adjust the calibration to get the maximum performance out of your engine. Edelbrock’s E-Tuner 4 app utilizes a Bluetooth wireless connection to communicate with the ECU, giving you the ability to monitor engine vitals and performance in real-time from inside or outside of the vehicle. It also features an easy-to-use Setup Wizard to guide users through the process. Pro-Flo 4 lets users adjust both fuel and spark from the E-Tuner 4 app, giving complete control of the system with the ability to fine-tune air-fuel ratios, ignition curve, idle speed, acceleration fuel, coolant fans, rev-limiter and much more. All kits include a seven-inch Android tablet with the E-Tuner 4 app pre-installed. For users with an existing Android-based smart phone or tablet, the E-Tuner 4 app can be downloaded for free in the Google Play store.   [03/07/19]
