Enhancing Performance: Unveiling the Power of Linear Throttle Maps

In the world of automotive engineering, precision control and peak performance are paramount. One pioneering advancement that has taken the racing circuit by storm is the concept of "linear" throttle maps. Here at Electronic Repair, we take pride in being the trailblazers in developing this innovation, rooted in our extensive racing experience. Let's delve into the realm of linear throttle maps, understanding how they have revolutionized driving dynamics and provided drivers with unparalleled control and finesse.
​

The Genesis of Linear Throttle Maps
Our journey into linear throttle maps commenced with a deep understanding of the racing realm. Racing drivers, always seeking the competitive edge, yearned for enhanced control over throttle response, especially during cornering maneuvers. The goal was to recreate the seamless feel of a traditional cable throttle, a sensation that promised predictability and balance.


At its core, a linear throttle map seeks to offer a smooth and consistent relationship between throttle input and engine response. Unlike traditional throttle maps that might exhibit sudden or aggressive behavior, linear maps prioritize gradual progression. This is particularly favored by racing drivers who value finesse and predictability in their control.

Tailoring Control to Individual Preferences
Every driver possesses a unique style and every car responds in its own way. Acknowledging this, we offer a spectrum of options within the linear throttle map paradigm. A direct one-to-one map, while too aggressive for most, offers a glimpse into the raw potential of the car's performance. However, modern Engine Control Units (ECUs) provide an array of possibilities to fine-tune this relationship.


By expertly calibrating the linear map, drivers can manipulate the car's sensors to craft a driving experience that aligns with their preferences. This fine-tuning empowers drivers to choose between a gentle finesse, ideal for maintaining control with a delicate touch, or a slightly more progressive approach, widely favored by racing professionals seeking precise yet powerful control.

Addressing Traction Challenges
In the pursuit of optimizing performance, we also confront the challenge of excessive wheelspin, a common concern in modern turbo applications or rear-wheel-drive (RWD) cars. This phenomenon can induce understeer or snap oversteer, leading to compromised control and maneuverability.


Our race-proven solutions have garnered praise from experienced drivers for their ability to manage aggressive wheelspin. However, we understand that this feature might not suit everyone's preferences or needs. As such, this advanced feature is selectively implemented and tailored to specific applications.

Additionally, an essential consideration for enhanced traction and control is the integration of a Limited Slip Differential (LSD). While the worm drive type provides a balanced option for road driving, those willing to embrace the additional noise and cost can opt for the superior performance of a Plate Differential.
