It's almost like having a person sitting next to you who, having seen how you drive, adjusts the automatic gearbox accordingly.įor the fully automatic mode to be in operation, the gear selector is simply left in 'D'. As soon as you start driving the computer begins to monitor your driving style, and after a short while sets the up and down-change points to suit, thus smoothing out progress on the road. In simple terms INVECS-II is a computer-controlled automatic transmission which has the ability to "learn" your driving style, using its Adaptive Shift Control software. It has now been developed into INVECS-II, and is seen in the Mitsubishi Shogun, Grandis and the Lancer. Mitsubishi's clever INVECS transmission (it stands for Intelligent & Innovative Vehicle Electronic Control System) was first made available in the Galant over a decade ago. I don't think it will be possible to implement the third feature of the 5.10 ROM "No Lift To Shift" (NLTS), as this requires a clutch switch input to the ECU.īelow is a 'pinout' of the GTA, It is still incomplete. If anyone is interested, or can make use of, here is my ROM GTA Manual 8MR ECU Tephra 5.10 with maps and limits and knock 1e.bin Mine seems to work well, of the 3 features included with the Tephra ROM, I have 2 working "CEL (Check Engine Light) on knock", and "Valet mode" (which is why I have gone to this trouble!) I'm still experimenting though. I changed as many of the entries in the new ROM for the values in my old ROM. I copied most of the fields from my GTA ROM (which had a ECUtek map), including the map onto the Tephra ROM. I Used Tephra ROM 5.10, which will need the following XML file: (see above procedure for adding to ECUflash) *NOTE - This only applies to a GTA with a Manual conversion, using the standard GTA ECU* I have managed to flash a Tephra ROM on my GTA ECU. (I have noticed a couple of other Mitsubishi cars with the same plug configuration)įlashing the GTA ECU for use in a manual car (manual converted GTA) They are, however wired up completely differently. The GTA ECU is unique to the GTA (or so I believe), It was the first in the Evo range to use the plugs with 3 rows of pins, it has the same connectors as the VIII & IX, plus an additional one. If it is 256kb you have done something wrong. Make sure after you have saved the ROM that it is a file size of 512kb. You will also need the 'XML file' added to this location Ĭ:\Program Files\OpenECU\EcuFlash\rommetadata\mitsubishi\evoĬonnect up to your ECU and 'Read' the ROM. Using ECUflash (recent version), you (will probably) need to add 2 files to your system as follows Īdd the 'read template' for the GTA in this location Ĭ:\Program Files\OpenECU\EcuFlash\rommetadata\read templates (or adjust if installed in a different location - this is where it is put as standard) Same equipment required as for manual VII.
