Hi all im new here and thought id say hello and ask a few questions. I am helping a friend fit a dta s80 pro ecu in a quattro turbo rally car. I have sorted out a crank trigger wheel but was wondering about cam sensor. Can a dta use a magnetic crank signal and hall cam signal? or do both signals need to be the same? ie both magnetic or both hall. Are many people using a dta ecu on there 5 cylinder?.

I run my DTA s100 wasted spark with magnetic (VR) sensor with 15-1 reference pins on the flywheel.
Just set the engine up as a v10 in the settings and it will work.
I understand all that can be gained by running a cam sensor is a small ammount of economy at lower (cruising) revs, not really what you want in a rally car.The ONLY S2 Golf!

Have run it as V10 in batch mode, but now sequantial with a cam sensor because I want to be able to adjust cylinders individualy.

* Knock control (to determine knock window and cylinder)
* Decreasing the load on the coils by a factor of 2. On higher revolutions, running two sparks and two dwell events can overheat the coils, because it's like running the engine at double RPM, and the coils were not made to function at 14000 rpm at high boost.
* Misfire recognition
* Continous camshaft adjustment (to get feedback for current camshaft position) and it's diagnostics
I would say 1-3 are useful for any car. Out of that closed loop knock control directly affects the performance and safety, as using it, you can always run maximum possible spark advance. Without it you have to leave a respectable margin of performance untapped, to be sure nothing blows up.
