Injection:
The KV8 can control both modes of injection: Saturated and Peak & Hold up to 8 channels.
Peak and Hold Injector Control
When using low impedance injectors (< 5 Ohms) the ECU uses a switch mode current limiting technique to minimise heat dissipation in the Injector. This gives better injector control and helps maximize injector life by lower its operating temperature.
