Engine Control Unit - Blitz R-VIT

Taking OBDII To A Higher Level

Diagnosis (Fault Diagnosis Mode)Check-engine lights will enable the owner of the vehicle to immediately recognize engine problems. For those of you who have built-up or swapped engines, such as the ever popular SR20DET, may come across compatibility issues, such as the check-engine light wire harness. What constitutes an engine problem when trekking down the highway or on the racetrack? Perhaps a plume of black smoke or a colorful engine fire is the best indication something is definitely wrong with your vehicles, but are you really willing to take that chance? Have no fear, R-VIT is to the rescue! Enabled within the unit is a fault diagnosis system that relays problems the ECU has encountered. Although it cannot indicate specific sensor failure or flash problematic engine codes, the fault meter can be an invaluable tool. Depending on the amount of error codes the engine is riddled with, the unit will display multiple numbers from one and up, indicating problems have developed. If the diagnosis indicator reads zero, congrats! You're trouble free-for now.

Conjunction Junction. What's Your Function?Using the infrared port located on the side of the unit, the R-VIT can perform optical communication with the SBC i-D boost controller, further expanding its capabilities. Linking both systems side by side, the R-VIT will simultaneously send a speed map function, providing an accurate speed-based boost and tachometer information to the SBC-ID. Currently in the R&D stages, Blitz is finalizing the release of their newest fuel mixture controller unit (similar in size and design with the R-VIT) which will be available in October 2004 to the general public. The R-VIT is once again able to link up to this new unit, offering additional tuning and parameter capabilities which are currently unknown at the present time.

Keep It Clean And Keep It SimpleIs your cockpit strikingly similar in looks with the inner workings of a 747 Jumbo Jet? You know, the 10,000 gauges and bulky clusters that are blocking the windshield. Well Captain Meter, with an MSRP of $480, we believe the R-VIT has the appeal to a large majority of automotive enthusiasts, eliminating the need for multiple gauges cluttering the B-pillar and dashboard. Remember you only have two eyes, folks. So unless you have some special mutant powers or you are descended from a family of chameleons-thus having the ability to efficiently screen through all your 20 gauges with one eye, while using the other to stare at the road-we highly recommend the Blitz R-VIT. To date the R-VIT has been the hottest item in Japan since Michael Jackson. Both black and silver versions continually fly off the shelves at an astounding rate. You'd be happy to know Blitz is barely able to keep up with the growing supply demands of the consumers. Wait... is that a bad thing? They take pre-orders so don't delay! Act now!
