I donīt know if there is a such a facility on the Accel software. I just know you can configure it in just about any way you want to - if you actuallyknow what you want!

The point of fuel injection with wide band oxygen sensors is that the ECU will tune itself on the fly and correct the mixture/ignition according to how you drive the car (also influenced by MAP and intake temperature).
That is what carbs cannot do.

As long as the adjustment window for mixture and ignition advance is correctly set up to cover all driving conditions, from economy to full bore acceleration, your right foot is all you need.....

Modern motors can do more, by virtue of clever stuff like variable cam profile or intake tracts and a double the number of sensors (inertia sensors, for example), and even then they can be annoying because the economy setting may be too sluggish or the sport setting difficult to drive smoothly in less than flat out situations.

Judging the websites alone, Dynaformance and Hilborn are way ahead of TWM (in terms of describing the product and what it can do), but a real world back to back comparison of functions and features would already be a great help. Whether one produces 10 more horsepower has got to be secondary to reliability.
