Link G4 Storm delivers performance that rivals any engine management ECU system

26 June 2008 · Staff

The G4 Storm offers the latest in high end aftermarket engine management. You will be stunned by the G4’s performance, features and reliability.

The G4 Storm delivers performance that rivals any engine management system on the market. This ECU is more than capable of running sequential injection, ignition and variable valve timing on most of today’s engines. The Storm offers all of the advanced G4 tuning features at an extremely competitive price.

Built with cost in mind, Storm delivers the results, retaining all the functions normally demanded by both tuner and driver. The Storm runs the same powerful microcontroller and firmware as the Xtreme, but with one loom.
G4 Storm Key Features: * four injection drives * four ignition outputs * three/four analog inputs* * two temperature inputs * three/four digital inputs* * eight auxiliary outputs * one, thirty four pin, waterproof connector * built in, 2.5 bar, MAP sensor * 5V out * USB to Link CAN cable * Link CAN connector * Spare injection and ignition channels can be auxiliary outputs

• One digital input shares the same pin as one analogue input
  The Storm G4 standard kit includes: * G4 Storm ECU * 2.5m wiring loom * ECU mounting kit * Wiring and installation instructions * USB tuning cable
  Installation Accessories: * Inlet Air Temperature Sensor (highly recommended) * Igniters * Ballast Resistors * Wide band O2 Sensors
  Tune the G4 Storm with PCLink
  On board USB – No expensive tuning adapters required
