    Very informative. I have a 14 focus and it's the first car I've owned with an electronic throttle. If I step on it a little, half throttle, and accelerate from a stop to about 30mph when I
    release the throttle quickly there is a noticeable delay before the throttle actually closes. This is very disconcerting when you continue to accelerate after releasing the throttle, even if
    it is only for a tenth of a second.

    As I understand the throttle body and ECU system works like the potentiometer is connected to the ECU and the throttle body motor pins are connected to the ECU. so turning the potentiometer( pressing the gas pedal) will turn the throttle motor and the valve will open and close. But I do not have a potentiometer in my project setup, I have a passenger counting script written on a raspberry pi ( that replace the ECU) and the passenger counting result will decide on closing the throttle valve. how do I connect them to the raspberry pi or Arduino?

    So Drive by wire compensates for idiots ?
    Calibration as discussed teaches bad habits to the driver unless it is in a Race environment where every little bit helps IMO.
    I would say as well for the application of throttle in a linear DBW map the cable is faster or as fast as it is directly linked to the pedal. Also when released in linear it will only close as fast as the pedal returns. Back in the days of carbs with mechanical secondaries we used to put the throttle cable pull off center to achieve the 75% pedal 50% throttle or less for decent drive ability on rough roads. His point about on boost part lift of is good as all OE stuff is set up for the very first drive and that sort of throttle technique would take a wile to learn.
    May be im just old school in that I prefer a power/torque curve that can get away from me as it adds to the enjoyment of driving far more than just going fast...

      DBW compensates for morons just like boost limits in the lower gears does for the turbocharger. Everybody thinks they are a great driver. Umm, if you can launch the car without wheel spin then I would agree. Since almost nobody can accomplish that, these are tools that make you look like a hero behind the wheel and nobody is the wiser.

    • @GarageSupra
      @GarageSupra 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I agree. He says that it takes 75ms to actuate from 0 to 100% on the throttle itself which is all good but you have to take into account the signal response time from the pedal pickup to the ECU then to the throttle motor for it to actuate. This is the reason most people complain about the lag. Now this stuff is run from a limited refresh rate in the ecu and most aftermarket ecu's are faster than a OE ecu and you will notice less throttle lag just by changing that factor.
      It makes perfect sense to use one for a drag application but for circuit racing I don't think I would get on board with it. As a skilled driver I don't want anything interfering with what I am doing with the throttle in a dry track situation. I am quite capable of determining what I need to do to get the power down correctly. HOWEVER in the wet sure it will be much more useful than traction control when set up correctly.
      I feel DBW is a good solution for certain drivers and applications but it's not for everyone.

    • @AndrewEG
      @AndrewEG 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@GarageSupra The DBW lag has nothing to do with the ECU's input signal reading nor output driver task rate. As he mentioned, manufacturers use it to prevent driveline jerk/thumps due to driveline component clearances.
      He also mentioned in the video multiple times, the main benefit of DBW is to limit the throttle angle for speed/loads that don't require the full 90 degrees of throttle body blade rotation. This provides the driver a more predictable engine torque request as a function of foot pedal angle.

    • @tyronesmith3494
      @tyronesmith3494 5 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      @@GarageSupra , with respect, i have to correct you. Nearly every high-end circuit racing car (ALMS, DP, F1, etc.) utilise DBW for this purpose..speed and accuracy...so it is by no means "just for drag racing". There are an increasing number of circuit cars running DBW....change is slow, often fuelled by fear or ignorance or both...not suggesting you are either!
      On a modern ECU, the signal response time is negligible in terms of the response time of the throttle..ie: on an M1, the driver input pedal posn is sampled at 200HZ (200times/sec = 5mS). The loop time for the M1's microprocessor to calculate the required output to the motor is infintesimal (order of nanoseconds, or millionths of a MILLISECOND..10exp-9 seconds!). The time for the TPS to be read (also at 200Hz, or 5mS) means there is approx 10mS plus a few nanoseconds propagation delay between pedal and plate position. So theoretically a delay, but practically it has no effect on the speed of response of the throttle body, if you push the pedal fast...take worst case, 0% pedal to 100% pedal instantly..first sample, pedal reads 0%, 5mS later assuming you push the pedal to 100% in 5mS (unlikely), the PedPosn would be read as 100%. Output H-bridge goes to full on, and then it is all down to the speed of the actuator motor...so 5-10mS of delay in something that takes 75mS is negligible, especially considering the manifold fill time to the change of MAP, which is a function of the manifold volume. Introduce a step change to your mech throttle plate (or DBW for that matter) and watch the deltaMAP (change in MAP vs time)..it is finite, and has significant bearing on engine tip-in response, far more so than the outright speed of the DBW actuator! In nearly all cases the actuator response is damped or "slew", and in OEM factory unmodified cars, especially manuals, it is slewed excessively for what many "performance" drivers desire...but they drive nice don't they, and they are still pretty fast response at higher engine speeds (the response is often made faster at higher speeds/loads and pedal rates..all tuneable by the OEM engineers, to meet the DNA and targets of their corporations...not every one demands zoom zoom!). With the M1 for example, we can tune the response to however we want...and it most cases, some slew limiting at lower pedals is still best, feeling intuative to drive, rather than having to "drive around it"..anyone with mechanical IRTB intakes that are large will tell you what "driving around" the low speed reduced airflow authority is like, as WOT (100%MAP) at lower engine speeds can be as little as 10-15% pedal. As i explained in vid, 100% load often comes WAY before 100% plate angle at everywhere below full power.
      If you have a cable, unless it is push-pull like most motorbikes, when you let off the throttle, you rely on the spring force to return the plate closed. But the momentum of airflow flowing thru throttle is one force that can resist it closing, as it stiction in the cable, shaft bearings, linkages, etc. So the net force to actually drive the plate closed is the spring force MINUS all those other forces, and the spring force gets less the more the plate closes (nice differential equation problem!). So the result is often if not always that the closing force is significantly lower than the pull force when you rapidly open it..so closing can be way less rapid!!
      Contrast that to DBW, where the actuator is driven closed by the same motor force that it takes to open it, with the only detriment being those forces of air mass flow resisting closure. Postive closing, and we can dwell it a bit as it returns to idle to improve rsistance to stall, as well as controlling the minimum manifold MAP to avoid decel misfires, poor combustion, shuffles and huntingetc on closed throttle decels..which we have all heard cars at the track do! If you want a drive a pig, that's fine by me...but there's no reason with modern DBW tech that just because it's fast it has to be a pig to drive! Remember, as I often say, if it's easy to drive, it's very easy to drive FAST!
      I did my first DBW racecar in 2002 - no-one i have even done DBW for since has ever wanted to go back to cable, or take it away...quite the opposite!

    While I can completely understand the value of drive by wire in a performance application, where the tuner has total control of adjustments to improve drivability, in the OE market it is being tuned by manufacturers to help bad drivers have smoother throttle input, while ruining the responsiveness for people who are accustomed to carefully modulating throttle inputs. I’ve never felt a drive by wire car that was as easy to modulate throttle in as I have most any cable-driven car. It ends up feeling numb and lifeless. Too bad this guy didn’t tune the throttle mapping on my Audi, because it feels absolutely awful compared to my 300ZX TT that is 20 years older.

    Bah,,,,,but what he is saying is and isnt true . On average its true more like FI. Someone thats tuned old cars for power can tune a engine non injected to make its peak power no different than if it was an FI engine .
    On fly by wire there is a severe disconnect from the Human and the interface .Of course engineers love this and I am guessing a ton of car makers do as well for the vast majority of drivers. Someone good with engines and good with cars and good with driving wants that connection. I still would bank on the human hair covered computer over the electronic one if you give me the right human.
    Now does the fly by wire open more doors for cars to perform better for the AVERAGE person ? Of course it does because it takes responsibility from them.
    Ive driven and raced all three entities , Cable with Carb , cable with Injection and fly by wire . My preference for performance over a period of time is the Injection with cable . In the beginning even that small lag was too much but its something you get used to. Fly by wire is very hard to adapt to.....
    If you want to put a dummy in a car and get the same results from the car as someone with more experience and knowledge , of course you want systems filtered through a computer..... The computer then decides and it will always decide the same.

    Drive by wire absolutely sucks if your car has a manual gearbox and you're trying to rev match on your upshifts. Nothing like it unnecessarily keeping the revs elevated when you need them to drop. In my truck, if I waited for the revs to drop to the proper RPM for the next gear, I'd lose all momentum and need to shift back down, particularly when going from 1 to 2. It's absolute horseshit that automakers continue to put this crap on cars.
