Enginuity is a full featured Engine Control Unit editing application for tuning SSP2 Subarus, meant to be used in conjuction with datalogging and ECU flash and dump utilities. Enginuity will give you full control over timing, fuel, boost and many other parameters in your ECU, competing with very expensive and proprietary software. Enginuity will remove your need for piggyback systems designed to control these functions, and, in most cases, work as well as any stand alone engine management. Reflashing your stock ECU also has the added benefit of a manufacturer tested base map, giving you top notch performance and saving time tuning idle and low throttle applications.

Enginuity is currently in BETA TEST status, meaning it is not thoroughly tested and not intended for use by inexperienced users. In addition to being incomplete and untested, only experienced tuners with the required tools (ie, wideband oxygen sensor) should modify an ECU image. As with any engine management, changes could result in severe engine damage. Use at your own risk.

Until Enginuity reaches a mature point, releases will be quite frequent and will usually contain significant changes. However, some times I may release a revision to add a single feature I'd like users to have, or maybe just to add a certain ECU version. Until more features are complete, version support will be quite limited. If you'd like your ECU version to be added, please visit openecu.org and post a message in the Technical Tuning Software forum, with your image attached.

0.2.7b Release Notes (4/12/2006)
--------------------------------
The main goal of this release was fixing known issues and adding a settings panel. The settings panel now allows you to choose the way tables are displayed, which warnings will be displayed and specify system files. Settings are now stored in settings.xml -- the old method caused settings to be lost whenever a new feature was introduced with a release. A message will appear the first time you run the new version telling you Enginuity is creating a new settings file.

Bug fixes are listed in the changes below. A memory usage issue still exists in 0.2.7b which. Opening or refreshing several images will continue to result in increased memory usage, even after an image is closed. This bug will be looked in to and should be fixed for the next release.
