Staged Injection

# Staged Injection
## Overview
Speeduino has the ability to control a secondary fuel stage for engines that have 2 sets of injectors, typically of different capacities. There are few stock engines that come with secondary injectors, the notable exception being many Mazda rotaries. Secondary staged injection is also a common modification, used whenever large injectors are required, but where it is desirable to keep smaller injectors for smoother low RPM performance.
### Configuration
No matter which control strategy is chosen, you must enter the sizing of the primary and secondary injectors in order to allow Speeduino to know the split in the overall fuelling.
> **CRITICAL** - The req-Fuel value in the [Engine Constants](Engine_Constants "wikilink") MUST be updated when staged injection is turned on. **When staging is in use, the value entered in the req_fuel calculator MUST be equal to the sum of both the primary and secondary injector sizes**
> Failure to set these values correctly will result in excessive rich or lean conditions.

### Control methods
Speeduino provides 2 staging control modes, each with their own strengths and weaknesses. In most cases it is recommended to start with the Automatic mode, which only requires tuning of the standard VE table, and reviewing to see if you get the desired outcome. Only if this can't be tuned to give a satisfactory fuel split would changing to the manual table tuning be recommended.
#### Table control
Table control allows the use of a manual 8x8 map that indicates what percentage of the fuel load will be performed by the **secondary** injectors
- 0% = Secondary injectors disabled
- 100% = Primary injectors disabled

One disadvantage of the table tuning method is that it does not allow for the full fuel load of the primary and secondary injectors to be used simultaneously. As the table is a split of the total fuel load, as one set of injectors performs more, the other will perform less.
#### Automatic staging
Speeduino has an automatic staging method that takes into account the full capacity of the injectors (ie the sum of the 2 injector stages) and will perform a split of these itself. With this method, the user can simply tune the VE table in the same manner as if only a single set of injectors were used and the system takes care of the rest.
In this mode, Speeduino will attempt to use the primary injectors up to their 'Injector Duty Limit' (As configured in the [Injector Characteristics](Injector_Characteristics "wikilink") dialog. When staging is being used, it is recommend that this limit should be no higher than 85%. Once the primary injectors reach this duty limit, Speeduino will begin to perform any further fueling from the secondary injectors. In this way, the VE table is all that is required for tuning as the system will take care of allocating the current fuel load to the best injectors.
