What is a Holley Terminator X?

Image
 Holley Terminator X Holley Terminator X The Holley Terminator X is a standalone engine management system designed for use with high performance vehicles. This system is fully programmable and comes with a user-friendly handheld interface for easy on the go changes. The system is also quite known for it's "self-tuning" capabilities. It comes with a wideband oxygen sensor for adjusting fuel to a targeted Air/Fuel Ratio (AFR), which the computer learns and saves to the computers fuel tables.  In addition to it's self-tuning capabilities, the system also allows for numerous inputs and outputs for various sensors and solenoids on performance applications. This Terminator X also has a version named Terminator X max which allows for control of automatic transmissions. Can I use E85 with a Holley Terminator X? Yes, the supplied Wideband Sensor is E85 compatible and the Holley Terminator X has multiple options for fuel types. It also has inputs to allow for a fuel composition...

Oxygen Sensors vs Wideband Sensors

Oxygen Sensors vs Wideband Sensors: Understanding the Differences and Which One to Use Narrowband Oxygen Sensors A narrowband oxygen sensor, also known as a linear oxygen sensor or a zirconia oxygen sensor, is a type of oxygen sensor commonly used in internal combustion engines. It is used to measure the amount of oxygen present in the exhaust gas, which indicates the air-fuel ratio of the engine. The sensor typically works by measuring the voltage generated by a chemical reaction between the oxygen in the exhaust gas and a ceramic material, typically zirconia, inside the sensor. The voltage generated is proportional to the amount of oxygen present in the exhaust gas. Narrowband oxygen sensors have a limited range of measurement and can typically only determine whether the air-fuel ratio is rich or lean, but not the precise ratio. It is generally less expensive than the wideband sensors and used for the purpose of measuring the air-fuel ratio of the engine for basic engine tuning and m...
