EVCU-1 Programmable Controller

The Capristo EVCU-1 Programmable Controller (Article No. 04AZ 007 03 011) represents the pinnacle of exhaust valve management technology. This "Export Version" is specifically engineered for drivers who demand total control over their vehicle's acoustic profile and engine performance, bypassing factory restrictions to unlock the true sound of high-performance powerplants.

The Intelligence of Back Pressure Monitoring

Unlike basic remote switches, the EVCU-1 is a smart controller that utilizes integrated back pressure monitoring.

• Dynamic Protection: The system constantly measures the pressure within the exhaust tract. If back pressure reaches a critical threshold that could risk engine overheating or power loss, the EVCU-1 automatically overrides any manual settings to open the valves.

• Torque Optimization: By maintaining the ideal amount of back pressure at lower RPMs and opening for maximum flow at high RPMs, the controller ensures the engine maintains its torque curve while delivering peak horsepower.

Operational Modes & Remote Control

The kit includes a high-quality remote control that allows the driver to toggle between three distinct operating states:

1. Cruise Mode: The valves are programmed to remain closed longer, opening only at higher back pressure levels. This is ideal for highway driving and maintaining a refined cabin environment.

2. Sport Mode: The valves open at a lower pressure threshold, providing an aggressive exhaust note and sharper throttle response earlier in the rev range.

3. Open Mode: Forces the valves into a permanently open state for an unrestricted, raw soundtrack—perfect for track use or spirited tunnel runs.
