Safari ARMAX ECU to suit Ford Ranger PX2 / Everest UA 3.2L (Piezo Injectors)

Description

Overview

Unlock responsive, reliable power with the Safari ARMAX ECU kit for Ford Ranger PX2 and Everest UA 3.2L TDCi. Engineered in Australia, this advanced control module integrates seamlessly with the factory ECU through an OE-style harness and delivers precise fuel and boost control via the vehicle’s piezo injectors. The system offers five selectable maps directly from the cabin and safeguards your engine with advanced protection strategies, including EGT and torque management. When paired with the ARMAX snorkel, Safari reports gains of up to +25% power and +40% torque on PX MkII/MkIII platforms — all while maintaining factory reliability, smooth drivability, and optimal injector performance under every driving condition.

Piezo Injectors Integration

The Ford 3.2L TDCi engine in both Ranger PX2 and Everest UA platforms uses piezoelectric injectors—high-precision fuel delivery components that enable rapid multiple injections per combustion cycle for improved efficiency, lower emissions, and smoother performance. The Safari ARMAX ECU is fully compatible with this advanced injector technology, providing:

• Precision Fuel Control: Fine-tuned calibration ensures precise injector pulse timing for optimal combustion.
• Improved Throttle Response: Faster injector actuation allows the ECU to deliver more responsive acceleration across selectable maps.
• Reliability and Safety: Advanced diagnostics protect against over-fuelling, excessive pressure, and injector overrun conditions.
• Enhanced Efficiency: When tuned correctly, piezo injector modulation can result in smoother torque delivery and reduced fuel usage.

Safari’s ARMAX software communicates directly with the piezo injector circuitry via the OE harness, maintaining full compatibility with the vehicle’s existing ECU safeguards and CAN bus protocols. This integration ensures both factory reliability and tuned performance are retained without compromise.
