The FuelTech FT470 is a new generation standalone ECU from FuelTech's Vision line. One unit can run anything from a motorcycle engine to a sequential V8 with drive-by-wire throttle, depending on the application. There is no screen on the box: tuning and the dash run in the free FuelTech Vision app on your phone, tablet, Android head unit or computer. The FT470 runs the engine on its own, so the car keeps running if the device is off or disconnected.
The wideband conditioner is built into the ECU, so the O2 sensor wires straight to it. Every FuelTech Vision feature is unlocked, with no per-feature licenses and free software updates.
Features
- Integrated wideband O2 conditioner for Bosch LSU 4.2, 4.9, 5.2 and NTK sensors. No external module.
- Internal 7 bar absolute MAP sensor (1 bar of vacuum plus 6 bar, about 87 psi, of boost), with boost control and electronic wastegate control.
- 20 outputs, all usable as auxiliaries, for example 8 injection, 8 ignition and 4 half bridge. Unused outputs convert to inputs (Flex IO): 7 dedicated inputs plus crank and cam, up to 27 inputs in total.
- A complete 4 cylinder on a single ECU: sequential injection, ignition, drive-by-wire, variable cam, fuel pump and progressive nitrous.
- Injection time or volumetric efficiency (VE) fuel model, native flex fuel and up to 3 port injection stages. Closed loop fueling with optional VE self learning.
- Direct injection capable with high pressure pump control (2 pump outputs). The PH-HV injector driver is sold separately.
- Accelerometer and gyroscope inside for launch analysis and traction control.
- Strain gauge shifter input and gear controller built in, no extra box.
- Active traction control, flat shift, transbrake, progressive and staged nitrous, boost control, MFI timers and automatic transmission control (depending on application).
- Drag racing time based compensations, with the log overlaid at the launch and up to 4 plots side by side.
- Race report in FuelTech Vision 3.0: a PDF of your race weekend built from your logs.
- Datalogger with 16x the memory of the PowerFT line, up to 100 Hz, math channels and per channel sampling. Records 45 h 20 min with 24 channels at 25 Hz.
- Custom functions with 38 block types. User defined CAN with DBC import and export on 2 CAN FD networks.
- Factory CAN integration on select applications: wheel speeds and buttons come in over CAN, and RPM goes back to the factory cluster. Other applications can be set up with custom CAN.
- Live knock monitoring (1 sensor), 46 engine protection alert types with 3 actions and 4 safety modes, and a 4 channel oscilloscope.
- Idle control by ignition timing, stepper motor, drive-by-wire or PWM valve. Up to 4 variable camshafts, depending on free inputs and outputs.
- Up to 4 fully customizable dashboards and real time map editing over USB-C or the built-in Wi-Fi.
- Coming from a PowerFT ECU: FuelTech Vision 3.0 imports PowerFT maps, and adapter harnesses are offered for FT450 and FT550 upgrades.

Fitment
Universal standalone ECU. Fitment depends on the application and the harness used. Harness options include complete harnesses for LS engines, universal 4 and 6 cylinder engines and 10 speed automatic transmissions (10R and 10L), unterminated harnesses, a connector kit, and adapter harnesses for FT450 and FT550 upgrades.
Before You Order
- Wideband O2 sensor (Bosch LSU 4.2, 4.9, 5.2 or NTK) is sold separately.
- Direct injection requires the PH-HV injector driver, sold separately.
- GPS lap timing requires the external GPS module, sold separately.
- Low impedance injectors (below 7 ohms), or more injectors than the outputs support, require an external peak and hold driver.
What's Included
- 1 FuelTech FT470 ECU
- The selected harness or connector kit, if a harness option is chosen
