Alas, only for even fire (or 'normal') setups. There are only a few ECUs on the market that have oddfire capability, mainly because only a couple of cars have that 'problem'. :?

Its an oddfire engine, with offset cam timing. Very difficult and very expensive to sort out.

My engine is oddfire 2850cc with injection ,do you think there would be power and torque gains if I used the same throttle body setup on an even fire 2850cc engine.

Your running an Autronic system which does odd fire if I remember. Power could be gained from the equal cam timing across the banks on the even fire engine versus the odd fire, so every induction stroke is identical. Marginal gains, but would be smoother though..
