I think it is reasonable. Keep in mind 40 rps is only 2400 rpm far lower than most car engines. Even for diesel engines that is not an especially high rpm, it depends on the cylinder bore, eg a semi truck engine runs around 2400-4600 rpm, some massive diesel engines in ships turn at 80 rpm for the long stroke massive bore kind.

maybe an ECU that can manage the transmissions to travel as efficiently as possible at a set speed by finding optimal gear ratios and maintaining an efficient rps to power balance instead of waiting to reach a certain rps to up/downshift. in tinkering with workshop creations I've been able to more than double the efficiency of some vehicles by messing with gear ratios and engine power output. I don't know how good it would be for the new modular engines but I would love an ECU like that.

so, you only want to run your engines at a stoichiometric of 0.2 (best power/fuel, best power/heat, best power overall). you need an afr of 13.6+clamp(temperature*0.004,0,0.4) there is no case where you want to run your engine at any other stoichiometric.

The clutch (it is attached to gearbox controller) activated by default for some reason. And of course, there's not enough rps to start the engine with fuel and air. Once I disconnect a number value from a clutch, the engine starts working properly. So i don't know what to do

don’t know 100% sure, but my guess would be that maybe you’re over stressing the engine? try adding another gearbox that’s pointed at the engine and set 1 to something like 1:3 and 2 to 1:1 and set that as your first gear, that way your engine has to work 3 times less hard to start up and not instandly killing it and making it use the starter to keep it’s RPS high enough (again though, just a thought, i haven’t actually used any of the modular engine stuff yet, this is just what i’d assume it to be since that’s how it would work on a real engine)

The title of the video is "NJ Modular Engine ECU & Transmission tutorial" but it isn't a tutorial on how to build an effective ECU in the game, just how to use his specific ECU. He's done this several times now. The modular engine tutorial is about the only actual tutorial he's done in quite a long time, despite tagging his videos as a "Tutorial." I am well aware of how to make a modular engine run, that's not the point. It's that he is falsely tagging his videos as tutorials when they are not, for clicks.
