At 25 years old, Oscar Zelaya is the youngest guest we’ve ever had on the HPA Tuned In podcast. Listening to this in-depth, tech-heavy conversation you’d never know it, though. Use ‘PODCAST75’ for $75 off your first HPA course here: https://hpcdmy.co/hpa-tuned-inWith a background in mechanical engineering and a strong interest in motorsport electronics, Oscar has made a big impact in the motorsport community over the last few years.After leaving university and walking straight into a role with MoTeC USA, Oscar has since taken a leap of faith and now runs his own business, Zelaya Brothers, which offers a range of services from product development, to powertrain calibration, vehicle electronics solutions, and more. With Oscar’s large breadth of knowledge and skills in mind, this is a wide-ranging discussion that focuses on the nittier, grittier aspects of reverse engineering factory electronics, building custom firmware, working with CAN bus, and a lot more.Oscar also talks us through his involvement with the Hoonicorn and Hoonipigasus projects — in particular, what it takes to convert the methanol-fed Mustang from hillclimber to what is essentially a drag car.The emerging field of transmission calibration also features in this discussion, with Oscar explaining the intricacies of tuning modern sequential paddle-shifted transmissions and how to get the most out of them.Finishing off the chat with a look into the challenges of starting a company in this industry at such a young age, there’s a whole lot of interesting information well worth sinking your teeth into in this episode. Listen to the Sander Marques’ episode here: https://hpcdmy.co/obsidianFollow Zelaya Brothers here:IG: @zelayabrothersFB: @Zelaya BrothersWWW: zelayabros.comWant to learn how to work with CAN bus?
