OK so firstly heres the link.
http://www.ecumaster.co.uk/products/digital-ecu-tuner-3
Available for £200 or just under on eBay with a 2.5 bar map sensor (4 bar available)
Looks like its very similar to the MAP-ECU product but a third of the price.
Will allow me to remove the air flow meter and fit MAP ;-)
Does ignition control, great I can use the second map tables to advance my ignition for LPG :-) - Does anyone on here know what crank pick up our cars uses 60-2, 36-2 etc??
Allows 4 analog inputs
2 switchable maps
2 PWM outputs - boost solenoid control would of course be on one of these :-)
internal flash memory for logging.
Would also allow complete control of the injectors rather than just modifying the signal that the original ECU sees (this would mean closed loop would be lost and that they would be fired in two batches of three injectors. Would that cause a problem, can't see one myself but others might please advise)
Seems like quite a good bit of kit. What do you recon.
Now I know you are going to say why bother when our ECU's are flashable. Well I'm looking at the cost side of it as well. I want to be able to tune myself. I know the risks but with a wideband, a knock sensor and a healthy knowledge and understanding of most things engine / electrical I am happy to do so. I will of course make only small changes at a time and with logging ability as well will have lots of data to look at after runs etc.
So cost of buying the kit to flash my 7201 ECU I think last time I looked was over £200. Plus I can't mod it I really need a 7202 which generally sell for about £200, and sell quickly lol
And I think I would still be limited to my MAF. So for me at the moment it looks good and I'm quite happy to install and give you guys a review if no one else has used one yet. But thought I would throw it about on here first as someone might have already found reasons why it will not work.
