I thought, assuming the FCD uses the same naming conventions as the EIDS that you'd need the 'Type K' version. However, I'm not sure.

My first response would be however to question why you want a FCD? Have you got a way of monitoring your fuelling to ensure that you won't lean out and go pop?

Still the same question ?? If you haven't got anyway of monitoring AFR's then it is not a good idea..

this FCD its for the ecu´s car not to shut down the engine on high boost pressure.

And you won't hold more than 14psi of Boost on Standard Turbo's

what is a AFR? woodjno, iam crazy looking for a ECU that i can tuned my engine with, for this car, but i cant find it any where, i got a friend in japana who suggest me the trust emanage, but i think this is a piggy back

[bradc]

Wodj is right, if you don't have a way of monitoring your AFR then it isn't a good idea at all, because you just don't know what is going to happen!

AFR = air to fuel ratio

[ARPN]

im planing to run my car with 0.8 bar and 55 shot of nitrous, i think im goin to need the fcd and the speed limit defencer, what do you think wodjno?

AFR is Air Fuel Ratio... And you don't want this going to Lean or Bang Go's your Engine

I have an E-manage fitted to my car and yes your right it is a Piggy..

You can fit alsorts of ECU to your car ?? At the end of the day an engines an engine and can be mapped with any ECU whether Piggy or Standalone..

There is a group buy on A MAP ECU on this site at the moment.. I'll post the link in a minute..

But you will still have to take it somewhere to get it tuned..

[ARPN]

[ARPN]

[ARPN]

i can get it tuned that no problem, the think is, that a piggy wont let me manage many things on the engine.

[Wodjno]

Stock Turbo's

Boost on high Peeking at 1.2 and holding 1bar to 5000rpm and then settling back to 0.95 bar by redline ...

[ARPN]

[Wodjno]
