^^^ ohhh noessssss

LMFAO !!!

your good Mike and so are the other people who have paid

EDIT: Post was meant for Noober

KN_TL...your most welcome here man....sorry about the whole agitated thing earlier....
Rodney did tell me about the day to day responsibilities he had and since I sit my ass on a desk, i told him dude, i will manage the GB and hence got a feeler thread together and converted it into a GB....people who are using this ECU are Andy, yourself, Brandon, TLDREAM, Bert and we need to learn as much as from you....so lets be harmonious as i said before and make the best of this thread and ECU

Sounds good. This thread should be just for purchasing and not anything technical.

I don't know if the mods agree but smaller more specific threads might be more helpful especially for search and reference purposes after the fact. Then once resolved, just end them with a resolution and start a new one if it's not related.

These single threads turn into monsters that have no meaning unless you read everything. And then there are some discussions that turn out like ours and ruin it for everyone.

^^^ Yes....i agree....

the reason this thread got technical is because people wanted to know what they are getting and getting into, which IMO makes perfect sense....but once everyone gets their ECU you will see "build" and "progress" thread floating around

What I would suggest is that each one of you create your own threads after you receive your units. There are way too many variables and things like Swampy changing things after Rodney configured it a different way is just going to lead to disaster.

Also, there is a lot of garage/misconceptions being stated that can be better handled individually.

I am not here to bash anyone and I also apologize for losing it recently.

Rodney has a full time job, a baby on the way and a ton of work with this business he is trying to get going. As I said before and I'll say it again, he is one person doing some remarkable things. He is not AEM, HKS or the like with massive resources and deep pockets.

Let's try to keep these discussions as clean as possible and stop posting summary entries of each persons interpretation if what was stated.
Kn first off thank you for deciding go give the ecu thread some well meeded info ,now kn has always been helping me from the start with absolutely nothing to gain ,so I would really appreciate we listen to his advise as he is using ecu again lets make some progress on this thread as id love to see progress again I will have an install video and instructions weve calibrated ecu for n/a application so there's no need for vacum line on n/a application ......

^^^ you pass at reading....

i think earlier (couple months back) this calibration was missing....when i spoke to Rodney in December about the ECU he told me "all you gotta do is connect a hose from Vac port to ECU through the firewall".....

I hope this calibration will apply to my ecu when it comes to me

Yep, this feature must work using a fixed or "throttle position @ xxxx rpm" based value to guesstimate vacuum. Interesting...but....hmmmmm

Rodney, you need to call me about this. haha

I will be on later to explain ,the Ms3 can use the oem map sensor or the map sensor within Ms3 of course we have to config each box before it goes out for either map sensor ,NOW FOR N/A APPLICATION THERES NO NEED FOR VACUM HOSE REASON BEHIND THIS NOT ALL MEMEBER HAS AFTERMARKET MOUNTS WHAT DOES MOUNTS HAVE TO DO WITH ECU ? Well withoem mounts tgeres literally no provision to connect vacum hose unless you get a vacum distribution block which then would leave us with more ports or p2r throttle body spacer ,(has a provision vacum port ) ....the tl only has two vacum ports of the manifold one brake booster ,next is for oem mounts WE CANNOT Tee INTO The PROVISION For THE OEM MOUNTS CANNOT AND WILL NOT GET CORRECT READING NEEDED TO RUN ECU ........FOR BOOSTED APPLICATIONS WE DO RUN VACUM HOSE AND USE THE MS3 MAP SENSOR AS IT IS ABLE TO READ A LOT MORE BOOST PRESSURE THAN OEM MAP SENSOR .............

I thought the same thing at first but when you said they couldn't use the TPS it had me all confused as well.

Interesting that he's finding ways to make these things much easier for people to install.

I installed my gauges on my a-pillar trim. Big mistake. Every teeny bopper with a subie seemed to zoom in on that. So I just bought a replacement and I am going to move mine down to the steering column.

The gauges on the column is the way to go. Just make sure the placement is right. The shop that did mine did a great job of blocking the least amount of the stock cluster as possible.
I can post some pics later. How many gauges are you running?

Right now I have a AEM UEGO and an AEM Tru-Boost using it as an expensive boost gauge.

I'm looking into replacing these with a Zeitronix unit. You can use one multi-gauge to display both boost and A/F ratio in a really slim gauge.

how did you like the AEM UEGO controller ? as in was it pretty accurate and worked without a problem ? the reason i ask i am planning to buy it and wanted to get some feedback from someone who has already used it....

page 5....i think the mods updated the first post as well....

i know Justn's 6MT with PCD's and Jpipe made ~241, we know that combo (jpipe and PCD's) makes ~30hp so stock 6MT = ~211hp

stock (intake and greddy exhaust) 6MT with stock ECU made ~224hp (if i remember correctly) and after the ecu the I/E 6MT was ~247....

i would think the intake and exhaust makes (224-211) ~10-12hp at the most....

hope i answered your question in all possible manners

DO EEEETTTT....

remember to pay to the new paypal id else you wont get your ECU

I will repeat cliffs of what i said in the PM:

"ECU should work, different harness needed, post on thread for more informative people to provide more accurate data"



PS: Hispeed those gauges looks like SEXXXXXX

Why aren't you asleep dude? Aren't you scheduled for a turbocharged road trip this weekend?

For me, learning about the ecu is just an academic pursuit. But if Rodney makes the ecu able to control the 5AT with the ability for producing lightening quick gear changes and to quit cutting the throttle between shifts, I will be customer #1 for that revised model.

No problems. Just make sure the bung is installed correctly. I've read mixed reviews but you never really know what actually went wrong. I imagine people are killing these things at the sensor end and blaming the gauge.

I am looking for a more compact solution. There was one of HiSpeed's pictures that showed one of the thin gauges foam taped in between the factory openings. I won't do that but want that for more flexibility. They can also display two different sensors on one gauge and can flip things around on the fly.
