what ecu would ye recommend? like everyone im on a budget so i dont wanna be forkin out serious grade for the ecu and then get me eyes takin outa me head to get it re-mapped,
the car is only basic enough spec, FMIC, filter, walbro, 550 injectors, elbow, exhaust,
i was gonna go nistune but id prefer a standalone and a proper RR setup......
Hks f-com iS. Great unit, keenly priced and i think Tdp are doin a special on mapping this month
cheers mick, have been onto robbie alryt just waiting on em to get back to me,
no point mapping that unless you uprate the turbo. . . . .
care to explain?
Aren't they Ceramic bladed turbos and only rated to a bar or there abouts
Should see around 240-250 on standard tubby once its in decent condion
why wouldnt he map it?, it will be 20-30 brake extra that he had before!:confused: always scope for bigger turbo down the line.
nistune is same as a standalone sure, fully programmable, as good as and better than power fc in my opinion. i sold my ap engineering rb20 power fc , to get a nistune instead.Quote:

yeah they ceramic alryt tweek, i dont even know if they will hold a bar though, dont really have the grade to buy another expensive turbo, just wanted to lob in the bigger injectors and get it re-mapped make her a bit more lively,
are you runnin an aftermarket ecu micko?
Yeah its the Fcon iS. It is only a piggyback but does the job rightly. Good bang for buck. Would run an Fcon gold if money was more plentyful!lol
Go hx30 I know where there is one for sale.nistune is the best bang for buck out there and miles safer than powerfc in my opinion
When you say standalone what do you mean omex link motec etc??
yeah t.j thats what i meant, hks fcon/omex/motec that type of a jobbie, i reckon il just go the nistune route ta fook, once its mapped and runnin sound thats all i want, i change my mind like the weather hahaQuote:

yeh i know what yer sayin, what ecu ya running on the track car? much monies on that hx30 outa curiosity? pm if ya want
On a budget, Nistune, Simples.
nistune
ask calicages racing on here for a spin of his the next day in portlaoise same kinda setup as u on the car
btw evo injectors will fit into your car and r 560s if u havent already bought the 550s
i got my8 for 70euro deleived
hav a set of sard ones here on the rail. Gud info to know tho podge. Wuda saved myself a few squid.
I can do you a link G4 plugin £800 then £400 to map or a Nistune supplied fitted and mapped on the rollers £580ish
stiv does nistune supplied and mapped 450 euro
sorry for hijack but cud someone explain how and what the nistune are actually adjusting??

The ceramic blade turbo is rated to 0.8 bar. You will be taking a chance at 1 bar but there's no power at 0.8!
did you run standard ceramic turbo lad? I myt pick up a standard rb25 turbo coz my one has a bit of play so a good condition rb25 might handle the boost better.
Ya standard rb20 tubby. I've had a few different turbos on it now but the 20 turbo is sound. S15 and 2871r bb turbos blew in minutes due to oil surge problems but the 20 turbo is still going strong
300 is not great with an ecu and a bar of boost,, the boss (Robbie TDP) got 288fbhp 250whp and 290ft/lb out of my near standard 32 yesterday at .9 bar,, the car has a boost controller, fuel controller, exhaust, filter and front mount and that's it!!! Standard other than that,,, a fpr and adj actuator would do same job as the controllers and cheaper it's just they were in the car when I bought it.
And trust me it's every bit of the horsepower, tested it well last nite!!
What would it be on a dyno dynamics roller though???Quote:

But I do know what hp my skyline is and anyone can drive it to see,,Quote:
