Which ECU would you use??

[Stevo]

i'd say he makes more monies on mapping PFC's etc, if he's started doin nistune people would chose nistune over PFC = less monies for him its called business . i understand him. cant blame him for that really

Mapping session on the rollers is same price as doing a pfc or any other ecu afaik

Don't want to sound like a prick but that is wrong Dan. The nistune is a daughterboard that is soldered into the stock ECU to make it possible to adjust all the parameters of it. They will actually see knock and do something with it if it gets to a dangerous level. A PFC won't do this.

Nistune is just as good as a PFC IMHO. I have not seen a nistune losing its map yet either, have seen a number of PFCs doing this.

i second this, nistune does everything a power fc can do.... and more. and its safer IMO

A map is a map, why would you charge differentley for mapping one ECU over the other?

That looks like a cheap Copy turbo, is it?

Power FC/Nistune shouldn't make any difference, its the person mapping it that makes the difference.

xs power kit,is it,maybe a t70,
both your nistune or power fc will both tune your car,with the above setup,i done a similar setup lately on sr20 using a emange,and no issue,so to cut it short,both your power fc or nistune will both map your car,without an issue,

iv this ecu, the only place iv found that can map it is couture auto, its already mapped for a redtop sr20 that had bigger injectors and a s15 turbo. Im not sure if ill keep it or get another one.

I'd put a lot of money on a bet with you that no one in this country could map that f-con cos it's too old and no one has the software for the older ones

it seems ive opened a can of worms on the nistune!!!

reasons why i don't like the nistune is i have yet to see a car been used for even near a year with the nistune
now im not goin to say that no one has,but no one i know has!!
im not looking to start an argument on this it is my personal prefrence to go pfc as ive seen the results when i see a car making gud power for a couple of years on a nistune then i might warm to them but most people using them are running near stock setups and anyone i know using one on a car with gud spec are not seen the kind of power that ive seen cars using the likes of the pfc make!!!
nw at the end of the day the power fc is still shit as engine management gos but as its already been said its about wat kind of money you ave to spend!!!!
and with the diff of buying a pfc and the nistune been fuk al id ave the pfc over it!! i understand der been no knock ajusment on the pfc but at the end of the day unless ur using a shit tuner this should not be a prob!!!

as for the power fc,ive seen cars run for years on one map on the pfc
for example kev kendrgans s13 running for 3 full years on the same stepup at 380bhp with no probs wat so ever!!
