Motec

[Gts-t]

As per the topic how many people on here use motec? Im really interested to know just how costly it is and what they think of it.

[ish]

i have had my motec M8 installed in an R32 GTR but took it with me when i sold the car.

Motec offer probably the most hi tec features available for the track and the street but you have to remember that none of it comes cheap...

What you get is basicly an After market ECU with basic features enabled allowing controling of engine mapping etc and a certain amount of logging time to make these adjustments .

Where Motec starts to seperate its self from the other Ecus is it is can be opened up futher feature wise at a cost giving more serious racing features... Wideband Lambda, Constant Logging, Launch Control, Boost control, Gearcut ,Telemetry and so on!

As far as cost goes thats very hard to say .

After purchasing the right ECU for your needs you have to sought of know what your wanting from your ECU to determine if it needs to be fully installed or piggybacked deppending on what you want it to control .... each feature can cost different amounts or become enabled in groups....

i will have a look though my old tuning reciepts and mail to give yo a bit better idea

My M8 came off a touring car with every feature enabled Very luck find

Hope this Helps abit

Thanks for the reply, ive had a read thru the pdf's from the motec site on the m48 ecu and understand the features and such. Ill give them a a call tomorrow and check out the prices.

I guess more than anything i just want to see who here has it as you dont read or hear to much. Obviously this isnt a problem for gtr owners but pfc prices for hcr32 are getting up there, especially when u factor in the extra cost of the datalogit software.

Edit: just checked out the pricing thanks for that. I think the ecu that would be suitable is the m48 clubman, that can be upgraded to the pro in the future if it was needed. At 2400 including software it is pretty attractive depending on how many extras i need to buy to get it running. However if i can sell my afm and ebc that might help soften the blow a little
