Just Had My Car Dyno'd

[Blizzerd]

So its pretty much stock S2 stagea with blitz air filter and exhaust with sbc i colour, i have a little box in the passenger footwell with SIDC box???

it has a mines ecu with :

Fuel mapping has been changed

Ignition timing adjusted

Speed limiter cut

Rev limiter raised plus(+) 300rpm

Guys at autoworx recomending i get a new fuel pump.

I want to get a new ecu as it is.

here is dyno sheet, i believe this is on mid level boost....

[wolverine]

Nistune it and you can sort out that fueling.

[Blizzerd]

but nistune is a piggyback yes?

[wht510]

Nope.

It is kind of like a piggy back but is sort of like a completely new ECU. It is additional 'address space' and kind of interrupts the factory default values and is placed inside the factory ECU.

This basically allows you to have full adjustment of pretty much everything via the consult port via some cheap laptop software downloaded from the nistune website. For example, I can now change the Thermo fan set point which was usually an 'emergency thermo' for my SR20DET. I've removed the factory clutch fan and now the ECU takes care of cooling duties!

I am shocked at how low that is

[Blizzerd]

yeah its getting really hot in perth too so

[JOHNNNY]

hay man that mines ecu you have the best thing to do with it is to remove it and throw it in the bin !!!!! my mate had one in his 33 and it caused all kinds of problems for him and never tuned properly , and would always lean out on a high boost setting and could never hold a smooth AFR for some unknown reason . seriously man the best thing to to is to spend the 400 bucks on a nistune daughter board installed into a STD ecu and all your problems will be solved . my s2 before i installed the nistune was pulling 235 hp on 10 psi , and 2.5 exhaust std cooler and turbo smart boost tee . now i have a 3'' exhaust , FMIC and coustom intake setup , but i havent had it tuned yet because of getting hit in the ass by a stupid ford driver and having to get it fixed but now i have it back so it should be all go after christmas , and im hoping for around 290 -320 hp at all fours with a goog tuner . cheers spinner ..

[Blizzerd]

that sounds like the way to go,

[vic stagea mick]

there is a tread about nistune for stageas there worth the money if you plan on doing a few more mods i have 1... stock turbo 9psi and hks exhaust 164 rwkw got 20rwkw increase from nistune

See if this one's still for sale - I think he wanted $400 for the ecu c/w nistune chip - you could just plug it in an get a tune.

+1

$450 I recall for the ECU.

Thats if its still available. The thread was killed by some non-buyers tearing at it.

[bubba]

The board itself is about $280, a single user license for the NIStune software is $200 I think (you don't need this, it's only if you want to be able to fiddle with stuff yourself, or ask me to do it ) - both purchased straight from NIStune.

Carton of beer to a competent electronics technician to install the board.

Then find your tuner of choice (I can recommend Hyperdrive and Allstar Garage) and pay by the hour for tuning. Shouldn't take too long as it's pretty much stock.

[Blizzerd]

[bubba]

Yes, correct.

[lilcrash]

[Blizzerd]

2900 for a vipec installed and tuned....

WAY TOOO MUCH!
