I'm willing to learn how to map and tweak the car over the years

 

Apart from the physical difference what do each of these boards offer

 

Nothing first one v1/2 second v3/4

 

Yours being a 97/98 then you can get motorsport pack unlike the 92/96

 

what options can I get with the motorsport kit.my ecu and reciever came this morning

 

als/lc/ffs/tc.
all info including the user manual are available on the ESL site.

 

doesn't launch control run through the abs .

 

In what way would it be anything to do with abs?

 

Ah unless you mean als?
lc and als are 2 separate systems,I have my lc on all the time and als on a switch.

Edit: and both can be tweaked to be more or less aggressive if you wanted.

 

I thought it was messing traction when pulling away stop the wheels spinning

 

No does nothing to the brakes.
some late spark,enrich fuel,holds at the rpm you set it to,builds boost and off you go
doubt your 5 speed would last long tho?

 

I will pass on that then

 

lol I only got it because it was a package deal,I've never launched the car and als novelty wears off,although I do use it on bonfire night and when someone is driving up my ****

 

lol . I'm waiting on Duncan or Andy carr to get back to me now. Do you no what the uk2000 clutch would take?

 

I'm sure people have been over 300bhp but it's the torque that'll kill it,also 3rd gear is known for eating it's cogs at bigger power.
every car and driver are different so it's how long is a piece of string question really.

 

so I could make 300 and keep the torque down to save my box?

 

Could be mapped for less torque but less torque=less fun
uk box has longer gearing afaik so in theory you should be able to create a different power band which is easier on the gearbox.
BUT modifying and power increase always carry a risk of catastrophic damage lol
AND choose your mapper carefully
I have no recommendations btw.

 

hmm alot to think about. I think the mappers I've emailed must be really busy I've heard nothing as of yet

 

Never mind all that for it'll not matter if it won't go. Does it go yet

 

I got the stuff delivered to work first thing. So should start as soon as I plug it in I will no later this evening

 

Here's hoping good luck

 

I'm gonna need the luck lol .

 

some positive news at least.
Do some research,email or ring some other tuners and don't be shy about traveling for the right mapper.

 

do many tunners map esl

 

It runs

 

 

Just needs mapping now and turn the immobilizer off

 

Nice one

 

Thanks

 

Do you map your own car or do you no how or do you just data log
