pump the tyres up another 10 psi and it would show 310bhp.... its down to how it is on the road, dont take dyno figures as a given

 

I'm not. I didn't pay any extra to have PPP and it has a sportscat and prodrive back box so there's still the upgrade there.

Would you not be able to completely reflash it from scratch ???

 

Nope - the only options are to buy a new ecu & sell your PPP'ed ecu on or get it ecutek tuned.

 

ahaaaaaaaaaaaa hence why you see the PPPd ecus for sale on ebay !!!

nice

thanks

 

Ask someone with another STI if thay fancy swaping ECUs, they get a PPPd one and you can get their one flashed

 

I wonder why Prodrive have used Ecutek for so many years ?

I don't really

 

So are you saying 'you' (ie you) would get better results using Ecutek than using Open Source?

 

I think andy is saying he knows why Prodrive have used Ecutek for some years now.

How is the open source effort going with 2008 cars? Ecutek does it now.

 

I have no idea Paul. I am only using it to access 2006/7 ECU.

I guess it will be some time before anyone in the wider OS community has a requirement to get the xml definitions done for the ECU partly because, as you know, it takes some time to disassemble the hex tables and partly because there arent many on the roads.

Anyway, by that time I will be using Simtek and enjoying live mapping switcheable heaven

 

and antilag & launch control

 

Which of course is another feature available via Ecutek for many models.

 

launch control??

 

Yes all 2.0 UK/Euro Sti and JDM Sti models from 2001 onwards

 

learn something new everyday.

 

2.5s???

 

It is an additional cost though isnt it Andy ?

 

Not if you ask nicely Duncan.

The 2008 car uses a completely different ECU design, hardware and all, and a completely different comms canbus based protocol. It's not just a case of sorting tables.

 

Wtf?? LOL. Just talk in Swahili! Hahaha. I cannae understand any of that me lad! Comms can of beans what?

 

nono he said coms can o bus......what is a can of bus?

 

No, its std at no extra cost, as is the twin map high/low boost set up on all MY01-07 2.0 cars, WRX or Sti.

 

what about the 2.5sti ?!?!?

 

There is more mapping time though I assume ? (I dont know how you charge for this, maybe this is built into the flat rate - if it is then it is a great deal )

 

I had Launch Control and High/Low setup by AF. Standard practice i believe.

Go Ecutek!

Now all i want is swicthable ALS and i'll be a very happy man.
(might even come back for Ps 'n Bs added back on, i miss the noise! )

 

would be interesting to remap a standard ppp 2.5 sti when the 2.0 sti ppp transforms so well

Sorry mate, I missed that. Its your thread and you're getting ignored !

Not currently available on the DBW cars ie the 2.5 WRX or 2.5 Sti

Andy

 

Had Mr Simtek playing with the connectors and testing my ECU yesterday so hopefully not too long before a Simtek solution is available for the DBW cars

 

I'm guessing mines a DBW ... what's a DBW ...lol

 

Drive By Wire - electronic throttle rather than cable

 

Having Andy L and Steve S down at ours on Saturday , have arranged for a DBW car to be available for the day so they can have a play with one in one piece...
The owner is also fairly keen to upgrade to the SimTek the moment it becomes available , this will go with his GT30 hybrid we are fitting and mapping on Ecutek next week...

 

He was looking at all of the pin-outs and emmissions/air pump control systems and how to work that in.... will be nice when they have it available.
