What's my best options?

 

I,ve had a couple of remaps by Steve of Dynodemon, Neston, Wirral. Can,t fault him. Steve.

 

Duncan Dynamix. Serach for him on here he Does mapping all over the country.

 

+1 for duncan

 

Are the MY99 ecu's mappable?

 

Duncan will be doing a map tweek hopefully in the next three weeks for me just off the M56 in Cheshire, if you are interested we could arrange with Duncan to do two and save him some travelling !!!
He is a top guy.

Steve

 

That is just down the road from me, could be ideal

 

Hi mate
I am only 5 mins from you on the way to Chester, Ashton Hayes so I'm sure we can sort something out.

Steve

 

any ideas?

 

Yes, by EcuTek (and Open Source - I think).

 

MY99 Can only be mapped by Ecutek, better going for a simtek and getting rid of the maf

 

Was going to buy a new maf anyway so might be a good idea! Any idea on the different costs?

 

Ecutek 1st map (inc license), around £650.

MY99 "green stripe/post-2006 MAF" (the good one!), £100+ from ICP.


Simtek, around £1000 fitted/mapped.

 

Why would it be better going for a simtek then if it will cost me around £250 more

 

Had a chat today, I think it was Duncan,

Turns out he doesn't do Ecutek mapping so if I was to use him I'd have to go for the Simtek or some other open source ECU

I don't think it is worth the extra £250 that it will cost me so I'm not sure which way to go with it now....

 

YHM...

 

You would get some of the £250 back by not having to replace the maf, also you can run an induction kit without worrying about it contaminating the maf

 

It's £650 for the Ectek + MAF
or £900 or more for the Simtek so it is £250 difference after buying the new MAF

 

Try Prosport in stockport,Manchester or the RacingLine in halifax, or even Carplanet in warrington .
But if you want the best give Bob rawle a ring (BR developement) as he does travel to you

also yr missing to point with the Simtec........ as its a stand alone ecu, with Ecutek is just mapping the oem ecu.

 

apexi .......................... for sure

 

But what benefit would the standalone give me? For when I want to revert to standard or...

Did a google for BR developement but came up with nothing - you got a link please mate?

Thx

 

with a stand alone ecu (simtek , motec etc etc ) there are much more tune-able than the oem ecu....speak to whoever you choose to map yr car as they will explain the options better than me.

bob is well know as one of the best mappers(if not the best) for ecutek,simtek etc etc in the UK.

But beware he is in demand so there is a waiting time of around 1-2 months.

i would say try Prosport in heaton mersey, stockport first as they are nearer to you

 

Have a secondhand Apexi PowerFc if of interest

Simon

 

The first thing is what are you after power wise?

Tony

 

Not too bothered power wise as I'm keeping the original turbo, he says, lol...
But would like to sports decat as have already got full stainless up to the down pipe at the moment.
But would like to make sure it's running well mainly as I'm sure it's over boosting st the moment already

 

do what i done if you dont wanna spend hefty money, just got a prodrive ECU for it £200 straight plug n play, transforms a std my99 into very nice daily driver - plenty of midrange torque increase.

and it can even run on 95RON fuel if you want

 

That sounds like a great plan. £200 second hand?

 

i had mine done by steve dyno demon
been very happy with the map


mines a 99 my aswell

i also have a couple of spare mafs if you get stuck

 

Where's he based?

 

aye, just stick a wanted ad up for 1 and you get'll somebody offering it.

this is the prodrive ecu for 99 cars
