Is this still available? This one - http://shop.scoobynet.co.uk/Product.asp?ProductID=963

I have emailed the place and I got an automated response which was blank. I have also E-mailed Pavlo and the other guy whos name I can't remember Dave summat. I desperately need to order one so if it ain't available maybe it shouldn't be on the site, or maybe I'm just impatient :-]

Cheers.

Replied to your mail but it got returned straight away saying it was unable to send it. Heres the mail I sent - I have a 1994 Jap STi, decat downpipe and HKS mushroom filter. I recently got a boost gauge fitted and when it boosts in fifth sometimes it goes over the 15(psi I guess)on the gauge and jerks like a bast. I'm hoping the ECU will remedy this but either way I want one so I can run on just Optimax rather than that and octane booster. Do you have a direct email for David Wallis?. How do I stand now on receiving one off you seeing as you are all out of them?

Cheers, John.

P.s I didn't mean to sound ****ty about this on the forums, if it came across that way :-D

I'm getting your mail returned whatever mail client I use Pavlo, I've tried my NTL and Hotmail accounts and both got returned, I received your email fine though. Do you have an alternative email address?

I'm not chasing anyone David, I'm a customer and the product is advertised on this site. I will mail you after Xmas, unless either of you can point me in the direction of anyone that has them(Scott Taylor?).

Can't imagine there is much profit in the scoobyECU- I think these guys do it more as a hobby than anything. I can understand why they might feel it's all a bit too much hassle.
Just wait your turn and be nice and I'm sure you'll get one eventually-I couldn't wait so bought mine secondhand- £50 bargain of a lifetime IMHO.

Yes that was a bargain/lucky. I am being nice but you are being patronising.

I just wanted to know the situation and now I do, so It's sorted.

For the record Paul(Pavlo) has been really helpful and the majority of the problems here has been due to my email being toss. I want and will buy a ScoobyECU off either David or Paul when they are ready. If I seemed shi*ty that was never my intention and I apologise for that.

I am not pissed off to any great degree, no more than usual!

But I am wondering why people are getting bounced emails or blank replies, as I have answered EVERY email to the sales@cdtech.co.uk account.

Current status is there are no more boards left as of today as someone is sending in their ECU and getting the last one before new boards are manufactured in the new year.

Also, there is nothing currently available for 97-98 cars, although this MAY change in future, there is nothing specific planned.

proper crimbo

Paul

Pavlo,

Sent a few emails to that address (sales@) RE our conversation (I was the one asking questions as I had a FSE Boost valve).

All of a sudden stopped getting replies so wonder if there was/is an issue somewhere ?

Can you add me to the list for new yr as I have lined up a garage to bin the FSE valve when they do the rocker cover. Was going to whip the ecu out today but will obviously hang fire.

Cheers

there are solutions for 97-98, but more costly.

I did look at getting adaptor boards from Japan, but they want £250 just for the board, and that's before sorting a map to put in the board.

The 97-98 has an external memory interface, but its more complicated, and I (or noone else it seems) has the time to develop a solution. If one could at least get a pinout for the external memory connectors, it would be relatively simple, so far people have tried but just guessed.

Cheap, plug in ECU is available, but requires mapping, which adds to the cost.
