My99 ECULABS
 
I see eculabs is now another option for mapping late classics instead of ecutek.
Anybody used it or had their car mapped via that software ..??

bustaMOVEs 29 March 2015 05:49 PM

No, but this is the route im probably gonna go seen as esl hasnt pulled their finger out re 98-99 cars

Why would you want to run Apexi, its yester-years ecu.

Eculabs have all the features of esl inc maffless, lc, ffs etc

Apexi is old tech now chap, from what I've read about eculabs it offers more than an apexi can.

Reason I'm asking is I have a pal who will be ready for mapping in the coming weeks.
My initial thought for him was ecutek but after reading a bit on eculabs I thought I'd see what people thought.

I'm in the same boat matty, regarding a my00 type r and was looking at options to go mafless, and it's only ecutek, syvecs, alatek and eculabs.

The alatek and syvecs are out of my price range for the features I want, so left me with ecutek and eculabs. Ecutek don't do mafless function and the problematic maf problems when heading for reasonable power.
So found option for eculabs, seems to have all the functions of esl with simlar price bracket, so no brainier really.

But I also would like to hear people's opinions of this as it's not really talked about so I'm presuming it's a newish chip/software.

I gone Apexi as I got a very close friend that does it , so I haven't got to pay for tweeks and I can change it really simple , he won't buy the French ecu labs software

I have had a few glitches tho in my ecu , my vf28 went tits up so I gone back to my prodrive sp ecu and td04 for now

taylor85 29 March 2015 08:04 PM

You can buy the software and a ecu ready to go if your that way inclined

Mocom racing in Cambridge is well known for offering this

taylor85 31 March 2015 03:17 PM

No problem ! Don't worry if you can't get hold of him

Check YouTube for a couple of his videos

Mocom aren't based at Cambridge as far as I know, they are near Sudbury I believe.
They offer a service where you send your ecu to them and they'll upload the eculabs software and then send it back. Think its around £300. You can then map it yourself or have your chosen mapper do it.

I was just interested to see if anyone was using it and if any of the known mappers within the Subaru world use it ??

taylor85 31 March 2015 05:45 PM

Well it's a cb postcode I think so that's close enough !

I think someone up north does it too , there is a slave file pusher in huntingdon doing it I think

taylor85 31 March 2015 06:06 PM

I'm way off then lol

bustaMOVEs 31 March 2015 06:57 PM

Andrew Carr does it afaik.

veerinder9 01 April 2015 07:58 PM

I'd probably find a second hand alcatek and have that mapped

euan_r 01 April 2015 08:42 PM

just send it direct to france, good exchange rate. Mine was back in no time at all. Choose your own mapper the software is just interface to the usual tables with a few small difference for per gear boost etc.

see martyn is on support forum.
