esl ecu question
 
how do you know an ecu is what the person claims it to be?

im looking at a couple and to me they look no drifferent to the standard board. is there anyway of me know if this is a esl unit?

Top right is a daughterboard.
Assuming you are after a live mappable board it maybe better to get a new one fitted and mapped as new features available such as mafless

my origional ecu had a board in place where the esl daughterboard was meant to go, it was soldered in and meant i couild nt get esl - i think it mightve been linked to the hks fcon unit my car had at the time?

what's the difference with this one ere then? I'm thinking about get one for myself would be good to know.

Thanks for the info.

So this isn't a remappable esl ecu then?

How much is for a mafless esl unit then? And how good are they?

O and what are the upgrades availible?

Thanks

it looks more like the live map board. the other one had mini eproms.
im sure there was only 2 boards made.

take a better pic showing just the board mate.
but to me, this is the live map one.

dabow 21 February 2010 12:21 PM

if its the esl board, it should say so on here:

I take it the new features are software and works on any esl live map boards ?

themoneypit 21 February 2010 01:10 PM

I cant take a picture of it, as it's one that I am thinking Of buying. So this is a live map ecu?and please excuse my ignorance but a live map is road or dyno mapping right?

Thanks

Live mappable means the map can be altered instantly whilst mapping rather than having to reblow an eeprom.
Your going to have to have a 2nd hand one mapped so factor cost into your budget.
