i recently bought a ecu for my 94 classic its supposed to be a esl daughterboard mapped by scoobyclinic does the pic look about right and is it the mafless type or not that ive read about also can i just plug this ecu straight into my car without anything else
soz for all questions


help always appreciated

 

soz about pooor pic cant get my photobucket to work properly

 

i saw this on ebay.i just got a z5 ecu with a 27C1028 Fujitsu Eprom CHIP i just put it in today but not tryd it yet

 

yep thats where i got it guy sounded genuine enough just want to make sure its real deal if not ill wrap it round his neck didnt no u could get a z5 ecu

 

isnt that the orginal scoobyecu board

 

dont no much about ecus it says on it scoobyecu.co.uk he says its a esl daughterboard mapped by scoobyclinic ??

 

ScoobyECU

 

You could always PM The Gaffer Kev at Scoobyclinic and ask him directly.

or

Speak to Andy at ESL


HTH

 

pmd the gaffer it looks like all the esl daughterboards are green so how is this one red???


thanks

 

i saw this on ebay it didn't say anywhere about it being a esl board.

 

it said on ebay genuine ecu daughterboard but he sent me a message saying was a esl daughterboard so what is it ive bought and was it worth it compared to my z4 ecu it also says its mappable and i believe my z4 isnt

thanks for replys peeps

 

up

 

dosent look like my ESL daughterboard. mines green.....

 

after sum searching its a ecu daughterboard anyone no if this is remappable if i add further mods as was mapped by scoobyclinic to 320 bhp with caik decat and td05 so the guy says

 

any more info anyone??

thanks

 

i thought more people new about ecus ???

 

thats not the esl remappable board

 

Its a ScoobyECU: either an original one or a new Polar Performance part. Scott Taylor is/was behind both, so youll be better off talking to him. ESL now work with Scott, but they had nothing to do with the original ScoobyECU at all.

In fairness: having only supplied a crap small picture and little worthwhile information: youve not helped yourself have you?

 

ok heres a better pic if it works what kind of ecu is it as is it remappable for further mods as has been remapped already to 320 so the guy said with a decat ik and td05 or have i just wasted my money

 

was remapped by scoobyclinic so the guy says

 

come on guys sum one must no about these ecus

 

im pretty sure these arnt mappable just a generic chip, as said though best person to talk to would be Scott T at Polar Perfomance as he was one of the creators of the Scoobyecu, with full decat tdo5 with a good condition engine you probably see about 280/290 id say

 

how do i get hold of scott is he on here?? has anyone else on here got this ecu??

thanks

Hundreds and hundreds of people have a ScoobyECU either an early one or a Polar Perfromance one, and I suspect that virtually all are happy.

We do - a number of people have clearly said that its a 'ScoobyECU', which is not a 'live mappable' product.

 

how different does it compare to my z4 ecu and is it worth keeping or have i wasted my money compared to the z4 that i have as hadnt fitted this ecu yet as dont want to till i find out more info about it i no i no should of done my homework before i bought it or and asked on here also how cant it be remapped once but not a second time soz i dont no much about ecus not yet anyway im learning


thanks

 

Its much better than a Z4, but its a generic product. The mappable board that ESL developed (with Scott, I think) is always going to be better, but its well short of the original ECUs value for money, in my opinion. By the time youre done the ESL kit will cost almost as much a an A'PEXi PowerFC ECU used to cost!

Remember too that the ESL board would have needed mapping to suit your own car (the very point of a live-mappable solution over a generic solution) and thisd have cost you a further £250-ish. This would have been necessary as the existing settings might have been so unsuitable for your car as to have killed it. The beauty of a generic ScoobyECU is that theyll give you a still-substantial improvement, whilst suiting all cars.

Scott Taylor (Scott T. here) will be able to tell you exactly what is what.

JECS Z4 ECU = 255bhp - Any early Classic JECS ECU + ScoobyEU = 260 - 300bhp, depending on your car and turbocharger. Your car will be at the higher end as it has a larger turbo.
