whats the cost on fitting a secondhand one and cost for tweaks after

also is there a cost for activating the lc and al ?

can you have switchable maps on this ecu

lastly are there a good ecu for a my02 uk sti , only looking to mod to about 380-400bhp

Im running a autronics ecu in my version 8 jdm running 440bhp, there a australian based company i believe, mine has been no probs at all, i picked mine up for £450/500 secondhand off here! I couldnt grumble at that price, the only thing i will say is about the cold start, my revs are a bit up and down until she gets warm, but i think this is the case with most aftermarket ecu's. Fitting is easy but for another £40/£50 you mayas well get the mapper to do it

I dont think you can have switchable maps, but scoobyclinic managed to put me in a high boost and low boost setting, but i dont think you can have a v power map and a meth mix map

I have Autronics fitted (Paul @ Zen Performance) and it has only ever had one problem where it lost the map......but apart from that the cold start and idle has been spot on........also the cool down function after the antilag is switched of is quite trick.....sounds like a rally car on rough idle.....

However i do think it may soon be up for sale as have heard such good things about the Syvecs....

Can't have switchable maps generally although FiestaBoy says it is possible (via him!) although a tad fiddly ... my car has switchable boost which is via the boost controller not the ECU. It's a good ECU for the money as costs way less than that one that the big power boys use (will come to me later!).

TX.

Edit - syvecs as noted above.

so better than standard , on par with simtek (although this does have more support) but not as good as syvecs ???

I think the autronics is a great ecu 4 the money, is the Syvecs ecu really woth all that extra money? I must admit, what is the difference between the 2 apart from dual maps?
