Ask your tuning questions here!

Just fill from the cheap side.

i wonder which one is correct.

The $2.189 sounds like what I would pay for gull 98 with 10% ethanol around here? Maybe that's the difference?

Edit: And just labelled incorrectly..

Is it going to be possible for me to get a mafless tune with rotational idle, and anti-lag/launch control on switch with a standard v7 sti ecu?

Are there any sonsors etc i should look at replacing? Map sensor? Boost solenoid will be replaced with a grimspeed 3 port probably. Sooo close now...

3 types of map sensor make sure you get the right one. The stock one will give you 22psi mgp iirc.

From a commodore? Will one of them just plug in? any point going over 20psi with just a vf30? Will contact phil again soon, and do some more research in the meantime

Just use what you have dude. Will be fine for that little snorter.

Yes I use carberry rom to go mafless. It takes a while to tune but you get all motorsport options as well. On factory car wouldn't change map sensor but you will need a air temp sensor after the intercooler

Hi guys, I've read through the first couple & last couple pages but not the whole thread so sorry if this has been asked before!

Where is the best place do get a stage 1 tune? I got a EJ203 Subaru Legacy imported from Japan and it's pinging. A mechanic at work said its due to japan using higher octane gas then here but I still get it even with 98

I've changed the sparkplugs & done a full service so I think its ready to go!

what spark plugs did you use when they were changed?

We replaced the oil, chucked a new air filter in & the spark plugs were iridium NGK ones. so it might need a new AFM as well?

What options are out there for V5 STi other than Link and ESL later this year?

WRC developments can tune the factory ecu; but not cheap.

Who is the best person cost vs results for v7sti tuning factory ecu . Auckland

Cost vs result it's probably tuning it yourself.

It costs nothing (once you have the gear, or borrow it) and the result is somewhere between perfectly fine and a melted motor.

That started well and ended horribly.

Kiwi fozze on here understands the whole reflash thing and seems happy enough to pass on knowledge hit him up at the next auck meet.

Alright then to restructure that i dont want some ridiculous figures or any wank factor , im spending the money to do the engine right and would like opinions on who would be the best person/people to talk to about having it re flashed . Its going to be a stock setup besides an exhaust and fuel pump . So im after reliabilty and a nice car to drive

What are the limitations with a laptop tunable 4 plug possum link? Can they run antilag? Launch control? Flat shift?

What else do I need to run this ecu correctly? e.g intake sensors? o2?

Antilag or laptop tune able. Only 1 or other. No intake sensor or o2 sensor needed. Very basic ecu. But what are your goals

Am i being a little noobish? Have got my ecu image "merp modded" and have it open in ecuflash. Theres a tick box for "speed density mode", and its set to maf sensor. I'm totally cabbaging, but am i right in assuming that this disables the speed density side of the tune and uses the standard maf sensor tables?

Really dont want to have to go through the nightmare of building ve tables and sd blend tables...

II dunno about goals tbh. I kinda knew when buying it that it probably wasn't going to be a "great" ecu. It was cheap. The engine is a fresh ej207 bottom with ej20k heads. I have ej20g/ej20r manifolds and grey/yellow injectors, A td05 16g 90 degree and 18g front facing, v1 top mount and front mount, fuelpump an exhaust blah blah. Not sure on which combo I want to run. Factory-ish setup so it's legal is what I'll probably try to run.
