winchboi Posted June 28, 2010 Posted June 28, 2010 Hi i have just installed a tubular corrolla manifold on my EP91 1998 Starlet, should i put the corolla ECU on my starlet ?or do i have to re-set the ECU ? if so how ?Cheers Karl Quote
ToyotaTech15 Posted June 28, 2010 Posted June 28, 2010 Your starlet ecu will be fine and won't need reset or anything,are you have problems with it running?Gary Quote
LukeSR Posted June 28, 2010 Posted June 28, 2010 I didn't reset my ECU, just left it to idle for 10-15 minutes then took it for a drive Quote
winchboi Posted June 28, 2010 Author Posted June 28, 2010 No everythings running fine but i just read things on different websites about different ECUs and Resetting the standard, i didnt know what to belive .realisticly how much power would i have gained from a cold air induction with cone filter and the corolla manifold ??and also is there any advantage to wrapping the standard exhaust manifold with the heat shield stuff ? lolcheers karl Quote
Amjad Posted June 28, 2010 Posted June 28, 2010 You've probably gained around 10bhp on a healthy engine I would imagine.I don't know about wrapping the exhaust components, but some fresh spark plugs and oil will get the car running sweet. If you want to go further, get a Cat-back exhaust (2" diameter) the response is really nice with that setup on mine. Quote
winchboi Posted June 28, 2010 Author Posted June 28, 2010 Fair Enough would it be worth getting the injectors and ecu off the corolla i took the manifold off ? or will there be no difference in performance ? sorry for all the questions but im no mechanic LOL cheerss Quote
ryan lang Posted June 28, 2010 Posted June 28, 2010 nah you shouldnt have to change anything dude, just the manifold itself is fine Quote
ste91 Posted June 28, 2010 Posted June 28, 2010 Stop posting about it go out and rag the shit out of it. Quote
ryan lang Posted June 28, 2010 Posted June 28, 2010 did you use a new pipe for 1 of the sensors or leave it unplugged tho? Quote
Amjad Posted June 28, 2010 Posted June 28, 2010 Ooh about injectors and ECU, I don't think you'll see a difference, but the 1st Generation 4efe injectors give slightly better power top-end. See redz11's build thread Quote
winchboi Posted June 28, 2010 Author Posted June 28, 2010 did you use a new pipe for 1 of the sensors or leave it unplugged tho? What Sensor do you mean ?? Quote
Amjad Posted June 28, 2010 Posted June 28, 2010 The MAP sensor on the firewall, the corolla mani requires a longer vacuum hose to get to the MAP sensor.. Quote
winchboi Posted June 28, 2010 Author Posted June 28, 2010 Oh Yea . .i used a longer tube . . seems to drink petrol . . . . but might just be me flooring it to hear that noise Quote
Amjad Posted June 29, 2010 Posted June 29, 2010 Try to keep revs below 4k if you wanna save fuel Quote
