nazzurro19 Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 right i have just sacrificed my xbox and all my accessories and all 45 of my games and im nearly got enough to buy an ECU i know of a couple of jam units now ive read up the specs etcuplifted fuel cut1.1 bar compatible (can i push to 1.2 for strip runs?)higher rev limitbut what are peoples honest opinions?should i bother with a wideband ? will i need a RRFPR or a walbro ? and is it really worth my £500 or should i save a lil longer and maybe td04 etc?can it be run with a hybrid and stil fuel ok etc or then would i need to think of RRFPR etc?and and lastly this is my plan buy it plug it in run 1 bar and occasionally 1.1-1.2 for racing , then run this set up for a while why i save up for a td04 EMB etc? is this a good plan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ktl Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 mate i had a jam ecu and got 230hp with my td04 1.1bar. 210hp with my hybrid @ 1.1baraslong as you get it fuel checked it be ok. but its not worth 500quid, i paid £400 back in the day.no need for rrfpr. everything standard. you do with a upgraded fuel pump Quote Link to post Share on other sites
_shaun_ Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 there great id get the fueling checked to be safe and if its off then ull need a rrfpr. dont need a walbro but would be nice to have. IMO there well worth the £500 u can use it have some fun and when u got funds for td04 and emb then u wont have a prob reselling it for the £500 u paid Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nazzurro19 Posted January 26, 2011 Author Share Posted January 26, 2011 if i go to a rolling road place is it guna be like £100 quid to get it checked ? ha cause after i buy a jam (if i do ill b skint)so do you think ktl it was worth it ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
_shaun_ Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 from what ive read lot of people dont get it checked at all or run it for awhile before getting it checked . am running a blitz acess on a td04 at 1bar atm and its fueling perfectly i just got it checked for peace of mind Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ktl Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 i would get it checked, what if its under fueling ? piece of mind imo other wise your engine could go bang.Now i advice to just go o9ut and buy a aem wideband. for £150 it can save your engine and save you future money i.e paying £100 to get fueling checked.Or another option is to,,, get all your mods done then whack the ecu then go tuners. if you buy ecu now whack it in pay £100. then you want more power i.e more boost then you ll have to pay another £100 afterwards.see where im coming from now ? £100 every time you change something. so its worth paying for a wideband.

nazzurro19 Posted January 26, 2011 Author Share Posted January 26, 2011 wel id have to pay to get a wideband fitted anyway as i cant weld lolis it expensive to get fuelling checked ? is it a test i can do ?i really really want to kick my mates starlet in his hybrid emb - he ran a high 14 at pod and i reckon i can beat him lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
madmax_926 Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 in my own opinion thouroughly impressed with mine, making 190bhp on standard turbo at 0.9 cant wait to get a tongs turbo on it. no costly remapps etc. i think this are worth the money all day long. fuels my car spot on. hayes dynotech were also very impressed with it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ktl Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 my mate got 14.2 under fuel cutat santapod. i wouldnt worry about pod, track its where its at lol.al you do is drill a small hole, goto your local welder/mechanic and get him to weld the bung onto it, screw the sensor. wire it up i.e red to red black to black. job done. easy mate. again its about £100 i think Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nazzurro19 Posted January 26, 2011 Author Share Posted January 26, 2011 madmax what did you pay to get the fuellig checked ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
madmax_926 Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 i paid 50 for 11 runs on the dyno at hayes dyno tech in erith really good people but its missions from you lol you will not regret gettin this ecu trust me every mod you fit it will learn within reason trust go for it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Amjad Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 11 runs for £50 is cheap! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nazzurro19 Posted January 26, 2011 Author Share Posted January 26, 2011 ill ring around n see how much it wud be say i wanted to run 1.4 then id defo have to go for a rrfpr etc wudnt i Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ktl Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 ill ring around n see how much it wud be say i wanted to run 1.4 then id defo have to go for a rrfpr etc wudnt inot really, depends what fueling the ecu can give out.i was running correct fuel at 1.1 bar, any more boost would be bad @ td04.again its all to do with the fueling and the detting (google it if you want to know more) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

madmax_926 Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 11 runs for £50 is cheap! the only reason they did that many was because they where so shocked by my power on the car and where so impressed with the ecu. When i arrived he said "what power do you estimate?" i said "180 i hope"he said "no chance we had a ep91 with loads of mods and a apexi ecu and it only made 210"when he had it on the rollers he started chuckling to himself and said you got a nippy little car here mate and kept running it. was well impressed with the ecu.

madmax_926 Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 if your still undecided i have the perfect spam for you saw this on the tgtt website when all the jam boys where arguing with all the standalone guys and some one made this i keep posting this lately its pretty dumb but made me laugh the 1st time i watched it: anyway if your staying on ct9 for a while and aiming for 200bhp a jam, mines ecu is perfect for this and at the price of £500 imo is great value for money Quote Link to post Share on other sites
