_shaun_ Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 tbh its worth speaking to who u plan on getting to map it. the maps only as good as the tuner regardless of system so find the best mapper u can and have a word with them about what they would sujest Quote Link to post Share on other sites

B11G KY Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 What about MegaSquirt Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mattyD Posted June 27, 2012 Author Share Posted June 27, 2012 sooooooo many choices think i will go with whatever the tuner recommends though as said they pretty much have all the same features these days so i spose it would just be a case of getting whatever they are comfortable with using Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Burny Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 I assume your just going to be running 1.4 bar that's what TD normally map their forged motors to? Is there any benefits of spending an extra £600 to get a standalone over an EMU? I'm curious myself mate, because it doesn't gain you any more power does it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mattyD Posted June 27, 2012 Author Share Posted June 27, 2012 il be going for at least 1.6 dude lol, nick reckons the turbo is capable of over 2 bar so il see what happens with 1.6 first ;)with regard to the difference in piggy back and standalone, i think with a standalone you get alot more features and the softwear inside is better allowing you to fine tune things and get a better map.........................................someone will probably be able to give you a better answer than that though lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Danb Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 mapping tables and how much control you have on the wolf absolutley wipes the floor over the emus, its also a plug and play loom and ecu, theres no need to go adding additional sensors in etc liek you have to do with other ecus like link/syvecs/dtas.But as everyone has said - each tuner has their own preferred ecu they like to work with, so find your tuner and go from there.

Burny Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 Yeah i understand the standalone has more control, but what does that gain you? Better driveability? Better air/fuel? More power? I dont really understand the benefits apart from its more programmable from the mappers point of view Quote Link to post Share on other sites
pick1 Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 As I understand it which is not that much with a standalone like wolf for instance with it being able to finely tune your car / engine it would there for create a better car i.e the way it's drives on the road the smoothness the boost etc everything can be tweaked that little bit more than say with the emu which could make the difference between a good car and a great car and I would presume that in turn with the ability to tweake those little bits it may or may not make much more power but make it more useable and reliablePlease correct me if I'm wrong Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AdamB Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 You could always gain that little bit more out of a standalone, every little piece is slightly better, but all those little pieces make a large gain. Mainly due to the control over components like injectors and coils, reducing the risk of det and gaining more power and a more useable vehicle. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bean Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 My car made 252 bhp on the emu at just over 1 bar I think it was. On the dta with exact same boost I'm sure it made 280 odd easily. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ForgedV Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 Reason why I went for a standalone ecu over any other was to do with the safety aspects thats built into the ecu with aswel as better mapping capabilities. I also needed a good boost controller aswel so got a link as they're built in with it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
