1990timeismoney Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 Hi very new to these ecu's ive just brought one and wondering if its ok to run it with a sard rrfpr and at what pressure. the car runs and fuels great at moment so if i plug it in will the fuel need to be adjusted.Any help appreciatedThanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daniel_g Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 Is it the HRF P&P ECU or the HRF/Apexi PFC standalone ? And always recommended to get the fueling checked and adjusted. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AdamB Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 Will be fine to run with a FPR, always a good component to have to maximise your fuel setup. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
1990timeismoney Posted May 8, 2013 Author Share Posted May 8, 2013 Hi thanks for the replys its a hrf plug and play ecu I've got a wideband installed on the car so hopefully get it set up and running rightThanks for the replys Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AdamB Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 The plug and play's prefer stock fuel pressure so most people seem to say. Try it at 2.4 bar first and see how you get on. Most tend to run rich anyway so I doubt the fpr will need to be used Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Whitenoize Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 As said above you don't really need the fpr just check the fueling with your wideband I don't have a wideband with my plug and play it's next on the list I just took mine to dyno to get checked And it does run rich as said above but it's safe being the main thing Quote Link to post Share on other sites
1990timeismoney Posted May 8, 2013 Author Share Posted May 8, 2013 Ok thanks i don't have the stock fuel regulator at the moment so ill turn it down to stock boost whats sort of power will these make with a td04 setup Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Whitenoize Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 I'm not to sure about tdo4 tbh mate the plug and plays are more suited to ct9/hybrid but peopleDo run them with tdo4 I'm sure you could still run more than standard boost I'm not to sure about tdo4 tbh mate the plug and plays are more suited to ct9/hybrid but peopleDo run them with tdo4 I'm sure you could still run more than standard boost Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Amjad Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 Didn't think it would have flagged up a light Quote Link to post Share on other sites
1990timeismoney Posted May 30, 2013 Author Share Posted May 30, 2013 It starts but runs lumpy and is going full rich Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Whitenoize Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 Sounds like you have a mk1 gt hrf ecu the loom on a mk1 is slightly different so if your fitting it to a mk2 or mk3 ther is two wires you need to swap round Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Whitenoize Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 The wires you need to swap are connector 2 pin 7 and 15 on a mk1 the boost control is pin 7 and on mk2 and 3 it's pin 15 the early hrf plug and play ecus are mk1 specific Quote Link to post Share on other sites
1990timeismoney Posted May 30, 2013 Author Share Posted May 30, 2013 Oh ok thanks is it worth cutting the wires and what exactly are the wires that need to be swapped.Been a great help thanks very much Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Whitenoize Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 I've got a PDF file that shows you all the wires on the ecu plugs think it's the boost control that need swapped i will try and post the link for you not sure if I can do it on my phone tho Quote Link to post Share on other sites
